Maybe overlap the foreground with the mid ground so it comes full circle. And once again, use a perspective grid now that you're working up a comp. You're already starting to lose it and misalign things, you've sunk your horizon line, the main arch looks too flat and you've also lost the background values of the distant formations leaving an uninteresting hole in the middle of the image. Go back to your original and have a look. Which one has more depth and a clearer horizon? When you use atmospheric perspective, think about why you are doing it. It pushes things back, so if things don't need to be pushed back don't push them back.
Oh ok yeh i know what you mean there, i was thinking perhaps that it drew too much focus, but I dunno i though that the out of focus splashing would look cool :)
What do you mean with 'overlapping', the two are already pretty overlapped?
I set up a perspective grid for this one, what looks wrong with it? What have I done wrong here? Got a cool brush that sets it up for me :)
I know what you mean about the background, will make it brighter to highlight the distant arches.
Ok, will work on it, and will update :P
Cheers.
