Glinda the Good Witch

I tried to take an image of the sun through the trees early morning. However, I ended up with this obviously massive lens flare, pretty much ruining the shot. Then I got to thinking that the flare looked a lot like the bubble in which Glinda the Good Witch arrived in Oz. Soooo..... here she is, arriving in Montan-Oz! She's the only addition I made to the image - the rest is as it was shot. Enjoy, and follow your yellow brick road!

Really creative and nicely done. If I may suggest, why not make everything within the bubble Spring time. Since the magic has made the light inside the bubble warmer than the cold winter light outside the bubble then the snow could be green grass, from the magic as well. Besides I don't think Glenda would want to get her delicate slippers wet in all that snow.

Great idea! And a real editing challenge.

Cool idea! If you've Photoshop, you could select, copy, and create a new layer with bubble and passenger, study how bubbles distort, then Edit/Transform/Warp and add color changes as needed.

Wow, some really cool and challenging ideas! I love Keni's suggestion about springtime, and ArtBob's idea of warp inside the bubble could really move this little whimsy to the next level. Well, I know what I'll be doing this afternoon!

Perhaps put a Christmas scene inside the bubble. Santa, Christmas tree, snow bunny, or related object to a snow scene.

You have gotten some really great suggestion. I'll withhold comment until I see the finished version. Have fun, you have a great start to work with.
