Description
“In a Wonderland they lie, Dreaming as the days go by, Dreaming as the summers die:Ever drifting down the stream- Lingering in the golden gleam- Life, what is it but a dream?”
― Lewis Carroll, Through the Looking Glass
[My friend Annie modeling as an amaaaazing Alice! Massive props to her for not only modeling this but also being so helpful during this shoot. ♥ She's also sporting some of Tragically Adorned's work--the lovely arm warmers, and the gorgeous floating pocketwatch pictured here. Check out TA if you haven't yet, really (here's a link to TA's page: [link] )!
Also, I have no idea how long I edited this. But. It was a long time. A really long time. Aaaand I've still got more to edit and catching up to do. Phew!]

This is one of my new top favorite Alice pieces I've seen. They way you've suspended everything is absolutely breathtaking. Way to go!

Plan on anymore Alice in Wonderland related material?Would love to see your version of other characters, Alices' reaction to them. It would be interesting.

I'm considering turning this into a series, yes. But who knows when I'd get around to it--I have more projects than I have time for! But I already posed the idea of turning this into a series to the model, and she's willing to, so we'll see!

SmokyPixel, love your photo. your friend makes a beautifull Alice. The composition is really cool, I like how you gave the image a dream-like quality, it definitely has a other wordly feel to it. Like how Alice , tea pot and cups look like they're suspended in mid-air. Image reminds me of the film when I look at it, both share the same kind of mood I think. By the way , that was you in bluish? You make a very aluring Tolkien like character.Your image is fantastic as always.The best version of Alice in Wonderland I've seen.

It might be that I haven't been paying attention, but I haven't seen too many Alice-related photographs around here. Well, at least not as good as this one.
I like how Alice and the tea-set are levitating. I'm getting the idea of Alice having had drank the "DRINK ME" potion at a teatable somewhere, then unconsciously travelling to Wonderland with the teaset, on a cloud of blue smoke.

Actually, in her left hand is a Drink Me potion that I used/made as a prop for an Alice cosplay I did a few months back! And yes, I wanted it to be like she was reading, dozed off, and got carried into Wonderland.

Aw, thank you! For this type of shot, there's a fair amount of planning ahead. The editing is my favorite part!

Nice. Alice must be clumsy, was f*cking wasted, or loves being around cups... Lol.

I *think* it was around three hours of editing? Not sure though! I get so zoned out. I feel like I need to start timing myself.

That would be a good idea. haha
But I meant also during the shoot. (assuming you had to stand in position with each floating object for each separate shot).
