My concept was Sailor Jerry meets Tim Burton - also incorporate a voodoo element in ref. to Eric's band (The Voodoo Love Gods) so that it would be about him and not just his name. I worked a while with the artist - (my work - my concept - his actual skills merging) I wanted more pink and black going on, but the dude did not dig it and since he was familiar with the Voodoos he argued that pink was just not "them".

I guess he was right - and well - I love what we came up with.

Thought to represent Diana as torchbearer. The statue itself dates from the 1st century AD, but the head is not original and was probably added later.

We had a little visitor to our garden tonight. Sadly it was so dark I couldn't see through the view finder... so it was blind shooting. Came out nicely though :)

A butterfly, I guess. Thousand Oaks, California. Canon 300mm F/4L IS, 1.4 Extender, D.Rebel. With this combination, the depth of field is teeny, even at F/8. Maybe I'll get a 100mm F/2.8 Macro...
