Upon a Midnight Clear Cover

Cover for T.M.'s yearly Christmas short story. It took a bit to figure out what to do with this one, since she originally wanted the panther to be walking beside the woman. It's hard to find panther stock without pay a few hundred for it on some of the other big stock sites. I eventually came across the one we used and had it reflected off the moon. I also had difficulty with getting the background image dark without pixelating bright spots, which is why I ended up using the Photoshop action to get the base color set and then adjust from there.
