I've been wanting to try some shots like this ever since I first looked at Heather's blog, which has several gorgeous shots using curtains and just the light from a window. I like the result, though I think I'd like to try again on a day when the light is a bit more intense (cloudy, rainy day here in lovely Michigan).
I like the ghostly/science fiction quality of this image, especially in the hand. I imagine this being to be someone on "the other side" or some sort of clone. Or to be more metaphorical, this could represent the veils we all hide behind; how we don't really see each other. As I'm writing this I'm starting to think I'd like to explore this idea further. I love that about art, how it's not linear; how you can start in one place and end up somewhere you didn't expect and also see other paths leading off in completely different directions. It's like being an explorer.
This is beautiful, Meg! I'm glad I could be an inspiration <3
ReplyDeleteHeather's posts did the same number on me, but since I'm not a tree, odds are I'm going to find it difficult to fit into this silly-busy schedule.
ReplyDeleteI love this. Especially your hand. Love too, exactly what you said so well...how you can start in one place and end up somewhere you didn't expect. What I love best, though, is when someone stops by and points out something I never even notice, another layer that was there the whole time but that I needed to share in order to find. That's the icing on my cupcake.
I'm looking forward to your explorations!
I love this, and your thoughts on it. I think the rainy, grey day is perfect, or at least you captured it perfectly, but I'm looking forward to further exploration!
