Description
she pulls away her hand,maybe she doesnt really want to be saved,
to drown would be so easy
i havnt dont an emotive protrait in a while, so here we are. im quite happy with it to be honest
i love the focus on my hand. i know it doesnt quite look like 'shes' in water, but its not ment to just be about drowning in water...full view to see it at it's best

Hi! I'm going to be working on a painting soon, and I was wondering if it would be okay if I could use this photo as a reference. If not, that's fine. Just let me know!

Thank you. It surprises me how much people still love this picture, when I took it over three years ago! x

wow, very cool photo. It looks like she's pulling her her to the side, but her right hand is bigger, so in front, and that's what makes it strange!
Belle fille!

How'd you make your hair go all flowy like that?

I'm lying down on a white board, the picture was originally taken the other way around (it's rotated 180 degrees). I just spread it out across the board and picked some of it up with my hand. I had very long hair at the time.

That's interesting...it doesn't look like you're under water or so...i first thought it's a wind and i just wondered how could you catch such a great moment

I'm not underwater, I just tried to make it look like I was. I am lieing on the floor, with my tripod above me, with the camera on self timer.

oh i see! i thought it was underwater- because of that hand-it looks like it's coming up from water...so it's not underwater?

Hello! 
Have a great holiday!

This shot is amazing!
What makes it even more amazing is that it defies the typical makeup of a classic portrait. Most commonly eyes are the most important thing to get in focus... yet somehow here the portrait works amazingly with your hand as the focal point
I have no more words....

I've been around dA for just over 2 years and, I have to say, this is one of my favourite photos. I don't think I've ever re-visited a photo so many times and still found it so inspiring and interesting to look at. I love everything about it, especially the focus.

Wow!
It's... amazing.
And those colours.
Everything... is perfect.

A very pretty photograph. The way your hair flows around your hands looks like she is in water, but also could be seen as emotional drowning by the tearing at her hair. Sorry to state the obvious, but the double meaning angle is what caught my eye

I thought she WAS in the water. Beautifully done!

I really like the flow of the hair, and I like the expression you have on your face. Yes, I do like the focus on the hand also, it brings out the words more.
