Angel wings *
8th Place

Sweden

A mistake really, the photo didn't come out at all how I intended.
Cropping quite hard gave me an interesting part of the picture,
I can't decide if it's any good, but I'll enter it for now.

A very pleasing mistake! - georgef8

Anders, I have a similar (though not a tight crop) in Exhibition, which I very nearly deleted, until I noticed the head *was* sharp. It's a nice shot, and the toning really works for me. Phil

Anders,
I'm very fond of it. I want to look at it over and over again. There's something special about it. It's a keeper. ROberta

If the head was sharper this shot would have been outrageously fantastic and unique, but it is still really cool and unique. I really like it. ~ Lonnit

I love this image!

Hmm...I'll go the other direction, and wonder if, with appropriate filters, this could morph into something very funky - although it wouldn't really be a photograph then. ;-) -Ed Hahn

Ditto. Nice as is, but a sharp head would have made it a great shot.

I have to agree with antidote3, if the head were sharper this would have been perfect! I still think this a good though.

love the effects on the wings but would have preferred the head to be sharper (focused). IMO.

I like the effect. It almost looks painted. Good save! -Byron
