Album Layout Help Needed

What do you girls think of this layout. I appreciate the art value of it but at the same time I think its a little eary. I need some feedback.



This is the original picture:

honestly I like the first picture better - it seems so serene and glamourous and the 2nd one seems a bit like a seance - I mean the effect is neat and it's kind of cool the paretns are there but totally depends on what you want from a pic

I like the original better. To me the altered one looks like the parents are ghosts. I feel like it would work if the people added into the photo had passed away, KWIM?

i agree, i like the original better. the altered one definitely looks eerie, kinda like they're looking on you from heaven.

I agree with both of these comments, its a little eerie to me, I like the original better

Thanks, thats kind of how I felt too. I get what they were trying to accomplish but it didn't seem right to me. I want to know if other people thought that too, but to me it seemed like my parents were dead and I think it would creep me out when I look at it in the future.

I don't know what I want to do, leave it whole or pull it out or have them incorporate it into a layout. It's my favorite photo but its also going to be blown up and in my house, so I could just pull it out because I have this one as a full page spread.

I totally agree with the comments... But the pics looks greattt

I agree with the other posters -- the edited shot looks like they're looking up at you from the great beyond. It's a bit uncomfortable to look at.

If there are other photos where the same people are looking at the camera or posing with you, you could always put those to the sides of your couple shot instead. Not as 'artistic' but will be economical space-wise.
