Nice colors, especially the front to back change of bright to dark, from pink to purple to blue. The composition does not really work for me, would like to see more, I feel it is in between abstract and real life representation and am missing something the rest my eye on.

Congrats, great shot. Maybe you could write a "How'd they do that ?" for this shot, also explaining the extra equipment needed to trigger the flash ?

very good, up close and personal, great fit to the challenge. I think some light in the eyes would have made it perfect. 9

LOL, no problem Alisa, I'll take that as a compliment.

I agree with JPR, agreat image, probably would have won a ribbon in the fairy tale challenge.
Have you considered selling this as a stock image ? I made some of my images available on istockphoto.com and am getting approx. 1 dollar per day for those, and they are just standard average shots. I am pretty sure this image would be a best seller and make much more. I suggest you have a look at their most popular images.

This is way underrated, should have ended much, much higher.

Thanks, Shiiizzzam, and all others who left comments. I didn't really expect a ribbon, but am slightly disappointed it is not in top 10. I guess I'll have to do some less strong coloring next time and use a female model. I'll look at it positively, it is still a yellow ribbon if you only take the male models.
