This is a beautifully done Annie what a fabulous idea for a piece of art.

Love the theme and how you have done Diana like an angel but to most people I expect she was.

No matter how many you took Annie the final results are simply superb that's all I am going to say about it.

Absolutely gorgeous. I love Lady Di and this is a great tribute. The softness of the photo reminds me of her and her beauty. You have done a superb job with all your efforts on this as it shines. Just beautiful.

Very pretty image. I read your notes. Not always easy getting the picture you want but after a lot of messing about, I think you achieved what you set out to. Lovely soft feel to the image. I doubt I would have worked out how you "made" the picture without your notes. Very apt for the contest so Good Luck in that.

This is such a beautiful creation and tribute to Diana. She surely was a beauty in all ways. Your subtle colors have made this a lovely composition. The time you took to make this is well appreciated by the viewers.

Your picture is iconic, and the lighting is very nice. It is a nice and rememberance and so was adding the song words. It is nice and gentle and very sweet DonkeyOatey

    Thank you very much for the lovely review. It was quite a lot of work doing this one.

The only word I can use for this and it is "superb". The composition and initial impact is fantastic and the subtle colouring and lighting match as well. I would send this to as many agencies as I could in the UK for publication. I only wish I could give you six but unfortunately I haven't any left!

Comment from Regina E.H-Ariel


Your result is perfect and even more, it creates the perfect ambiance for the story as she was a very soft and loving person and this is the perfect post for today, Valentine reminding us her life as Princess of the Hearts, soft is perfect as she is not amongst us anymore, but still alive in our hearts another is a heart to heart connection from her to all human beings for sure - your job is handsome again as you do not give up until meeting your criteria and I understand perfectly all the challenges that can create - your candle light is extraordinary as you placed it into a flower - life so somehow life and death merge into eternal life as it is, she is coming out of the light in your picture- white color and this light reflects even in her face and cloth, fabulous work with a 10

    Thank you very much for the lovely review Regina. It was indeed challenging to get the right effect. I don't think I have ever spent so much time taking a photo.
