Lovely and ethereal. Is that a queen annes lace? Great combination of techniques.

French Postcard

Wonderful combination. It generates thoughts in my head to use one of my french postcards with writing on them. I collect them and have them from all over the world. I always request they be written in the senders native language. Wow, you have created an idea in me. That is one of your strengths, getting the rest of us thinking as well.

Abduction

Great experiment in lighting. Colors are amazing.
The rain just adds to the whole feel of abduction. Its like you are leaving a trail of where you were, and now you are gone without a trace. Neat.

Looks like you shot it with the black background right from the start. I really like the petal puckers in the upper left area.

Love the high key and just a hint of shape and tone. Nicely created.

Very pretty image. It has a nice matte feel to it with the tinted highlights. Looks like an oil.

Nice tones and processing. I am not sure what you mean by erasing application. Are you having issues deciding what opacity to use?

Wow, looks like a rock troll. Not sure I like the white color, though. What would it look like if it was more of a taupe? It is really haunting, like he is totally trapped in the rock and wishes he could touch and feel again. The more I think about what if he really was inside the stone, the more I like the picture.

Wonderful processing. I really like the use of overexposure in her hair and in the chess pieces. The overlay tones down the overexposure, which adds to the entire impact of the image. I like the streaks used in the overlay and the maroon tones just finish it off nicely.
