I think I'm finally happy with it. but if anyone has any fine-tuning sugestions...?? As usual stock.xchng has provided it's bounty. And an extra 'thank you' to Louise for letting me use her photo. Original unedited stock images can be seen HERE. . I have taken some of the suggestions and reworked the image to make this Seraphim

sweet. It looks a little too blurred, full screen. Sharpening it up a bit would make it look just right.

I don't think it is the blurr that makes it a little confusing, but where the blurr is in respect to our perspective. Her hand, which is closest to us, is a quite blurry while her face which is farther away is much sharper. I think that if you made the Hand much sharper, it would give this image much more depth. Other than that, this image has a great concept and you did a nice job.

i was playing around with the focus of the image.. i had the hand in super sharp but i wasn't that happy with having the face blured, so i was trying to focus on the face so i blurred the hand as it would be so close to the camera!.. i might play around with the layers a bit more if i saved them before i started my blur rampage!!! ..erm.. whoops! i might not have!!! :D

I hold it true that thoughts are things; They're endowed with bodies, breath and wings: And that we send them forth to fill the world with good results, or ill. That which we call our secret thought speeds forth to earth's remotest spot, leaving it's blessings or it's woes like tracks behind it as it goes. We build our future, thought by thought for good or for ill, yet know it not. Yet so the universe was wrought . Thought is another name for fate. Choose then thy destiny and wait, for Love brings Love and Hate brings Hate. - Henry Van Dyke.

Archangel Louise, eh? I must have missed that one in bible class. Great manipulation, though. I love the background and the color tones you used. They give an "Illuminated Manuscript" air to the image.
