... around a Hawthorn Tree - doubly magic!
The Hawthorn has many medical properties, among them being antispasmodic, cardio vascular, sedative and a vasodilator.
Young leaves and flower buds can be added to salads. Teas are made from the berries and flowers. Also strong liquor is made from the buds. Berries can be made into a jelly.
The wood has been used for making handles and engravers blocks. Also the wood from the roots was used to make boxes and combs.
It is the tree of True partnership, love and commitment. In ancient Greece the bride and groom would wear hawthorn flowers on their heads and the wedding party would carry burning branches of Hawthorn.
It is said if you dance round a faery ring nine times then you will see the faeries, but if you do this on their sacred days, such as Beltane (May 1), Coamhain (Midsummer), or Samhain (Halloween), then the faeries will be very offended and will take you to Elf Land.
If you stand in a faery ring under a full moon and make a wish, then it is supposed to come true.
Faery rings are also called hags rings because witches were thought to dance in them.

A shoot in a secret forest where faeries do live and play......
thanks to Andrew who took amazing images, and Louise for the stunning make up.
Yes I know.. I should stop creating characters. :P I don't know why, but every time I listen to Buck Tick I pay a visit to the CC. >.<
A path through an atmospheric little wooded area in rural County Tyrone on a misty Autumn morning.
The Aerochrome Infra Red effect that was applied has given the landscape an otherworldly atmosphere where one could believe the faerie folk dwell.
Yep we're all hedgehog faeries here! ♀️💞

One of the problems I have with the lily garden behind the garage is all the faerie people that the flowers attract. The silly faerie people flitter and dart around the flowers and sing and dance, as is their way. But there are always a few sad tragedies every year, as the fairy people are want to drink too deeply from the lily’s nectar; they become inebriated, and, in their zest, each season one or two careen headlong into the garage. They’re a damn mess to clean up, that’s for sure.
one in a series i am working on for a friend after a day of photo taking and a lot of laughs.......... thanks gnomes for letting me post the finished results

Folklore of the Trees
There has always been a strong association in the glens between the hawthorn tree and the fairies. Small, gnarled hawthorns, often of great age, survive on slopes and in the fields where other obstructions to the plough have long since been removed. Stories abound of the misfortunes that have befallen those foolish enough to cut down a ‘skeoch’, as they are known, e.g. someone struck dumb or even a man’s head turned back to front! Twigs of hazel are favoured by water diviners and noted for providing protection against mischievous fairies. Tying a hazel branch to a horse, for example, discourages fairies from taking the animal. Alder, on the other hand is feared for harbouring water spirits and the ash is said to be the first tree that lightening will strike, and should be avoided in a storm.
Trying to get back into portraiture, I did a photo shoot for a friend and had some luck shooting this young lady.

"What was his surprise and his joy when, on looking himself over, he saw that he was no longer a Marionette, but that he had become a real live boy! He looked all about him and instead of the usual walls of straw, he found himself in a beautifully furnished little room, the prettiest he had ever seen. In a twinkling, he jumped down from his bed to look on the chair standing near. There, he found a new suit, a new hat, and a pair of shoes. As soon as he was dressed, he put his hands in his pockets and pulled out a little leather purse on which were written the following words: The Faerie with Azure Hair returns fifty pennies to her dear Pinocchio with many thanks for his kind heart."
- Carlo Collodi, The Adventures of Pinocchio

Meet the newest doll here at Scribble Dolls, and my first doll of 2014!
She was a custom order inspired by Charles' Creature Cabinet's Fidelia Firefly Faerie.
(I'm sure if you follow me here on Flickr, you KNOW my feelings on the lovely Fidelia's!)
She is 11.5 inches tall.
She can not remain sitting up or standing without something to assist her, but she can still be manipulated in many fun ways with a prop.
I, personally, am having lots of fun with her because she's cuddly and floppy like a rag doll. :)
She was made using my newly drawn up "Pixie" pattern (with a slight change to her head...she needed to match the larger heads of the firefly faeries!).
Expect to see more Pixies in the near future! (They'll be very similar to this faerie, except for the smaller head and a slightly different face style.)
January 2014
I think it looks like little faerie feet and legs dancing and the flower is a flowing skirt... which is probably why this one has grown on me so much.
Minolta 50mm + Raynox macro lens.
Very short DOF on purpose, as well as the cold toned white-balance/la très courte PDC est voulue de même que la balance des blancs réglée sur tons froids.
Okeh let me tell the truth last weekend I spent my time in this faerie land, if you want to come and visit find the magic tree that I posted earlier and climb on it to reach this place .. its so simple :-)
P.S: Except the moon rest of the picture was taken by me :-)
