The Face Of The Turning Angel

    She has a very kind, angelic face. I was most enthralled. She was back-lit but I was able to get enough exposure balance in post-editing to show her features off.

      Anyone know a good reason why an Angel should not be able to turn at will?
      She is the very essence of strength and serenity.

      Nope, you are correct on that---God and his Angels can do anything they wish. "The very essence of strength and serenity"---I like that!
      Thanks!

      i think this angel is kinda sad. Great capture b&w is perfect on statues.

      Beautifully focused.

      She looks pensive and thoughtful, to me. She is very "calm, cool and collected" too. I think she is very beautiful.

      A great detail of this figure. A wonderful example of this kind of work, and you did some great processing too. Grand job.
