This image was done for a calender I'm doing, I started off with an ideal of a female elf using magic but not really out in the open. I use Poser 6 to set up the elven girl and the background, then rendered the images without the shadow, going back and rendered the shadow later on. Found it is easer to work with in that form. Putting everything together in PhotoShop CS2 and adding the Fog in last.
