An edit on my first image. Two of the images were taken this week and two from the recent past. The image was constructed today 7-30-2013. If it doesn't qualify for the weekly assignment then please pull it.

Klaus, interesting shot! Love white dress and lighting accentuating the subject under the dress.
As far as the blur, was this captured in the shot or done in post?
Thanks and the original color image is a blend of three exposures. one 45 second to blur the water and one to capture the model and another for the clouds. The new image here has 7 exposures times blended together.

Not for me to judge Klaus, but someone did quote the following rule to me on one of my posts: "Montage techniques are allowed but should be functional and kept to a minimum. Your entries for the weekly assignment should highlight your photographic skills, not your software knowledge".
Personally I would have no problem in accepting your very fine image.

Bill,
Thanks and I have read the same. I think there is a big stuck in the box thinking with photography and using software to present an image. Agreed with the weekly assignment it may be not "kosher" to do so, but as photographers we are also artists and software is a tool just like the camera body and lens. They go hand in hand along with the freedom of our minds to break the bonds of the box.
I don't expect there will be any votes for this image anyway and I don't care if it bombs . I do have the personal satisfaction that I took an idea and used all the tools available to me and created this image from creative thinking.

klaus, took one look at the IR feel and the sky and knew it was yours without looking at the artist first. You have style my friend. Rick
