Family bible, my cross necklace to give it (hopefully) some interest, a long exposure and "light painting" with a flashlight. Couldn't get the balance I wanted between brightness in the verse, and brightness without glare on the cross, so the verse is darker than I'd like.
Pretty quick PS adjustments - curves, selective colors, and a pass through Neat Image. The turkey is waiting....
Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Yes, I'm certainly thankful for Jesus. I like the soft color tones to this. The dark drop-out background works well and I love the lighting of the scripture. My only suggestion would be that it appears a little blurred. I'm not sure if it's from over sharp or just focus?? Over-all, a very nice shot.
A marvelous thing for which to be grateful. Perhaps the supreme example! I like how you spotlighed the scripture passage. Perhaps that's enough. I'm not sure you needed to circle it with the chain? Still, a very nice image.
I like the spotlight effect to highlight the text. I would have liked a little more light on the rest of it, though. Still, I give it a 10 for concept and merit!! JD
