New image in the galati cathedral photoshop contest

I am new at photoshop, be gentle lol.

Step 1: I cut the castle out of the original picture.

Step 2: I googled clouds until I found a decent set of storm clouds and added it to the background.

Step 3: I adjusted the hue/sat of both the clouds and background until it looked close.

Step 4: I added gargoyles to the castle using google image search as well and (adjusted the perspective did some warping and hue/sat chages.)*

Step 5: I found a bat on google images that I liked, *

Step 6: I found mountains *

Step 7: Added tree *

Step 8: Added bushes *

Step 9: Added moon *

Step 10: Created lightning using a gradient overlay>diffrential clouds>invert>adjusting levels>cut/paste>creating multiple duplicates and using gradient blurs to obtain glow.

Step 11: Blurred the outer lines and adjusted the perspectives to try and obtain and close to realism as possible.

I was unable to relocate the mountain scene i used
