Description The lovers sought private corners within their brick and mortar prison in order to find freedom for their restless hearts.

I was inspired by the absolute beauty of the stock photos. The minute I saw the Lovers stock in Sophie's gallery, I knew I'd have to use it. It's just breathtaking. This particular version was posted because I really liked the lighting effect. It added something different to the image. Second version also available.

Full view! You know you want to.

The storyline just involves two people who secretly meet. Basically he's forbidden to her, and she doesn't care. She loves him and will not be stopped.

That's really all I had in mind while creating.

I absolutely LOVE this work. I've never seen anything like this in my entire life!

Could you be so kind to tell me what did you exactly do to the original pic? I've started working with photoshop the past month, and I still have a lot to learn.

Sure. There are tons of tuts on DA about how to crop pictures used in photomanips. I'd suggest you start there. They helped me A TON. Then I used smart blur to help smooth the skin. Messed with the lighting and contrast. Even added some shadow and embedded it to make it look more 3D and less flat. That's only what I did to the couple. LOL

Then I had to match up all the light to the background and the outside. Match that all to the lamps. Give it all a soft glow. It was a lot of work. But it was worth it.

I don't have problems with cropping abd blurring, but I've never added shadows or embedded the pics. Thanks for the advice, anyway. You're a talented artist
