It's taken me a long time to make anything worth uploading this time around. But finally I made something good enough. Feel free to use it on your own desktop if you like!

That looks really good. Your blending/editing is terrific.

^I can only agree. It looks amazing. I really like the black/white/colour effect. Keep up the great work!

Thanks for the compliments! Cutting out the hobbits was pretty easy with Photoshop but putting the fake shadows in was a bit harder!

Did you use lighting to put the shadows in?

No, I used a really lengthy method involving a layer mask and a gradient fill. Is there a quick method I should know about?

Personally, I would use brushes and textures.

Well, I got a new (widescreen) monitor, so now I'm making my desktops in widescreen.
Hard to get the lighting looking right in this one.
