Description If requested, I would post a color version in my scraps. Just say the word...

Title is from this Emily Dickinson poem:
THE SOUL selects her own society,
Then shuts the door;
On her divine majority
Obtrude no more.

Unmoved, she notes the chariot’s pausing
At her low gate;
Unmoved, an emperor is kneeling
Upon her mat.

I ’ve known her from an ample nation
Choose one;
Then close the valves of her attention
Like stone.

I hear you! I'm an avid Stephen King reader with an over-active imagination and a terrible phobia of the dark. I was up until 4 a.m. last night because I had a dream that someone was pulling me off my bed by my foot (it felt so real!!) and they said, "You're just like Carrie!" I woke up to my own whispered screams "Carrie! Carrie!"
I'm not kidding! Why did I tell you this...because you seem to appreciate it

Since school is out, I've been sleeping way too much is all. . It's cool, though, seeing as how I am a writer.

nice angle. i like the way you have combined it with poetry, it works well.

Is this black and white or do i detect some muted colour in there???

There is a slight pink tint to it! Glad you noticed. The model (with long eyelashes) is me!!!

I like the angle, the concept, the coloring... I just like it.

very nice angle - the focus seems to be on the nose though - I would have put it on the eye or the lips... and speaking of these lips: is that my imagination or are they slightly red in this B&W picture??

MissDawn In reply to Araantonak [2006-05-17 15:21:53 +0000 UTC]

Yes! I am surprised you noticed that! I put a pink/red tint on it and desaturated it almost 100% so it would have a warm granite-like feel to it. I just snapped this, holding the camera with my other hand one day about a month and a half ago. I never really meant to make a deviation of it. I was going to throw delete it when I made itblack and white. So, since it was just a random picture, trying to just snap something cool by chance, I didn't focus on a certain part, nor did I take other photos similar to this. What I got is what I got

Thanks for the comment, though, and noticing the details.
