Vespertine Flight by sypri. I like Vespertine Flight. I always feel better whenever I look at it. I just got back for Comic-Con in San Diego. Tired. Sore. Cramps in legs. I started looking at Vespertine Flight and the afflictions have all evaporated.
I like the use of the gold in the butterflies and the hues of red in the dress suffused with the soft golden light. The impact is so startling that they feel like virgin colors.
In particular, I spend a lot of time with the bouquet of butterflies in the lady's hands. The eye moves from the bouquet, to the face, and then follows the butterflies on their celestial pilgrimage and then back to the bouquet.
If there were one thing that I might wish for, it would be a shift in the weight of the image. When I look at the center of Vespertine Flight, there is nothing there. The warmth comes from the bouquet of butterflies. The bouquet of butterflies could enjoy more prominence by moving the lady to the right or by cropping the image (please don't drop the image). Umbrella_Sky by blackeri, for example, has the umbrella holder more centrally located.
Conversely, the bouquet of butterflies could be given balance by adding something of interest on the right side of the image. The Dragon's Egg by AdamHunterPeck counterweights the girl and her stolen Dragon's Egg with the head of the distant dragon searching the forest.
In any case, I find Vespertine Flight to be very pleasing. What a nice treat to come home from work and have the Deviant Art Watch turn up this sparkling treasure.

Really nice choice placing the bright yellow butterfies against the shades of red. As soon as it showed up in my watch-list, I had to see it.

Gorgeous. The colors of her dress are very vivid. I love how you colored the folds! The butterflies are a nice touch and add a bit of mystery, wonder, and childishness to the woman.

If you come out with more images like this, feel free to self-indulge much more often.
