 I drew this fairy as I couldn't figure out how to show a fairy otherwise without the usual fairy wings/models, so i drew it with glittery ink and placed it in my garden.
Doging, burning, levels, saturation/hue, sharpness and neat image gave me the end result - still a bit unsure about this one as i know it will loose points because the face is behind some strands of plant but oh well.

thanks. Actually I didn't use flash at all. I burnt the edges of the picture to make it seem a bit spooky and ethereal.

I guess noone picked up on that huh ;)

man 12 ones! and this is one of my favourite pictures because its dark and moody hehe never mind.

Great idea Yuki, I think the use of the flash let you down as the fairy lights just did not have a chance to show. Nice try in a difficult challenge.

It was a great idea, but the image is very busy and disorganized.

The fairy drawing looks interesting, but I can't see much of it; the unbalanced lighting from the harsh flash doesn't help the shot.
