...Nature paints in mysterious ways....

emil,  it most certainly does,  yes indeed!  the right hand side b/g here is almost to die for,  with emphasis on the word almost.  the blues pinks and purplish are just fantastic.  also really like overall softness associated with your image.  beautiful work!

Soft colors in bg makes this image so mysterious in contrast with light on main subject,very good idea and way you worked it,regards.
