Normally I don't care for this particular kind of post-processing, but it works really neat here! I love this!

Uber artful!!! So loving this. The scarf and earrings give it an ethnic edge. Good stuff. Love the railings in the background. Not too busy, but enough to add interest.

I might like this better if there was a little more color in it, or if it was just all the black and white. But this is a really cool photo!

Comment by Jutilda:
Your images make me think of poetry. Flowing and intricate with a rise and ebb. You're deep. You rock.

I had not seen death's image laid
In shroud and sheet, on yonder bed.
Before she married, she was blest­
Blest in her youth, blest in her worth;
Her mind was calm, its sunny rest
Shone in her eyes more clear than mirth

Comment by Jutilda:
I see a cat's head. Was that your intent?

I should like to sleep like a cat,
with all the fur of time,
with a tongue rough as flint,
with the dry sex of fire;
and after speaking to no one,
stretch myself over the world,
over roofs and landscapes,
with a passionate desire
to hunt the rats in my dreams.

Pablo Neruda
