SOOOAAAPPP IN EYE!!!by
mimsydotesComment by posthumous: your high key treatment causes the soapbubbles to actually obliterate her face. So what we have is a highly emotive facial expression, but also a highly emotive existential effect. She seems to be mourning her own disappearance. Because she is vanishing into a field of glowing white, and because her distress is marked by eye and mouth, which are strong, dark shapes, I am reminded of Dylan Thomas:
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
I realize that I have inverted things, and made death white instead of night, but that's an easy enough transition to make and it fits the other inverse: old to young. Perhaps she is raging against birth instead of death! or maybe I have just taken that step too far... anyway, 10
