Hi.
These are some photos from a shoot we did that was ethereal/angel themed, but couldnt afford to buy Angel wings. This post is a challenge to give the images a fantasy ethereal look.

Out of curiosity do the photos need to stay in the same background, or may give this a full photomanipulation and remove the model from the background and make a new image?

Just because I'm such a self-critiquing bastard - here are the things I would have changed if I spent more time on it:

- correct the wings so that they anatomically attach to the shoulder blades more realistically - the way it is now has the wrong side is raised.
- pick a better wing to composite in that more closely resembles the light source.
- paint in realistic light/shadows resulting from the angel glow/God rays
- make the halo more visible by darkening the bg behind it

The MM numbers you listed for me to credit came up as invalid.
