Little lights in my heart

This was taken with a blackbird fly twin lens reflex - then the negative was photographed (really difficult) and then adjusted in photo-shop so that the sprockets were included. It has then been printed and pierced. Then it has been taped to a light and re-photographed creating a very strong burning smell. I know the horizon is uneven......I hope you think it was worth the effort.

Wonderfully creative and so different. Definitely worth the effort and worth a fav too.

[Spanner]

@paulaw Thanks Paula, I am really flattered you like it.

[Channelf]

to be honest, I'm not particularly fond of the result. I think there are too many effects mixed up, and it does not speak to me (obviously it does to others !). I liked your previous little light shots, but I find there's too much here. Hope you take this comment the right way !

[Spanner]

@channelf absolutely, I am not precious about my shots. I appreciate your honest feedback.
