    Very nicely done ... but (the big but) ... for my tastes I think you too much dead space ... would like to see a tighter crop example #1 has nothing going on in the upper left hand corner.

    lovely
    lovey set--especially the second shot. I like the composition and the way the colors all mesh and blend perfectly.

    Great job.

    There's the majority and then there's Khaos.mwink.gif

    I like number 1 the best. I really like the layers and seeing the light source in the corner in what is some really funky but pleasing bokeh. #2 is not working for me because I do find the large amount of white distracting. I do really enjoy #1 though. Very nice.thumb.gif
