Here I refined the buildings and added some new ones to the scene. I got rid of the street lights and separated the background so later on I could simply paste in the new one.
2. Adding atmospheric effects and complementary elements to the scene. This is the part where the the whole of the background becomes a complete image itself. The details - we wouldn’t notice seperately, but would miss if they weren’t there - are applied in this phase.
The sky and clouds. This sky was composited from three photos, this is why it seems like there are two suns. By adding two major (but not equivalent) lightsources the background got a more exciting look and a feeling of motion at the same time.
Volumetric lights applied by adding rays of light.
Highliting the areas where the lightrays reach the surface of the ground.
