My goodness, this one took a bit to finish. :yum: Ah wells, I hope everyone enjoys it nonetheless! :D It's based off an obscure song from a band that probably almost no one has ever heard of...but I highly recommend checking them out! ^.^ Here are the lyrics:

You're clear to me, despite my blurry vision
Another night of sleeping with the lights low
You are familiar in ways that I'm looking for
A silent figure that looms beyond
You turn to me in slowing motion,
And both of us are curious
You're looking me over (me over)

~You Are Familiar by Secret & Whisper

Hello!

I would like this picture alot more with no text, the mood says it all, and the text is just beating you over the head.
One of the problems with photomanipulation, and in this one particular is that you copy pasted a bunch of things, composed an image but each element of the picture comes from a different place with its own lighting and color variations. The mirror looks too photoshopped because it doesn't share any colors with the rest of the piece. I would take a smudger and go around the edge to blend it slightly into the backgroun, and then but a new layer on top of the whole thing, floodfill a local color and overlay at a low opacity so that the entire picture has a similar color familiarity. I hope this was helpful

13 Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.
14 For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil.

Haha thank you! :) I'm actually fixing it up, so it's not completely finished yet. :P
