Midnight Run
I really pushed the curves on this one and then overlay another of the same image, lighter and low opacity which I then burned in to blend. I added the lens flare because I thought it added a bit of drama and light source.

Thanks so much K! I started to leave this one natural but I just liked the idea of her running like this at night. So glad that you like it. Thank you!

Mouse is so beautiful and I think she does justice to any photo or art work. This is a very powerful image, conjures up a lot of emotions, love the treatment you done on this.

Again, this work has so much drama. It has an interesting composition as she is running from the light and not running toward to the light

OOO you did an amazing job on this. WOW i love the lens flare. It gives it that midnight run feel. I lov eit. How do you get her movement without her becoming blurry??
Sande Elkins in reply to Tiffany Blank’s comment, 7 months ago
Thanks so much Tiffany! This was actually taken in the daylight thus the sharp focus and I darkened it by pushing the curves in ps. It was a cloudy, overcast and dull day so I just thought the original wasn’t very interesting. All it had to offer was Mouse’s movement so I just eliminated what I didn’t like:)
