I understand exactly, Visar, and yes sir! That's the much better idea for a slight burn. (See also attachment - quick and dirty work but it already shows that your idea is great!)
The DoF here works exactly the way you imply. It generates that difference, that tebsion, be it between flesh and soul or in general between physical and mental - which may be the same entity in just difference forms at the end, but which doesn't exclude this tension and "antagonism", I would say. Many would rather anathematize this schism but I see it as one of the most energetic sources for generation of the new - for taking further steps into the thinking. I assume stagnation, stagnation of mind and stagnation of anything at all, in case it wouldn't be there.
Cheers!

Hi Nick and thanks a lot for your comment.
i see well what you mean with having burned a bit of the nail top, but i think it would be better if i burned a bit of the surface behind the nail-top so that the contrast might possibly generate a firm division from one another. (right now i am at work and cannot do that experiment, but i will when i am home).
i wanted to imply to the struggle between flash and soul- and flash being much too tied and unable to escort the soul to its wishes! so, in this respect, i am rather glad for the DoF- which really turned the person in the far back into a ghost like creature, aloft and detached~
cheers to you my friend,
v.

And what a hit it was, Visar! Such a pity that in this case the thumb doesn't even come close to the power of the full size image!
Those hard, well detailed, absolutely strong nails on the foreground are such a direct and savage message! They seem to penetrate so mercilessly! And my impression is that they stand in complete opposition (and thus also relation) to that humanoid on the background, which seems to consist out of pure light (once again).
The subdivisions of the image through the vertical bars seems to generate a relation of three entities, that at the end might also be ine and the same. We have the nails in all their metallicity, the "ghost" at the background, and then, between them, the figure of a sculpture in intermediate detailing, much like an entity that can't really decide. talking of that, I relaly must refer to the great way that your DoF gradually and without any ruptures manages to generate that transition.
Perpahs only a bit too highly exposed. The head of the lower nail seems to disappear over its background. Was that something that just had to be done this way in order to not disturb that gradual "fading" of exactness toward the background? (Consider also the attachment.)
Cheers!

when a human losses his freedom ,he transformed to more than sculpture, he transformed into a moving and breathing one,yet this sculpture could dream of some hope that may come in any shape or form,
I like your subject very much,and the well played shot,
best regards,
Saad.
