Torn....
This is my grand-daughter Angelica…Same processing as The Free Thinker edited in “Gaïa…The living planet book”
I was amazed by the result,I thought it realy looked like an ancient painting.
A long time ago , they use to capture a moment in paintings.When I did that layer I had the impression to had captured the beautiful face of my Angelica forever.C.C Arshagra wrote a poem for me that realy represent that image,when I read it,I cried like a baby.I was realy touched.
I did another image later with the same processing called The free thinker

He he – you may not be too good with English but you’re pretty darn good with a camera and photoshop! Just beautiful – brings to mind ruinously old paintings by some Italian grand master.
There’s so much talent on this site I never know whether to be inspired or daunted (so I go for a bit of both…).

Hi Gigi This is so exquisite in so many ways. It is angelic, reflective, it could be on a cave wall or cliff face, it also carries the quality of reflection as if it hovers over a pool of water. All of the above, no more that what it is, or just priceless. —C.C. Arshagra
