Description
Autumn is on the wane. The Hollow is seeing heavy frosts now. There is a bite to the wind and a smell of winter in the air. This is the time of year that sometimes there are unsavory characters seeking the Hollow's shelter for the winter. We don't often see the Centaur folk through the spring and summer, but in the fall and winter they are more evident.Guard duty escalates now.
This is my photo for the background and foreground. The horse's body from Stolta found at (I think) grannycharacters.blogspot
The upper body is from mjranum, found at
mjranum-stock aydeviantart, photographer being Marcus Ranum who also has a private website.
Of course the figures were whole .. until with a bit of digital manipulation I was finally able to convince the two that they would make a great centaur!
Many thanks for the all the faves, and esepecially the wonderful and much treasured comments on the previous post.

You did a super job on the centaur. Great image! Yeah, I went out to run the dogs this morning & everything was frozen. I guess someone forgot to stoke the furnace. ;)
Excellent job!!!
cool composition
SO clever and I want some in my garden.
Would be lovely to see the centaur folk at the hollow. Amazing work Rita. xx
Very beautiful fantasy scene and mood, Rita!!!
this is wonderful done.
This is a fantastic pic Rita, you really did great. Keep us in your prayers as we rescued a little poodle yesterday that is in bad shape
FANTASTICAL creation ! on the lilliputt's landscape ?
superb and artistic creation !!
Oh, my gosh, Rita! This one is stupendous...the depth, the realism, the focus....it's just so, darn good!! I love it. Oh, please do a bunch more like this. It's like magic, stepping right into the other world...love it!
very well done centaur! looks super in your garden pic..
Very good work We need more of them around
Love how you integrate different figures in your landscape photos. I would like to meet a centaur some time, guess it has to be in a dream. Your composition looks so real, great work!
Excellent work here, the centaur is great my friend, lovely background, congratulations!
Excellent image, Rita. The centaur came out very well, and I may add, convincing. I love your evolving mythos of the Hollow, it is outstanding!!!!!
you did a fantastic job merging all this into one... are you sure Centaurs only come around that time of the year??? I thought they hung around a lot in december and owned that time of year - lol.... and, I have reason to believe they hang around throughout the year - I'm married to one - lol.... and we make a cute couple because I'm Taurus the Bull - lol
How fun.. very nice job :)
Awesome mix Rita!
