PORTRAITS

Because
I've moved my website
 and am now using BlogSpot instead,
 these images have not been uploaded on here before,
even though they were taken a while back. Due to me temporarily closing my
 business while I study, it has been TWO MONTHS
 now since I last picked up my camera and my withdrawal symptoms
are STRONG!
 My palms are itching,
 my shoulders are twitching
 and my brain is screaming to switch over to the creative side for a while.
 Even typing this, I have conceptual ideas flooding through my head that I'm going to have
to write down and keep for the holidays.
 So in the meantime,
 come rain, hail or gale force winds here in Melbourne,
 I'm going to do some photo shoots next weekend!
 These beautiful people below will just
 have to suffice for
now as a visual
 reminder....
XxX

TEXTURED

Layering
 textures onto an image can
 intensify the atmosphere or story. One of my future
posts will show how to add textures for those that like the look... I definitely
use textures more subtly now than I did on these older images below, but I still like the look
and it's so easy to make your own textures by photographing items around the house.
I used my scratched up metal cookie tray for one of mine. There are
 also plenty of free textures
just check what the owners allow
you to do with
 it first.
 
 

This is a magical beast .... 
that holds the secret of light & shadow in a safe place in her heart & when it has been too long grey,
she starts to dance & laugh & cry & sing & the sunlight fills her up
 & spills in wild abandon
 back into the world
again.

"I'm scared to sleep,
I'm scared to dream,
I'm scared to wake up in case I scream. 
I can't breathe" 
~ Lyrics - Gary Numan

 
 .... wrap my cold heart, my sorrowful soul,   

my wasting being... with all the

 warmth you can give-

 you can share- you can care!

warm again- as you could, all that's

irresistibly comforting to hold....

 ~ Dimitri Marcellana

 
 

 The damaged girl just could not sleep,
because her thoughts were way too deep.
Her mind had gone out for a stroll
and fallen down a rabbit hole.
The End.
