Sunset Love

I have been going through a minimalism stage in my imagery so searching out and finding this simple but touching image was wonderful. Being that birds mate for life, finding these two perched together on the telephone wire seemed poetically romantic.

This poem by Courtney Kuchta completes the feelings I experienced.

One Wish

If I could have just one wish,
I would wish to wake up everyday
to the sound of your breath on my neck,
the warmth of your lips on my cheek,
the touch of your fingers on my skin,
and the feel of your heart beating with mine...
Knowing that I could never find that feeling
with anyone other than you.

After processing the image I combined it with a couple of texture layers from Flypaper Textures. I then further processed it in Nik's Color Efex Pro 4.
