I'm going to agree with the comment about the "dreaminess" of so much of your work... a matter of a very smooth texture nd careful control of blur. Very nice! As a general observation, it strikes me that many of the images in this gallery would be better with a little less harshness and a little less saturation... that would preserve the sense of depth and perhaps mystery the windings of a path suggest. Back to your picture, It does a good job of balancing all the elemnts. Eric hatch

Sarah, I really like the tones and selective coloring. The scale is wonderful...very effective to repeat the "S" cuve of the road with the posture. Nice shot. MFC

Sarah! This is really neat - sort of the opposite of what I did in the Eligible gallery. Great colors on (you?). Plus the desaturation of the rest of the scene really emphasizes the character. The background trees are so soft, did you make a layer, lower the opacity on it and apply a subtle gaussian blur? Anyway, really nice! 8D - JaimeZX

Striking. I like the fact that your model
(or is it you ?) is on an S-shaped curve.


Almost like a backwards signature.
