Location City -  El Dorado Park
State -  CALIFORNIA
Country - United States   United States
About This is an enchanting location, full of ponds and creeks and charming foliage. It is the Nature Center at El Dorado Park in Long Beach, California. (BTW, not a composite, save for the faery wings which were adapted from Ronnie Gaubert's butterfly wings -- thank you once again Ronnie). This is the last faery for now, but there are others from this shoot that I'm looking forward to working up.

Nice work!


Louis Mantanna   {K:685} 7/17/2005
PS work is good but the models expression is lacklustre. Lighting and tones are alsso fantastic.

Hi Toni,
Great job again as usual!
Congrats on the awards for the one before this one... To tell the truth I honestly prefer this one. I'm sure it is difficult for you to choose one over the other. For me, this one has a subtle charm that is not quite there in the Faery's Delight. I also think the PS work is superior in this image.

Right out of a story book. Strong composition, wonderfully done Antonia...love the soft focus of the background, really makes this beautiful faery (she's lovely, daughter?) stand out...great work...:):)Linda


Tara Gullett   {K:1678} 7/17/2005
A very beautiful and fun work. : ) Great job. Tara


Judi Liosatos   {K:34047} 7/17/2005
Stunning work...The purple cape really sets it off.

Todd Entrikin   {K:1437} 7/17/2005
nicely done!


Liz Wallis   {K:26076} 7/17/2005
A stunning image like the others, great use of the purple cape, it really adds to it. Congrats on the awards on the other one Toni. :) :) so very well deserved.

my favorite so far! Very beautiful light and colors, everything works very well together.


Ellen Smith   {K:14418} 7/17/2005
Oh Toni these are great this one is my favorite but I love the frame on the other one. Boy they're both so good I think I'm drawn to this one because the color helps "flesh" out the details. I just noticed the other is smaller to accomadate the frame, maybe if they were the same size you wouldn't lose the fine details.
Great stuff Toni.


Antonia BauerleinSehnert   {K:30194} 7/17/2005
Thank you for visiting my fairies and for loving them so much Ellen. The frame on the other does force the image to shrink since we're limited to 800 high at UF. I usually do all of my images in BW, Sepia and color, though I often only share one of the versions. This time I wanted to show off the frame, so posted the BW on that one (the frame doesn't look good with the color version). You asked me about how I save layers in another post. You can only save layers using TIFF or PSD format, never jpg. I used to use TIFF a lot, simply because I always edit in TIFF to begin with (you shouldn't edit in JPG because each time to save there is deterioration during compression). Now I use PSD most of the time and I can't think of why -- but I think it automatically saves to PSD when you use masks. Hope that helps. Antonia


Cheryl Ogle   {K:24494} 7/17/2005
Yes, indeed the color is my favorite. You have a way of creating the perfect tones! Love it and those wings rock!


Ellen Smith   {K:14418} 7/17/2005
I'll have to remember that. I have had some of my composite work develope strange blotches. Not that crazy edge thing but blanks in the layer like I erased it. Ach! I must like stress because PS isn't a walk in the park. lol
Thanks Toni for the heads up.

Alper Tecer   {K:7002} 8/3/2005
Exceptional image. Pastel yellowish colors, child's expression, posture, surrounding, all adds something to the photo. Regards, Alper.

Fadel J   {K:13747} 9/15/2005
Simply amazing Antonia! love your colors a lot! check out a song called "Brave" by "Marillion", whenever I listen to it I see your fairy images.


Antonia BauerleinSehnert   {K:30194} 9/15/2005
Hi Fadel! Thanks for visiting and commenting. I love when you enjoy my images, and that means a lot to me that you think of my work when you hear a song. Hugs. Antonia


CorrieLynn Jacobsen   {K:9882} 9/23/2005
I think i like this one more than the black and white, the color is so saturated,its so gorgeous!
Where do you get all your fairy wings?


Antonia BauerleinSehnert   {K:30194} 9/23/2005
Thanks CorrieLynn! I make them in photoshop. These are adapted from butterfly wings. Ronnie Gaubert's to be exact!


Antonia BauerleinSehnert   {K:30194} 9/23/2005
