Thanks Lee, Michael and Nico. The background is an old 3D Aeroflot poster of St Basil's Cathedral and part of the Kremlin. I tried to set up the angle and DOF to give the illusion of looking out a window on to Red Square. Glad you all liked it! CJ

Wow, that is one cool scene... and the backdrop is perfect. Compliments and regards ~jnconradie

I too like this, well done. I'm assuming you used a book or previously taken photograph for the background...the DOF has worked nicely to make the whole feel natural but atmospheric. -Michael

Oopss myself, I meant cross processing to give it an older feel... Matt

Oops! Sorry about the name - no, this isn't a composite, just an arrangement of my various Russian souvenirs. I'll see if there are any pp effects that might enhance this - any suggerstions? CJ

Who ever you are, I'd try a post-processed effect on the picture. It is very good idea though. Is it a composite or a real view?
