This is fabulous. Would you care to comment on why the arms and hands do not appear to be yours? Something to do with the way you shot the images or another reason?
Thanks

This photo is fascinating and there are so many things to look at and all so well done! Love the eyes - seamless blending - a 9 from me not just because it's so good but it kept me looking for so long.

I really like the effect of the light bulb--good choice.

Dunno' if it's wrong, but it's imaginatively different! Nicely done.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/29/2012 04:26:49 AM
Really great image, love all those different bottled emotions. Only slightly distracting thing is the light, but I guess you need that one for the reflections on the jars (?)
  Photographer found comment helpful.

9 from me. Love the idea and... it's very well accomplished, Samantha!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/24/2012 07:32:38 AM
A ribbon winner I think, just not sure which one. You seem to have someone else's lower arms on today. No worries its a fab image.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/23/2012 05:46:13 PM
Terrific idea. I love how even though the ladies in the jars are small you can totally read the emotions. I don't want to know what it took to get the lighting right on all the jars to reflect the bulb. Nice work!

creative and well executed.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/22/2012 10:30:08 PM
Outstanding, your ideas are not only creative, they always points to a deeper background every one should think about... Unfortunatly I cannot give more than a 10 ;-)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/22/2012 08:49:30 PM
I believe that's my favorite. Love the idea with jars and different expressions of the bottled up person/emotions. And yup bottling them up is totally wrong. Not completely sure if I'm right but is that you Samantha_T? :) Anyway, a 10 from me.

You are so talented! It doesn't hurt that you are also spectacularly gorgeous...
