Fallen

I would really love to hear thoughts on this because I’m not sure how I feel about it. It was interesting creating it because I didn’t originally plan it to come out like it did (like most Everything I do).
Feedback is welcome…

    you sound like me I rarely end with what i intended. I love this! think it is AMAZING!

  • brandiejenkins replied

    Thanks so much Raven, I love uncertain results :)

    to be honnest its a nice pic but in my opinion i would of left it all black and white

  • brandiejenkins replied

    Thanks for your honesty, I should have posted the b&w and full color version for comparison, it’s a stark difference, actually pretty hard to tell the wings are on fire with the black and white.

    I think this is stunning and the flaming wings is what caught my attention!!! I love it and the title really suits the pic!

  • brandiejenkins replied

    Thank you Deidra!

    Really good work. Great composition and just great image in general.

    Thanks Matt :)

    I love the Flaming wings, and I appreciate the “Feather Flames” falling from the wing, nice detail. The composition has a real sense of dark hope somehow.

  • brandiejenkins replied

    Thank you joe, especially for your attention to detail, I wasn’t sure at first if it was noticeable. :)

    Brilliant creation … the cross, the birds, the fire, the story it tells, the title. If it was mine I’d be ecstatic

  • brandiejenkins replied

    Aww, thanks so much Bob, appreciate the comment :D

    Oooh, this is fantastic!!

    Thank you Laurie :)

    Jason D. Lader...

    I am extremely intrigued with this image. I think it is composed really well but I would like to say I like the Fire but with the rest of the image in Black and White the fire really takes away from your intent. I would assume that the “Thunder” in this image is not the fire, rather an idea of regretful failure or mistaken step, I think that the Fire being in colour is too abrupt. But really this is an awesome image full of much to consider in the way of sorrow and regret regardless of whether you change it I think it is a wonderful creation of inspired imagery

  • brandiejenkins replied

    I really appreciate you giving a thorough analysis of this image, that’s exactly what I was hoping for. I was hoping someone would pick up on my intent (which was interpreted in so many ways), I like that you used the phrase ‘regretful failure’ because that really does give some insight to where I was heading. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment :D

  • Michael Coots

    Michael Coots

    Fantastic image…..I love the fact of the fire being in color myself, it adds intrigue to the image, not sure it would look the same in b&w.

  • brandiejenkins replied

    Haha Michael, there seems to be a lot of debate on just that, you’re right though, it doesn’t look the same in b&w, thanks :)

  • Josie Jackson

    Josie Jackson

    Oh wow, you did a fantastic job, I love it, but I agree with 1chick1 I think I’d like to see it all in b&w, that’s just my opinion…...it’s fabulous, I love it.

  • brandiejenkins replied

    Thank you Josie, I’ll try and post the full bw version for comparison.

  • Shoaib .

    I can feel the pain of this character fallen from grace into complete absence from goodness. I love what you have done!

  • RockyWalley

    RockyWalley

    I love this because it has a lot of symbolism in it…This is a masterpiece!!! Congrats on your feature…By the way I used one of your backround textures…I hope you don’t mind that it’s not as good as your work but it is my first one…tell me what you think…

  • brandiejenkins replied

    Thanks for your comment Rocky and also for crediting my texture! You’ve done a beautiful job with your photo, it’s so dramatic and expressive, amazing work for being your first textured image, keep it up! I especially love the expression in it’s eyes, somewhat sorrowful but at the same time there’s hope in there.

  • soxipherz

  • brandiejenkins replied

    I do not know if you know who Mana is, they are a Spanish rock band, and in one of their songs they sing of an angel with tattered wings; this reminds me of it.
    It is not entirely a new idea, but I think it is a rather original approach. A for
    H!FFL0…

  • brandiejenkins replied

    Thank you, I haven’t heard of the band but the song sounds intriguing, will definitely look into it :)

  • Dana Borbely

    Thank you Anna, evocative is an interesting description, appreciate it :)

  • jfsrulz

    I for one am glad you left one wing in color and burning because it indicates a process. The next wing that is going to burn is the next one. Every time I fall from grace I feel like that, but a male version of course.

  • brandiejenkins replied

    I get that and thanks for your feedback, its fascinating :D

  • Kim Calvert

    This is amazing work Brandie, I love it..and congrats on a well deserved feature!
