Traditionally each year I prepare a little home-made calendar for my family back in Russia.
Mostly pictures of the kids, nothing fancy.

This year, however, I think I came out with a pretty good sunrise/sunset idea for the front/back covers, so I wanted to share:-)

Front Cover:

Back Cover:

What I like about them - the type layers actually lie on top of the landscape ones, yet they appear being behind. And no tedious manual masking!:-)

    Nice shots :) Only thing I noticed that can be tweaked is the reflection of the 2 in the water.
