*APPLAUSE!!!*
Man, very nice! (again)
I tried to pull this image out existing of a lot of stock images but the task was a bit to difficult for me now
But mattepainting is the perfect solution, going to practice with it a bit more.
Ontopic: The water looks nice, all painted with brushes?

Watched one too many "End-of-the-World" movies, perhaps...?
Neat concept, in any event.

I love this for both the detail in the pic and the subject. The touch of irony that the car in the pic is a Toyota Prius is great. I also like the contrast between the still shimmering bright high towers compaired to the lower jungle like feel on the street.... er, river I should say. What would have made it funnier is if only a block down you could spy yet another Starbuck's sign. *snerk*

Geez I really love mattepainting, it's so impressive.
You're quite good in that style.
This picture reminds me of a book titled "Temps de chien" in french, dealing with a post-apocalyptic world in which all cities are semi-covered by water, and people have to live in the highest skyscrapers, moving thanks ropes and grapples, and travelling by improbable airships.
Anyway, the growing vegetation is impressively realistic.
Good job

There's so much to adore about this pic, the outstanding detail, the incredible realism, and the end of the world feel to it that makes me so happy ^^ This is absolutely amazing. I wish I could be a tenth as good as you
