I gave this a 7 because you transformed your hand into something else, something abstract and mysterious.

ouch. what a poignant image. excellent idea to put the butterfly on a mirror. you seem to be saying something about vanity, self-esteem, self perception, etc.

Veins: the life lines
by Jaded_Housewife

Comment:
I think it is disturbing in a good way. A good image should disturb the viewer, rattle his/her expectations. the striking composition, the way the veins are slightly out-of-focus even though they are the subject of the photo, disorient the viewer just enough to make him/her vulnerable, to open him/her up to a surprising intimacy with the subject. It's a little bit scary, as being alive should be. I, for one, did not worry about the child. Look at that face! Nothing could be more healthy.

so exciting to see a butterfuly in flight! and your composition only emphasizes the dynamism of it. Even the background elements seem to help.

Lonely Ride

Great use of blur. It works hand-in-hand with the composition to create that vertiginous sense of being on the road, and perhaps being lost.

I love that enigmatic, faceless person. Terrific picture.

Perfect light. You processed it just right. The face is so dark that it transcends "mood" and goes right into spirituality.
