Very difficult shooting without flash led to fair results. So what do you do when you have scraps? Make a sandwich.

LoveLife, that's one of the best composite images I've seen. I like the realistic nature, you didn't make it silly. Having the ballerina not completely in the frame on the right helps make it realistic, too. I would only draw your attention to the transition between her foot and the floor/background in the leftmost image. Looks like it could use a little touchup. But it's excellent work!

Thank you for looking and viewing, this is not easy work. I made a touch up is that better?

I agree, it's definitely not easy work! This merge in particular is very ambitious I think, especially on the stage top end.

Since you replaced your first image with your second, I'm not sure what you changed. This image shows the tiny area I was referring to in my first post. Also it indicates some visible cloning I now see in your image.

Here I touched up that tiny area so you can see what I mean

I know it's a tiny area! But to my eye, anyway, it's those tiny things that make me think, this is fake ...
Keep up the good work. I'm still learning in PP too. I'm beginning to think it's a lifelong study ... :rolleyes:
