 Getting right away from the dark and gloomy. This little fairy sits on a glass ball which has almost been rendered invisible, as has my garden around her.
Several layers of a bokeh image have been added with screen blend mode screen 100% On each layer some parts have been erased.

Wow, this is outstanding. It shows a way of taking a picture of something mundane without making it look too real. Adding a bit of magic to the shot.

I think if you had taken it yet one little step further and played with some paint style filters and effects on the flowers and the canvas I see on the right, it might have brought it even a bit farther forward and blended the soft effect layered on top with the image below.

Great job with the texture effects.

oh my! This is wonderful! I would really love to see what the glass ball looks like. The only nitpick I have is the blown spot on the left draws my eye. The other ones don't bother me much, perhaps because they're smaller. It's still truly wonderful, however, and very well done!

A poet recently remarked that he appreciated the work photographers do to their images. "After all," he said, "poets manipulate words, and photographers manipulate photos to create art."

Looks as if that's what you did here.

This is something I could see on my daughters' wall. I love the lens flares... and the flowers and petals around the fairy. Superbly choreographed image.

like the way you filled the frame in pink. Yet with some contrast to the objects
