Hy @Loopysue thanks!

Using Adobe Lightroom, above and below I used graduated filter to darken by lowering the exposure.

in the middle - the mill and in some houses I used the radial filter to increase the exposure and "draw attention" to the buildings.

in the end, I increased the shadows in the corners using circular vignette.

Hey @Royal Scribe Beautiful work! Note that in the first image, the waterfall is not in the foreground.

In the second drawing, very beautiful by the way, you can improve it even further by using the trees or other symbols to "hide" the junctions of image with screen, or image with image. Note the points below.

Also, if you want to show an apparent "use" of the magic circle of stones, you can leave it without grass and create a special sheet, above all, to use a hill background or mountain background and give the appearance of a ground "trampled".

Congratulations!

I always start with the mountains when I make my maps. Some styles trees and icons go on the same Sheet = SYMBOLS, in other styles, for example Mike Schley, the trees always go on the SYMBOLS TREES sheet. This initially makes it difficult to "place symbols behind the mountains", so you can create symbols back or symbol trees back to automatically position them behind and give better depth to your drawing.

@Lee Talman you can create as many sheet terrain/land features or even sea as you want. I frequently use this feature to be able to superimpose effects. In this image you can see 3 new sheets: 2 of land effects (the ice is on top of the tundra, and the SEA LAKE to produce the lakes on the map using the "water" of the sea.

You can also calibrate the inner opacity (I usually use between 40 to 80%) so as not to have a "too harsh" effect, sometimes even with low opacity the effects can mix, sometimes causing a desired effect - there is no reference rule for me, I adjust as I go.

Once your new sheets are created, and when you select the new terrain/land features effect... sometimes the program "sends" you to the original sheet, so you need to check and sometimes change to the desired sheet. However, even doing this, sometimes it happens to me that the program insists and places "base" terrain/land features on the sheet.

So what you need to do is go to the "change features" button, select the effect and click ok, then you choose which sheet you want to send it to. Normally this selection is easier when "activate sheet effects" is turned off, because the edge is easy to select, when edge fade inner is activated, it is usually difficult for me to select the TERRAin sheet I want.

Cheers
