I really like this shot. In the thumbnail version, it looks like a bird. Great job.

it's an amazingly dynamic and exciting effect, but it is let down somewhat by the blurry person doing it. if you get her to wear a black coat, black gloves and maybe a black balaclava with no eye holes, and had the heart on it's own, i think it would prove to be a remarkable piece of symbolic artwork. but the unavoidable movement lessens the overall impact. 7.

So nice to see an original thought here! Nice mirroring of shapes... I do wish there was more shadow on the model's face to make it more mysterious and eliminate the problem of whether or not the face should be in focus. the glare from her earrings is a little distracting.
