About the Image(s)
The slightly fed-up expression on the model’s face gave me the idea of someone away from home and, feeling homesick, writing a letter home. I have given her an industrial background to emphasise the gloominess. The background is the Drax power station in Yorkshire. The three elements were blended and the colours tweaked in Affinity Photo 2.

Robin, what an expressive image, it is loaded with emotion. Good choice to have the image at an angle.

Hi Robin. Best creative image of the month IMO. There is a huge jump in emotions from the dark industrial background to the homesick child. I might consider a background showing what she misses instead. Nicely done and arranged composite. Posted: 12/11/2024 18:27:27
Wonderful composite which tells a story without need for further explanation. Posted: 12/11/2024 20:54:45
