My g/f is trained in Ballet and I decided to make something special and something different.

A Magical Ballerina in a Bag!! -- I'm no genius with photoshop but I'm quite pleased with the results.. Any C&C is most welcome! :)

The bag and the legs are real.. the lighting was created in PS :)

Please note: There were no g/f's harmed in the making of this image ;) ;)

The black slipper gets lost in the background. Trying using same color slippers.

Yeah, I spotted that. The legs were not taken for this idea originally so I made this with what I had and an idea :)

I really like the 2 different coloured shoes. After following the light trails it nicely finishes off detail to the feet, i think!

Thanks mate.. I like the shine in the black shoe :)

Good idea and excellent shot, well done !
I love the black and red slippers too, but a bit more light on the black one would make it more visible.
The only thing that distracts me are those little white spots along the white line.

Thanks, yeah was quite hard to ensure that there was no background in which made it harder for the black slipper to stand out.

The white spots are meant to be like magical sparkles.. Think it needs to be differently setup?

No ! Now that I know what it is, I understand.
At first I thought the spots were there to help you trace the line in photoshop and you had forgotten to erase them after post processing. I just wondered what it was. ;)

Thanks for the comments mate.
