Guardian Angel by helenhall

Guardian Angel

She was crouched discretely behind a gravestone, as if not to be noticed, or gain attention as she went about her business, but I thought her worthy of note and gratitude.

This was one of those takes which has been through a number of iterations, because I couldn't decide which filter suited her best - whether to leave her fully saturated or stark contrasts in black and white. In the end, I went for the softly softly approach.

The pose and expression is so gentle and soft this was the right way to go with the processing. Beautiful shot!

I like it. Its as if she is fading away, as are the memories of the people she prays over.

A gentle angel deserves a soft approach. Well done.

I like the softly, softly processing. Gives her an air of solemnity.

Wonderful image. I love your soft approach.

I think it suits well, particularly as the angel is quite reverent and devotional in stance and appearance anything harsh would conflict I think.
