In spite of several attempts, I especially suck about background as always. I wanted something of... empty, neutral, melancholy... keeping natural light (I find clichés about dead trees, evening light and similar filters so boring).

The opacity of the fog needs a bit more variance but the scene it self is entirely credible and doesn't look like an assembled piece from stock photos at all.
I take note about the fog. I always try to make my photo manipulations "real" (although rooted in fantasy or with elements of fantasy), like true scenes indeed (reinforced by the fact that I rarely use additional filters or stuff like that). It demands good/high quality stocks as I work large sizes also.
Hi, when I wrote my first comment I was heading out the door. The Only part of your fog that I felt was weak was the line of it above the rocks and that was only noticeable because the fog on the other side of the ship looked more natural. The figures worked well together and unless stated as you did made a nice cohesive whole.
I made like that in order not to have the fog like a curtain (without a definite line). The idea was that the fog is... all around/behind (between fog and clouds), keeping the foreground neat. The other idea was to keep the focus on the foreground, the rest is oblivion... More concrete backgrounds was disturbing and didn't work as well as fog for the scene, I think.
Thanks for the comment and the . The flower is... what we leave behind... or what keeps us alive... ... It's important here anyway (it's not clear if the flower is left or found here, I mean).

Thank you.
Looks very interesting.
I don't like the flower.
But your edit is really cool!

I wanted to use more elements from your stock (the tree in the night, the fjord...), but... it didn't work here, I think. Later, perhaps.
