Fourth Shoot - Best edits

This is my 4th shoot best edits. All the editing I have done is edit the exposures in Raw. This was to get rid of the blue tint. The pictures in the top row I was unable to remove the blue tint as I dint take the pictures in raw. This is because it was an after thought to do so, where I developed the shoot which tuned out better than the first attempt with the tissue paper.
The top row of pictures I achieved with tissue paper taped to a persons body who moved with the long exposure. I found that a too long of an exposure limited the movement as you didn't get as much of a blur and motion. A lot of my pictures were taken with an exposure of a few seconds at most, which made the colour look blurred and showed movement.
I took the pictures in the bottom row by having my subject hold the piece of tissue paper and letting the find move it. This worked better than the other idea.  This worked due to the way I edited them in 2 layers, one being the background and the other being the tissue paper blur. This enabled me to separate the blur from the background. Which is how I got rid of the blue tint that the filter I had to use due the longish exposure I was wanting to use on such a bright day.
The picture on the far bottom right was done where I dragged the tissue across the frame, this created the effect of motion more than the others, although the colours I used did not suit the surroundings, even though I attempted to do it again I was unsuccessful.
The reason for this is that I didn't know what the pictures would look like until I got back to the computer and started editing. This was due to how the blue tint made the screen too dark to view on the camera monitor.
IMG_9016.jpg is my best edit and how I want to continue with my final piece in the same way. I had the idea to link emotion to the colours and then they relate to the location of the picture.
