We had a fall themed wallpaper contest, yeah I know they motivate me :P, but I wanted to do something with a sunset. Actually this is a sunrise, a stock picture my mother took while camping, but hey! it works ;P The water was a bit difficult and I ended up having to rotate the images around to get the desired light refraction that it finally ended with. I looked at a lot of different images to get a realistic yet drawn feel to what I drew in myself. The sunset is probably about 6 or 7 layers with every different effect I could find. It took longer than I expected, but its finally done and I like it. Special thanks to Muzzy Von Doom for the critiques along the way, and for constantly telling me that the sunset isn't good enough :P I go by Princess Minako on AnimeGalleries.net
