Childhood Dreams

*Phew*

Firstly, this is for *JustinByerline-Stock's manipulation contest. I really wasn't planning on making my entry so soon, but I saw the stock photo of this little girl and wanted to make something right that second. [Taking those trees out was a pain ]

Anyways, I wanted to convey the 'magic' (for lack of a better word...) of childhood. The whole "dreams come true" & "anythings possible" mentality. I miss it


(Oh, and this is pretty much what I was like when I was little... Always had a thing for astronomy; I still do )



And because all the stockers allow their works to be used as prints, it's available if anyone wants it
-- Girl and 'lower' clouds
-- 'Upper' section of clouds & star (aka fireworks)







Feedback would be hugely appreciated so I can improve
