Description Like a whisper
She fades
In and out
of my consciousness.


I don't usually feel this way,but there is something about this piece i like very much. I think i am moving into a period of creating images with haunting dreamlike quality.

ah it's so gorgeous
to me it looks like.. this may sound strange because it's what it is, but an actual photograph.. of a ghostly princess, or somebody of great importance, catching [my] eye as she is paraded by.. as though we have some connection. i really don't know.
but it's an amazing shot

That's exactly what I thought when I saw this photo. It's like something I'd see rush through one of my dreams; being there one moment and not being there the next moment.

Like a ghost following me in my dreams, without saying anything or doing anything, but rushing through my thoughts, she'd become more and more familiar for me, but stay a mystery all the same. Always there, but never quite graspable.

I would love if this was my style. I have a thing for dreams but I can't get the look of them in my mind yet so I could use the style. I like this...

Sweet! Is that just a veil looking so smokey? There's something arcaic, asian or rococo about it... with a touch of cyberspace..

donniebrasco [2004-03-20 17:25:23 +0000 UTC]

she's staring at me, like she can look into my soul, see what i'm thinking, like she knows what I desire.
it has a very ghostly feeling, but you knew that already very old english, dunno how to describe it :s
anywayz I like it,

it speaks to me
it whispers my name
softly
like the wind
she just blows out the letters
sssss t eeeeeeeeee vvvvvvvvvvvvv e
she pulls me closer with every look
everything in her eyes speaks out my name
then
I wake up

Great picture though, very ethereal.

Very dreamlike, I love the specific focus on the eyes and mouth. Did you use photoshop or was it done in camera? Reminds me of the kind of specific focus you can achieve with a view camera. Awsome image.
