Hello everyone and welcome back to Let's Make a Collage ("LMAC"). For this week's collage, we have an industrial plant situated on the outskirts of town hidden away besides a hillside. This will be an unusual theme to capture the look and feel of the contest photo.
To protect the town's refinery, it was a good idea to place the refinery away from the city. However, an unusual occurrence took place. One year, the workers encountered a strange spacecraft hovering over the worksite. They scrambled and were able to escape via the nearby waterway. One brave soul stood his ground.
Puzzled the alien didn't pursue into the water, the worker surmised that it must be a weakness. In order to protect himself, he summoned the sea god, overseer of the creatures. Thankful to the town and the workers for not polluting their waters, the sea god was willing to help save the town and refinery.
The sea god offered a sacrifice of it's most precious food resource. Not knowing whether the alien would accept the octopus, he offered it as a sacrifice nonetheless. The alien was drunk with delight and couldn't consume enough. Thanks to the quick thinking of the brave worker, the town and refinery was saved.
To create the setting, I started with the photograph provided by

I located a nice background to represent the alien. It's always the eyes that fascinate me in photos.

To create the collage, I uploaded both the contest photo, background and all images into Canva. I utilize Canva since I have an Annual Pro Membership Subscription that allows me to remove backgrounds, apply filters, resize, and utilize its other tools.
I used the program DeepDreamGenerator to add some flavor to the alien to give it another layer of mystery and other worldliness.
Next, I added the other images, arranging them to present an alien at the top of the image with the water element in the center, and the industrial plant as part of the landscape.
