				Cool how you make it look alive, like it's been constantly working under that growth. I like how you added colour to it as if it were more rich soil in the first place. But! it also looks like some kid was picking at plastic-ish fake weeds/dirt and found it   I think you should make the dirt look likes it's deeper, otherwise even when the dirt covers the chip, the capacitors still stick out of the ground. Make it looks like it can be seen through a shallow spot of dirt, like the dirt was swept away in some spots.

				That's an excellent idea.  personally, i'd want to have a more close-up pic of the dirt and grass to make the scale more believeable.
 
 
All you effects on the dirt edges look great.

				That's a top image and a great idea. I like!!!
 
 
I don't know about the glow though. Seems to throw the pic out bit.

				I think you should make the chip darker. Looks great though.
