At beginning i was a "simple" photograph, no intentions to manipulate etc... all the attention had to be for the hands (painted).
But background needs something: I choose branches alike veins, sufficiently disturbing.
Very uncertain about butterflies, very uncertain: add a mood too romantic.
At the end: maybe will be better without any manipulations, could be more conceptual like my first intention.

Thanks to my boyfriend who told me: "...seems a butterfly!" :giggle:

butterflys aren't always viewed as romantic. While they are often seen as beautiful, it is their final stage of life, and as such is kind of sad. They finally gain the ability to fly, but will not have it long for they will soon die.its kind of like a tragic beauty really. So maybe they are very fitting for this image.

+love the shot, i'd really like to see the unmanipped version. i think it is powerful enough as just the photograph with the painted hands. the branches are ok, though. they add to the space and lend a sense of time and entrapment. i didn't like the butterflies... they aren't necessary, since they are almost overstating the main idea.
beautiful work as always :heart:+
