Very nice piece of work. It is always good to submit things that you don't like, so that you may hear the creative
comments from viewers and people who are interested in sharing their thoughts over what you have done. I find that if I
submit something I am unhappy about, and listening to the feedback I get often helps me improve on the long term things
that I aim for.
It especially helps when you're a writer, since when I read my stuff over and over again it starts to lose its magic,
and I tend to hate it more. That's why writers have editors... perhaps I should get one... ^_^
Anyway, to comment on the image a little more - the effects that have her blending into the mist/fog/sparkle is
extremely well executed, with the blood effects on the bottom half of her skirt almost seeming to belong there, along
with most of the droplets on her arm and face. So, not all is lost with using that technique. However, the one thing
that I must comment on that detracts from this image the most - is your signature on a black background.
That effect is usually done in the IT/Presentation industry to attract a readers/viewers attention to a certain heading,
or title. In this case, it instantly catches my eye every time I look at the image as I tend to think it is the title,
or a caption, to ad to the image. Though it is absolutely fine to want people to know you made the image and for people
not to steal your work after the fact, but the signature is best left as something people go to find somewhere on the
image after they have viewed the work.
All up, though, it is a fine image that will be a pleasure to look at every time my screen saver's image scroll goes
through its merry, random, cycle. Thank-you for sharing... ^_^
