Description
Take it. Its yours now.EDIT
So there has been alot of fuss over this photo looking very similar to the cover of the Twilight book. I'd like to take this time out to state that the similarities between the two happen to be completely unintentional & very unfortunate. I did not realize how alike the two were til after I posted it on another site some months ago. So now that you know that I am aware of how similar the two look you can all stop bringing it up please.
The inspiration did not come from Twilight at all, in fact I am not even remotely close to being a fan of stalkerish sparkly vegetarian vampires. I got the idea to do this last year after a friend sent me a link to Gnarls Barkley's video for "Who's Gonna Save My Soul". I had intended to originally do several photographs using hearts but this was the only one I ever got around to doing.
By the way, for all those wondering: Its a pig's heart.

Its an amazing picture! The hands are a bid overexposed but the heart as middlepoint of the scene is greatly lighted. The idea behind is really amazing.
I canΒ΄t understand why Twilight is chosen to be the ultimate comparison to this picture. The scenery is quite similar but the idea behind is completely different.

I was always a bit upset how my arms came out in this. I had gone a little excessive with the blood & had to edit it out causing them to look a little strange. But after looking back on it after a few months I don't think it looks entirely bad.

Perhaps you could make a new picture of the arms in an similar position and blend them in with an alpha map. The picture donΒ΄t nead it, its quite impressive, but it would make a cleaner look.

This is amazing. It really hits home. I've given my heart to my closest friends. This is almost exactly what it felt like to do so.

I was more fascinated by the heart and didn't think about Twilight until I read the comments.
It's simplet yet portrayed a very deep meaning.
Congrats on the DD

This is a truely amazing picture that speaks a thousand words.
Fact: After the heart is removed from the body, it will still continue to beat for severil minutes. The doctors have 16 - 24 hours to get the heart into the new owner...
This picture really speaks to me on how giving some people are. I am truely inspired to be an organ doner <3!!!

Weird, but better than Twilight.

euyuch.
where did you get that?

This picture is so much better than Twilight book cover. And I hate Twilight.

Its not that hard to be better than Twilight.

You got that right. In fact, I bet I could rewrite it and make it SO much better!
π: 0 β©: 2
I have been tempted to rewrite the whole thing...for one, Bella would not lose her sarcasm as soon as she hooks up with Edward and she would either have better self-esteem fitting her cozy life or she'd have had some traumatic event that had happened when she was a child. And she would not describe Edward's beauty every other page! Jacob would not break character and become a total asshole in book three. And as for imprinting on a newborn? Just...no. Urrgghh! It's not that I hate the books, it's just that there's so much wrong with them and the fan base is so disproportionate!

Among other things, if I rewrote it, Bella would be more like Holden Caulfield or Mia Thermopolis of The Princess Diaries. Now THERE was a good series from a high school girl's point-of-view.
π: 0 β©: 1
I wasn't fond of Holden, and I haven't read the Princess Diaries, but I suppose I'd make Bella more like Ponyboy or Elphaba. And Edward would be less stalker-esque and less traditionalist.
π: 0 β©: 1
Who's Elphaba? And what didn't you like about Holden?
And ditto about Mr. Ed.
π: 0 β©: 1
Elphaba is from Wicked: The Life and Times of The Wicked Witch of the West.
I guess Holden just seemed to me...not exactly whiny, and moody isn't quite what I'm looking for. Cynical? That and he didn't really have any qualities that I like in a person. Mind you I haven't read it in six years. My opinion might change now. However, the writing was well-done, as was the characterization even if it was a character I didn't like. And, of course, it lends realism to a character if not everyone likes her/him, which is to commended. It was a good book; I just...didn't get along well with Holden Caulfield.

It wouldn't hurt to read it again, especially since you consider it well-written...
And maybe cynicism's the shot in the arm Bella needs, at least for the first part of Twilight...

"And then Bella got shot in the head and Edward Cullen took on a job as a tooth fairy."
And that's all we need. xD

"Very visually dynamic" XD!
It makes my chest ache just looking at it. I think anyone who's experienced a bad heartbreak (all are bad but I mean severe) can feel that by looking at this. I don't mean that as an insult, lol.
I've recently compared my being ready for a relationship again (healed and not needy)...to putting my heart back on the chopping block. It's risking so much pain, but the only way to really give someone your all.

XD!!! I know! LOL....good ol' James, haha!

Thank you for noticing my original intentions with this & not making a Twilight reference.
π: 0 β©: 1
Thanks...but I did make a reference, lol. I quoted James (bad guy) from the film.
I DID see the meaning in it though, not just that you used Twilight imagery.

"Very visually dynamic" ha! that totally made me laugh!

It made me laugh too XD...it just popped into my head, lol!

Wow! That's just AMAZING!

Are you going to finish that? Because if not I'd love to take a bite out of it. 
π: 0 β©: 1
In the original of this there was actually way too much blood on my hands & I had to attempt to photoshop it out. I wanted it to look like my hands had just come out of my chest but wound up getting a bit carried away with it (As I tend to do)

Well either way my friend, I believe you did an excellent job on this and hope you get many more praises in the future. You definitely deserve it ^_^

Thank you very much.

you are ver welcome ^_^

If it is a parody of Twilight, then it's one of the best ones I've ever seen, and is very cleverly done. Very nice colours, they contrast really well. c:

Unintentionally, but thank you.
