Description "And I knew my vision of the garden of savage beauty had been a true vision. There was meaning in the world, yes, and laws, and inevitability, but they had only to do with the aesthetic and in this Savage Garden, these innocent ones belonged in the vampire's arms. A thousand other things can be said about the world, but only aesthetic principles can be verified, and these things alone remain the same."

Anne Rice

I had trouble photographing the color of the beads, a very deep blood red. They kept coming out black in the picture.

I'm not a cross person, but this is so pretty. I can picture it with a strapless corset... ooooh.

What a great piece..and the title is very fitting. It looks like something one of those Borgia's (Lucrecia?)might have worn.

hee hee... of course I certainly am willing to work with crosses and crucifixes for anyone who wants one - and I've collected a few goth-y ones for the purpose of goth rosaries
I have a bit of a fascination with Vampires myself V^^V

lol. . . I have a bunch of silver crosses I haven't done anything with. . . I've got a few ideas but none that have developed far enough to make something of

They still look black to me. Crummy laptop screen? Anyway, I can picture this as it's meant to be and it looks wonderful.
I do quite like it in black anyway

Yeah, I haven't seen a computer yet where it captures the wine color. It IS a very deep color, so maybe there is no solutions.

I've been watching the problems in your part of the world with all of the flooding. I hope you and yours are all safe and dry.

Some beautiful, large houses were built about a mile from me in what is obviously a flood channel for the local canyons. It hasn't flooded through there in a long time, but it will! In Southern California, another potentially very bad place is on a hill since we have mudslides every year like clockwork. I guess every place has its hazards.

Oh, bless you. Thankyou, we were all fine. I was in Wales, halfway up the side of a hill, when it was all happening and now I'm in Exeter, halfway up the side of a hill. We will build housing estates on floodplains
Mind you, a friend of mine is moving to Gloucester (the worst-hit area) soon. We told him to get a first floor flat.

I got the bead at a kind of yard sale put on by costumers. The others beads were picked up here and there at local stores, and the jewelry district in L.A. It's been in the works for awhile.

If you have a photo editing program you can make em red. This is very pretty....very gothic.

I use Photoshop Elements 3.0. If I increase the red cast, everything gets a bit red. I have some more stuff in this theme that I will be posting, on one of which I tried this technique. But, I'm still working on it.

Thanks.

I don't know what else I could have done. I had it in a light box, with cool, pure white lights. I'm not a photographer. There MUST be something else, but right now, it's beyond me.

Thanks!
