Hello my friends!

Well after 12h I finally finished this image. :D
For me is an important image:
- It's based on a music that i really love: I wish I Could Fly (from Roxette, i'm a big fan);
- Have a special meaning for me, because the "fly" is not only in the sky. "Fly" is when you have your freedom, when you have your own life: no fear, no return, only following the life.
- And last but very very important: it's a GIFT to my dear (wonderful, excellent) friend :iconflaviacabralart: . October, 15 is her birthday! :clap: :clap:
Congratulations my dear. Best wishes for you!!!

Music Lyric:

I Wish I Could Fly
Roxette

Halfway through the night
I wake up in a dream
Echoes in my head
Make every whisper turn into a scream

I dreamed I could fly
Out in the blue
Over this town
Following you
Over the trees
Subways and cars
I'd try to find out
Who you really are

In the middle of the night
Cool sweatin' in my bed
Got the windows open wide
Thinkin' about all the things you said

I wish I could fly
Out in the blue
Over this town
Following you
I'd fly over rooftops
The great boulevards
To try to find out
Who you really are
Who you really are

I wish I could fly now
I wish I could fly now
I wish I could fly now

I wish I could fly
Around and around
Over this town
The dirt on the ground
I'd follow your course
Of doors left ajar

To try to find out
Who you really are
Who you really are

Fly, fly, fly
I wish I could fly

I wake up in a dream
(in the middle of the night)
I wish I could fly...
(in the middle of the night)
I wish I could fly

Hi, sorry to answer so late.

I just used 3 adjustments layers (Photoshop): levels, brightness/contrast and hue/saturation in this order, nothing special, I mixed the option until to find the best combination. :D

Oh, sorry my English.
