Description
Thanks to everyone who offered suggestions on how to make this a more realistic image. I made massive changes while trying to keep the basic idea.
I'm much happier with this version.What do you think? Do you prefer this one or the WIP?

Oh Carol, you hit the balance just right here! Such a delicate harmony of colours in just the right saturation, and the misty mountains add so much more. Colour and atmosphere in just the right measure, spot on :-)
I definitely prefer this one! The first one was beautiful, but this has so perfect balance and harmony, as Jim says above. I love these colors, they glow now! The background mountains are shown so splendidly. Mysterious cavalcade in mystic woods.... Wonderful job!
This one, you did a wonderful work. As Jim says, spot on!! You added a great mystical mood to it, bravo!!!
Really lovely work
One of the best "Mood" images I have seen. Very cool, excellent shadows, and soft glows. Quality here!
ohh....Excellent work....i love lighting and shadows....so cool...
This one achieves everything you were aiming for! Wonderfully mystical feeling, great depth too, the colours & focus are excellent!
Difficult to say for me whitch one I like better...The light in the first has been more warm and I liked the moon a lot...the foggy ground in this one is wonderful...fantastic artwork of course!
I like the many figures and the lower height of them... but I definitely prefair the lighting of the previous! As or as, I just love your warm handwork -- none will do this dark sugette with such love only you can give through :-)
Oh wow!!! U did such an amazing job here Carol!! I definitely prefer this one too!! I loved the colors of the first one but this one is so moody that it makes it much more interesting IMHO! Excellent!
exceptional work on both, well done!
I think you have one masterwork here :) ! Congratulations for magnificent finish to magnificent image! :)
Truly incredible and magical. What rich colours and atmosphere. Very serene and entrancing. Vote!!!
Wonderful haunting image and delightfully executed.
A dream... I thought once saw... but, alas... it was just a dream.
