Controverse opinions here, the last 3 posts.
First, to Ed:
Thank you for your heads up! I am not satisfied with this first version. But, it already seems to work like I want when I read what you wrote A strange red atmosphere, and the lava as the clear sign that something is very very wrong.
And to Eric:
You nail what I think too: 1st version is a try getting a look. It works (at least I think so) to an extent, but is ambiguous so it can also be mistaken for a color cast. Not inevitably, but as I the thread shows, possibly.
Now speaking to all:
Yesterday I did not answer to the toned down versions. I do not like them as I felt it would somehow wash down my idea of what I had in mind with it. Nevertheless I played with that, trying to partially take the reds out, but didnt liked the outcome, a bad compromise. So I decided to show here an older version without reds and lava, an old b/w version, and my most recent image wich I like most, still work in progress. This is of course no longer subtle. The more "supernatural" elements being introduced, the less subtle it gets. Im a bit surprised, I was so sure the first version was final, and now Im still altering it more and more...
