Description Look to Love
you may dream,
and if it should leave
then give it wings.
But if such a love
is meant to be;
Hope is home,
and the heart is free.

[words from enya's 'Hope has a Place']

My first manip for a while. Hope you guys like it

O.o Been a while, I love this! Beautiful texture that you've used and the faded text creeping in at the bottom adds a wonderful touch. I've always loved the way you manage to pull off that soft glow with the lighting combined with the forest. So peaceful, yet still almost villagesc. Beautiful work as always darlin, caio xoxo

This image looks a lot better in its finished state than when I saw it last, and even then I thought it was great. An interesting title, placement and the black cinemascope style bars all add to a nicely framed image. The colour is great, it's more of that honey drenched warmth that is so familiar to your recent works. I've always found it interesting how you're able to take many of your images and make them feel as though they have been shot in an almost underwater like atmosphere, so thick and rich in varied tones. Yet another great work, a cool subject and layout too. Top stuff.

I really hardly changed anything, other than .. oh yeah, I cropped it a bit. Fankyou!

I made this while talking to you. And look how good it turned out [not blowing my own trumpet or nothing] but you can take half the credit for its creation if you like.

GoldenOuroboros [2006-06-14 08:01:39 +0000 UTC]

ok instantly one question comes to mind or maybe two.. 1. is this old stock? If not, 2. Did she come willingly or did you drag your sister out of the house for the shoot

It's good
I would have prefered not to have placed the blended layer over the girl, giving her a 'cleaner' look

Gregoria In reply to GoldenOuroboros [2006-06-17 07:53:30 +0000 UTC]

1. Yes
2. um well I'll answer that anyway. they both came willingly. anything to dress up and show off and be part of it. durr

3. Thankyou
4. can't please everyone i guess.

GoldenOuroboros In reply to Gregoria [2006-06-17 07:56:30 +0000 UTC]

You have such willing sisters

No you can't please everyone, but as I've stated to many that I watch, it's your artwork, you do what you want and achieve what you need
