This is a beautiful picture! I love it!

What a thurough discription. A whole lot better than my 'you got eyes' You did a fantastic job with the manipulation and I really like the blurred feeling. I just wish it were a bit bigger.

thanks

Thanks for the comment Ashley. Yea I noticed myself the same thing, it could be better with the bigger resolution. Gonna put a link to a bigger one to solve that problem ;=

I really like your description, its nice to know how people going about making their art. I love this image, it immediately caught my eye in my messege center. You always have a very unique way with focus points in your subjects. Its very nice.

It looks like a down feather to me. I can see where one might have thoughts about their own past or lifestyle. In my opinion the first thing I thought about was something lost, adrift, but not in a negative way since the white gives it some kind of untarnished appearance, purity perhaps. I love this one lots, especially.

wow, this is my favourite picture you've done so far, and since i love all of your pictures like crazy, this is just, woah.
the background fits perfectly, until i read that you put it in i thought that it was just like that, its great.

don't think, feel

Thanks so much for the comment Kelley and the +fAv. Its just amazing how you manage to find time and write comments with so many fans of yours. To be honest it makes me feel privileged.

I guess the first moment I saw this feather lying on the asphalt; it reminded me of some sad moments in my past. You are right, it’s white and fluffish look would go better with something positive and happy. But I didn’t see it that way probably because of the melancholic mental state I was in at the moment. So I didn’t want change my first impression and the way it made me feel when I saw it for the first time. I guess it’s all about the perspective and how you look at it. People can associate the same picture with different thoughts and feelingsThanks so much for the comment Kelley and the +fAv.

Thanks for the comment and +faV Allison… deeply appreciated. How are you anyways?

Yea, the actual background wasn’t good at all (traffic lights and some cheesy buildings) since I took the picture in a hurry. And I wanted to give it more colour and especially the blue sky. In the last moment I decided to find one of my other pictures from the golf-course here in Stavanger (Sola) and use it for that purpose.
Anyways it was a good practice and I liked the challenge. Actually I managed to fit the background perfectly; it was able to stand there in its full sharpness without showing the retouch.

wonderful colors really beautiful
