Description
Archangel (Perry, Brendan)"All love's lost children behind us... forgotten. Youth lies broken upon the wheel of the machine each time we kill their song. Time feeds our memories. We travel through past lives... we are angels - part devil in disguise we sow the seeds of our own demise.
All love's lost children inside us... forgotten. You must open as the flower greets the sun to sing their praise with your song - if you turn a blind eye to the needs of a child's inner vision then you might just find that the love you denied will desert you.
You can break their will, but they never ever will respect you. If you abuse their bodies they will never come to love you.
How long will we sing this song? How long must we carry on ?
Thank you to:

Unfortunately, I agree with MsgtBob. One thing you might want to consider the next time you make a piece is when you want to resize your photos. You should be able to hold the shift button while you drag the sides in or out, to keep your object to it's constraints. That way they look proportionate and not "squished". As for your background. You can go up to filters and go to reduce noise and reduce some of that clarity. Soften it up. (If you're using Photoshop of course) Or you can change the brightness and contrast either with your background or object. To match one with the other. It's not a bad concept. It appears he's some sort of angel. If it were me. I'd have him floating above her looking down.

Thank you! I didn't know that trick - either one of them. I really appreciate your taking the time to add to Bob's tutelage.
LOL! She didn't look quite so squished last night, but that was after a day of working out on the ranch and my brain must have been tired as well!!!

I don't claim to be an expert. I know I myself have a lot to learn. I'm utterly terrible when it comes to placing my shadows. So feel free to take a look at any of my works and make any suggestions you want. I'm open to advice.

LOL! Bob's always on me about lighting (and I'm thankful for each and every time he fusses!!!) - it's always been [one of] my downfalls! Likewise, please feel free to help me and I'll be glad to pop over and do the same

Sounds like a deal. No one really ever gives me a critique. I really wanna know honest opinions.

Never heard of it. TY for sharing!
I actually thought it came from Milton's "Paradise Lost."

Maybe it was based on it - it does sound a bit like Milton, doesn't it?

Nice idea. Unfortunately the girl looks a little squashed, the angel is lit from the wrong direction (lower right), they both are too soft considering the sharp background around them. One personal dislike is his wing (though feathery, is does seem like only one - maybe some shadowing in between them). Sorry.

Never apologize, especially when you are trying to help me get better and look with a more critical eye! Why do you think I keep you around???
