Arrow Heart Bokeh

I shot this inside my house (which has very bad lighting), so I used aperture to lighten it up a bit. Tell me what you all think (:

I find nothing really wrong with the initial image. If you prefer the desaturated look, the second is also an alternative. Both are good.

I like them both, too. One silver, the other gold. Nice work

I like both of them. I think the first one is very soft and warm and reminds me of a dream almost. Then I think the second one is sharp and clear and strong look to it. Good job, instead of just fixing the image you created a completely different feel

I like the silver one a lot. The processing looks very nice with the added lighting and desaturation. Keep up the good work kahleekat!

I like both of them too. The silver one has a more princess feel to it? But still, all the same, good work

Both good, although the silver has blown out highlights...

I like em both too. The first one seems to have a vintage or antique feel and the second like someone said a "princessy" look. Was there a mirror behind the heart?
