awaiting high waters

firstly thank you to rachel for clicking the shutter on my camera for me!

 

i didn't think i had gotten a decent shot out of this at first, but when looking through them again i found this and decided i quite liked the awkwardness and stiffness of the pose, and the bird-like position of the arms and fabric.

 

i was going to make this very painterly and add lots of texture, but in the end i think i preferred i the simpler and more refined take on editing it.

 

p.s. i think i am going to try and take a more modern and possibly more conceptual picture soon, as i have always really wanted to, but just never thought that it would work out well. but after seeing brooke shaden's latest incredible masterpiece i have been left utterly inspired and in want of a serious injection of that style!!
