Hell is relative - Contribution to the LMAC Contest Round 51

Hello Hivians,

Gosh, I really longed for this contest during the summer break, my beloved weekly creativity kick.
Then it was like * boom * when the announcement of the 51st round of @shaka suddenly appeared in the LMAC community. I could hardly hold back my joy. "Yeeehaaa" is very similar to the german expression I shouted out loud into my screen.
Shaka's beautiful template photo also turned out to be a great source of inspiration.
Of course, I was determined not to waste any time. So I got to work as soon as I read the post.

Normally at this point I would tell some fantastic story about the scene in my collage. But I don't want to anticipate anything. Instead I would rather ask the question "What were the thoughts of this quantumg when he glued his collage together?".
It's hard to believe, but this little patchwork really has a message. :-)
Just a little tip from the artist ... The message is indeed associated with the location (and similar locations) where the original photo by shaka was taken and the title of this post contains some hint.

The whole creation process in one GIF

Unfortunately, we can't upload videos to the Hives and embed them in posts (if this is not the case, please give me a hint). So I uploaded the creation process as a GIF. The GIF shows the essential work in fast motion. A lot of the detailed work could not be completely included, because of the file size. For example, corrections to the lights & shadows, creation of the drop shadows, image corrections, etc... are only partially included.
