    hey i missed this one... i think

    at least i don' remember seeing it...will add a critique when i can eyeball it a bit more...
    "I was not trying to be shocking, or to be a pioneer.
    I wasn't trying to change society, or to be ahead of my time.
    I didn't think of myself as liberated, and I don't believe that I did anything important.
    I was just myself. I didn't know any other way to be, or any other way to live."    .

    I don't ever comment...there's not much to say.

    I don't know how you expect to get critiques for these here since they're so far from still being photos that most of the usual advice doesn't really apply.

    Beautiful, creative work though, I enjoy seeing it.

    the best part

    to this piece is the way you manipulated the "flames and fumes" and how real they look

    the sun is oparticularly striking...

    I'd like to see more texture in the woman's hair and the proportions on the hands not quite so "deformed"

    The colors are rich, and I like the composition and placement of all the elemnets..with those few nitpiks.

    regards as always;)

    Very good! Creative, interesting, and engaging. Also, don't worry about the definition of "photograph" that others would love to impose. This work definately belongs here.
