I adore this. I love the purple tint you put in the skin tone - it goes so well with the orange. And the red stains works wonderfully; not to mention the little surprises when I moused over them.

And yes, that's the most important h/d moment indeed!

God. It's gorgeous, so visceral and bloody. You made the scene come to life in full colour. This is one of my favourite scenes in the series and you did it complete justice, capturing all tension and conflicting emotion.

I love how it's framed with blood and I love the flash of the boy's eyes. It's made my pulse race.

Really amazing, lovely, just perfect. XXXXX

I love the way you've told this moment; with all the actions frozen in the blood drops. Beautiful and intense.
And the eyes with so much emotions put into them. Wow.

I agree, one of the greatest h/d moments, stunningly put forward.

nicely done, though it might have been good to explain it ineracted, since i almost missed the inset pics because i had no reason to move my mouse over them. v. clever.

Very nice picture. I like the bloody edges.
You couldn't have chosen a better scene. This is where everything changed between Harry and Draco and to me it's what later made H/D canonly possible.

The whole thing was so perfect, I loved how you get a little glimpse of what happens from the overall picture in the blood drops. ♥

Oh, gorgeous! I didn't even know you had to mouse over the blood drops to get a bigger picture. Just - absolutely wonderful.

Nice work, although if you ever repost this, you might want to put an A/N to run your cursor over the image/blood drops. I sat waiting for the flash to kick in and then quite by accident I found out what happened. It's very cool and I'm wondering if other slow people like me are missing it;)

This is very good. I love the vivid colours, the use of the blood drops, Draco's face reflected in the mirror. Very evocative. And it's certainly the most important H/D moment.

Gah - amazingly evocative for such a 'simple' idea. Not that there is anything simple at all in what you have produced. The way you use the 'water colour' and your combinations of colourings show just how much you understand light and shade.

I disagree with Rickey (sorry!), but I'm glad there isn't a hint to hover to discover the 'secret' images. Finding them myself felt like a special treat, like I'd snuck a peek at something secret, and that shared secret really drew me in and made me feel involved in the piece even more than at the level of simple enjoyment. I also loved your purposely subtle use of red and green throughout.

Just brilliantly done.

:) that's fine to disagree. I see what you say about the surprise adding a level of attachment to the piece, but the flip side of that is that it only works if you find it. So if you've looked at this piece, didn't find it, then you've missed some of the artist's thoughts and interpretation of the "moment".

I spent ages trying to figure out where the Flash would be needed. Then I accidentally hovered my mouse above one of the blood splatters and found one of the hidden scenes! I squeed like mad for finding that little treat. Awesome! ... this is great art! I am just so in love with the red frame of blood. Call me morbid but the way you draw the blood is so good. Nice colors, too. Great job overall. :)

GUUUUHHHH!!!! This is totally amazing!!! I love the beautiful and simply neat way you structured the story telling! I loved that we're presented with this beautiful image with the spots of blood and then realizing that there are images within. Each scene was gorgeous in and of itself (I love the angles and the choices of images you decided to go with) and I just really enjoyed this!

*is deeply in awe*

Wonderfully done and once I figured out the secret I loved it even more.

Kudos Team Canon!!

A+++ for coolness. And, for some reason, I adore the negative/white splatters even more than the surprise-filled blood splatters.

(What on earth is that round metal-ish-looking thing at the small of Draco's back??)

this is really wonderful. the more abstract way you showed the blood was great, and i like how it framed the whole image. the droplets almost looked mixed with tear stains at certain points too, which i really liked. the little scenes in the blood droplets (such a cool little trick!) were nice touches.

I love the blood soaked edges that frames and adds to the central image. It's like Colin Creevy was standing behind Harry taking a polaroid of the moment, and we find it left behind in the bathroom after Snape has swept away with Harry and Draco - with only the captured moment and the blood drops that hint at what happened. Great job <3

Wow. This is fantastic! I love the colours, and I love the way you've used technology to make the scene come alive for us. :) Thank you for sharing!

Oh, this is really great. I love the almost-falling tilt of the main image, and the magnificence of the frozen-moments shots around the edge, I can picture it happening in some sort of stop-motion photography thing in a movie, and it's so fantastic, with the fear in Draco's wide eye as the blood splatters up. Really excellent.
