I love your new icon... andnow that I look, I realized that it echoes my recent dreams of people partially morphing into animals. Mine are not nude though, but rather, dressed in 17th century silks and satins.

Wow, your dreams sound as vivid as mine. Lately I've been buying hats from the thirties and forties in my dreams. sridge did the icon. It's great, I think. Couldn't represent me much better!

Just a whim. I have an idea, find a space and use the timer. LOL I want to do some other models though so I have more control. Thanks, ms angel.

How wonderfully poetic
this series reminds me of Dave McKean's dreamy works, and maybe moreso of Charlie Wiedman's "Lunch Money" artwork... Although his stuff had a much more sinister and violent spin.

lovely effect! You already know I am a fan of these images. The ghostly blur, the color pallette...all top notch!

thanks so much. It's just done in our unfinished basement with a slow shutter speed and timer. With a digital, I can afford to do a lot of them in order to get keepers.

You are so great... duplicating who I am better than most people. I think the understanding of being a woman is part of it...an older woman even more.

(big smile) womenlyhood!!! I think I've just invented a word! let me see if there is something like this in english ok, I see, there is womenhood... so I kindof invented a word, right?
anyways - more seriously - I really believe AGE makes a difference here, or EXPERIENCE if you'll like... but the point is - I also belive it's something byond words. many times you "read" me better than others too....
I've just thinking... it's quite an interesting "place" to be, in life, I mean, for both of us... and quite for the first time, I'm so happy to be in this place! (smile) thank you for this insight!

Sometimes it feels very dizzy.... but you just 'spot' as a dancer does so that you don't get dizzy in the turn.

It seems that the world keeps getting dizzier, but I am able to step back and watch it now with a little more grace.

Beautiful earthy comnposition. The red tinged shoulders and light chest push your attention up to her face.
