Think not that I will fall to ground
and give my life so easily.
Though death awaits an erring hand,
and I may not win victory,
I meet your eye, I raise my sword.
So let this desperate fight be done,
and let the earth run red with blood—
in this hour, I will not falter.
-verse by Carolyn Adams

Elle beset by two red dragons battles desperately for her life. The sky is, of course, the background layer to which the castle ruins and foreground is added. Two images of a small, hand-painted dragon are added enhanced with movement blur added in Photoshop. Elle is inserted in her own layer between the two adversaries. Blood, dust and earth clots kicked up by the action is added in different layers to add realism. Five photographs and 17 image and adjustment layers were needed to create the battle scene.
