Field of passion.

TIP
For a photo like this (high view) all you need is a monopod and a remote control.

1. Screw  your camera on the monopod
2. Rise up the monopod as high as you can
3. Take the photo using the remote control. 

Αlternatively you can use a tripod but I think it's more difficult to handle it. Also if you haven't a remote control you can use Self-timer.

Forest dreamtime
I use two different photos for this image from the same place and the same time. One without the model and one with the model lying on two chairs which were lying on a table. I put the second photo over the first and masked the furnitures. 
Other adjustments was burn and dodge, contrast, colour balance sharpness and selective colours. 
This was my first serious effort for the levitation technique. 

I am not sure if in this photo "cold" or "warm" forest fits better. Plese see the next version of this photo

Sleep, Persephone in earth's embrace

Queen of the shades
 Persephone was the daughter of Zeus and Demeter. While she was playing, Persephone was abducted by Hades who had come for her in a chariot. He quickly and secretly dragged her down to his kingdom, where she stayed unwillingly, refusing to eat. Finally, after Persephone's mother Demeter persuaded Zeus to make Hades return her daughter to her, Persephone relaxed and ate a bit (a few pomegranate seeds). Because of this, Persephone was compelled to spend part of her life there with Hades. During this time, Demeter mourns, and so, Earth experiences winter. When Persephone returns, it becomes spring. This story lies behind the Eleusinian mysteries.

Dance with leaves
I use thipod for this shot. Actually the final result is three blended and masked photos from the same location. I use this technique to get a good combination for the fallen leaves.
