On the first day of this year I posted an image called ‘Candlelight‘. I still adore the image, but there are also others that have been taken on the same day which I really like. Instead of posting all of them for several different Sinful Sundays, I have chosen one more to share with you.

I really adore this image, but I wanted to play with it in Photoshop to see what it looked like with different edits. No filter I used made it better, until I tried the ‘high key filter’ (which seems to be a favorite of mine, along with the ‘old photo’ filter). Below you see the image with the high key filter.

Now I do have a bit of a dilemma. I really like both photos – the original and the edit – but cannot seem to choose a favorite. Can you?

Both are gorgeous but I love the original, there is so much warmth and sensuality to it.
Please keep these coming! I love the deep reds / oranges of the first one – the sensuous glow draws me in.
I adore the first image <3 Candlelight is my very favourite x
Oh, I’m glad to see another shot from this shoot. I like the second one best. Xx
Ohh that is a tough one. I like them both but for very different reasons however there is something about the warm colours and the real darkness of the shadows in the original that I really like

They are both gorgeous but I love the sensuous warmth of the first one.
Well . . . I just LOVE the first image. It just looks so sensual and I love the warmth of the candle and the mystery of the shadows!
Lovely !!!

The second, because I love high (and low) key photograpy.
I thought I loved the first image best but on a second, I mean tenth look, I think I prefer the second. 🙂
I like the warmth and softness of the first image, but the lovely high tones in image two are great too!! Just excellent work on both 🙂

I like the warmth of the first but actually prefer the second, a different take with the warmth stripped away
Wonderful!
I have a slight preference for the warmth of the original.
I kind of like the second, looks more alive.
