Description The roses dwarf her for a reason. I am short and was told at one time, not tall enough to be a professional dancer. It made me feel small emotionally, so I wanted the ballerina to come across as being lonely and sad, but beautiful. I redid the original because it needed to feel like she was living in a world  surrounded by rules that were black and white with no bends. Her world is joyful and life is beautiful at the ballet. This is her fantasy.

This is the first totally photomanip I've done in Photoshop 11. It may be my last, whew. This is hard for me, but I try.

P.S. LET ME KNOW if this is showing up as "faved" on your end!  I have faved it, but when I refreshed the page I notice it keeps bouncing back and forth, the fav tab,  from looking lit green to not being lit!  This darned site sometimes!!!

I liked the first version too - know that!   But whatever you did different, it really makes a huge impact.  This... is so dreamy and beautiful; the cutting/blending seems to be much better too. You have really improved!


....hey....didn't somebody say they were done with photomanips?    -   (You done been sucked in, haven't ya?  No escape! Bwaahahahaha !!  )
