About the Image(s)
ISO100 15mm f8 1/1250 Tripod Flash
I created a series of images where I was moving and firing the flash.
Looks like the shutter was too fast, so the images are dark. I had to increase the exposure so that you could see one of the originals.
However, I wasn’t concerned with it at the time, cause I knew I would be combining the images and to make a blurred composite of them.
And a part of the image would be lightened for where to draw the eye.
Suggestions about this image are welcome

Sure do like the concept here but it is a bit too busy to my taste. Colors are most dramatic ! Maybe add a tiny frame/border? Posted: 11/11/2019 14:40:19

Very Sinister! I don't think that the bottom 2/3 has much to offer, and I would crop all this out, leaving the even more sinister bit, which is very good and original! Posted: 11/12/2019 05:16:56
I agree with Mike - this looks a bit scary like a shot from a horror movie. But it is good in this way. Posted: 11/15/2019 23:20:19
Your imagination running wild! Very mysterious result. A minor irritation for me is the vertical line just left of the left hand face which I would clone out. With Mike regards the bottom half which i think is surplus to requirements. Posted: 11/16/2019 03:33:01

The faces are the key to this image for me, especially the ones more translucent. I played around and came up with a crop that emphasizes the faces and added contrast while lowering the brightness to help reveal more of the face detail. I realize it's not your vision, but those faces really grabbed me and I wanted to see them better. d;¬{D Posted: 11/21/2019 16:51:08
