2.5 Hours - Photoshop - I was looking for that highly saturated look of the image burn you see in nuclear explosion footage. - Hope you guys like it.

PS: Not everything is drawn, the boats and nuclear bomb are added but were tweaked with brushes.

It's just a chance opportunity I took, thanks for the complements guys.

Feel free to delete this then if it's not satisfactory to the requirements and I'll do a proper drawing/painting.

In the spirit of Christmas, I'll leave this posted, but I will have to disqualify it. Pasting isn't allowed.
It is nice, though.

Hey, I'm no admin, just spouting my own mind.
I'd say yeah, do another, or go exercise! This is on subject and great to see.
We don't want you to win the prise either.. heh heh heh

Am I allowed to add more than one submission per topic?

Also, is a topic limited to 24 hours?

Do my questions apply to normal and competition topics?

I like the composition, and the weird color. Specially the little blue between the blast and the beach, like you can see the purple blast hitting the shore and the people. The shadows of the people tell the strong light. I like that detail, it's a little thing that tells so much. It makes them connect with the blast, without it they would just be observing it.

Thanks so much Cyclops!

In my mind, I could only imagine a father with his two children, on the beach, their innocence in the matter outlining how any of us could succumb to something so horrible yet beautiful...The high contrast of the lighting and the shadows being the snapshot of their last moments before the heat wave would reach them.

Thanks again for the in-depth look, I appreciate that you took the time. =)
