Rebirth

EDIT: I had to change the dress and I blurred a bit the leaves.

I wanted to describe a feeling. Do you know when your life goes wrong and then something wonderful happens? You feel better, like if you're reborn, don't you? That's the feeling I want to describe in this picture.

I think there is something wrong in how I arranged the chrysalis and the butterfly wings :/
Anyway I did my best. I Hope you like it
