Description And the mercy seat is waiting
And I think my head is burning
And in a way I'm yearning
To be done with all this measuring of truth.
An eye for an eye
A tooth for a tooth
And anyway I told the truth
And I'm not afraid to die.

This image is the product of simultaneous circumstances. A nightmare, a vision, my own art manifesto and an idea. I know it can be placed in the horror section, but I seek more than horro with this one.

Full view recommended.

The face is not a photomanipulation. The model is holding a mirror, a second model is kneeling a few feet in front of me. I had to bend down to my left in order to take the shot.

Nice shot!
It's very interesting how she's holding the mirror and everything. At first I thought it was just a photo she was holding up, but the mirror makes it just that much more awesome. =]
Beautiful colors and hues.

Wow great piece! I really love when photographers take the time to set something up like you did with the mirror, instead of just doing a manip later.

cyphersushi [2007-08-16 08:42:09 +0000 UTC]

Excellent. I love the fact that there is a diffrence between the luminocity of the model on the chair and the model in the mirror. And the placement infront of the tree if perfect. A solid surreal image with clear dreamlike qualities.

el-woopo [2007-08-16 08:04:28 +0000 UTC]

very interesting conceptual piece. the mirror trick is very creative (as far as I know) and i only wish the figure were bigger in the composition so we could really see whats going on with the picture. if you hadn't explained it, I would have simply thought the model's face was a little weird.

that aside, beautiful photo and gorgeous colors!

only thing id have to say is maybe a close up or a cropped/larger version so we could see both models and get the true feeling of the picture

This is really well done! I would like to see it a bit larger so that you don't have to squint to see that the model is holding a portrait but otherwise, I love this in it's entirety

encefalocardia In reply to wordsrioting [2007-08-02 19:47:12 +0000 UTC]

its a mirror. There two models in this shot. The one reflected in the mirror is kneeling just at my side.

Thanks
