Here is my next victim... I mean face-up. Meet Shion. He's a Seolrok Holy ver. I fell in love with this sculpt the first time I saw it but I decided not to order it because I didn't need any more dolls. Only after he got sold out, I started regretting my decision. Soon after Switch started shipping the heads, I opened a WTB thread and soon I had him. I really love his original face-up so I tried painting him as closely as possible. I think he turned out perfect though I'll probably get him 14mm eyes because 16mm looks a bit too large for my taste. He's temporarily on a SD17 body and while it's not a bad match, I want a shorter body for him. Something like the SDGr body but unfortunately Switch NS doesn't match Volks NS as good as it used to so I'm still searching for a proper match.
Shion is named after one of my favorite characters from No.6. Shion is a type of flower (Tatarian Aster) which means 'don't forget me' in flower language. Unfortunately I couldn't find faux asters so I used a hydrangea for his crown instead. ^_^;;

One from my Spring garden.
Brunnera macrophylla (Siberian bugloss, heartleaf) is a species of flowering plant in the family Boraginaceae, native to the Caucasus.
It is a hardy, rhizomatous, herbaceous perennial, that can reach from 12 to 18 inches (30 to 45 cm) in height, and carries basal, simple cordate leaves on slender stems. Sprays of small blue flowers, similar to those seen in the related forget-me-nots, are borne from mid-Spring, and bloom for eight to ten weeks.
The plant is valued as groundcover in shady areas, and has clumps of large heart-shaped leaves of about six inches (15 cm); these usually have white or cream markings, and are present all season. Plants are happy in any shady area that stays relatively moist. It often self-seeds, appearing around the garden in other places. Clumps may be easily divided in early fall.
The Latin specific epithet macrophylla means "larger-leaved".
As you can see the leaves and stems are hairy... and they can be 'sharp'!
Bees LOVE them!
Thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)

Een stille tuin in Leiden
70 years ago today, British troops liberated the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in northern Germany, where around 70,000 people died during the Holocaust.
The scenes that greeted British troops were described by the BBC's Richard Dimbleby, who accompanied them:
“Here, over an acre of ground lay dead and dying people. You could not see which was which. The living lay with their heads against the corpses and around them moved the awful, ghostly procession of emaciated, aimless people, with nothing to do and with no hope of life, unable to move out of your way, unable to look at the terrible sights around them. Babies had been born here, tiny wizened things that could not live. A mother, driven mad, screamed at a British sentry to give her milk for her child, and thrust the tiny mite into his arms, then ran off, crying terribly. He opened the bundle and found the baby had been dead for days. This day at Belsen was the most horrible of my life."
The 15-year-old Anne Frank was among the thousands to die there from typhus, just a few months before the camp was liberated.
40 years ago I too visited the site, whilst working in nearby Hannover. I will never forget!
Apologies for the lack of uploads recently. I'm currently in Finland though so plenty of photos will be uploaded soon!!! This shot was taken the other day on a walk around my boyfriend's hometown, a cute little town in Finland where the majority of people speak Swedish. These Forget-Me-Nots ('förgätmigej' in Swedish) are everywhere and are a favourite of mine :)
يا نعمة النسيان يـا رحمـة الله
لولاك أنا عزاه وش كان سويـت
لو أذكر اللي كـان دقّـه وجلّـه
ماكان ساعه في حياتـي تهنيـت
لولاي أسلّي خاطري جـاه علّـه
وأرتاح لين أرسلت بعض التناهيت
لى ضعت بالنسيان وقتـي يدلـه
وليت يا وقت العنا كيـف عييـت
خل الفكر يرتـاح والقلـب خلّـه
في غيمه النسيان يلقى بها بيـت
أسج بعض الوقت ماهـوب كلّـه
وأعود كني ما عن الحال سجيـت
وأشوف كلش ثابتٍ فـي محلـه
عن واقع الأيام ما كنـي أقفيـت
هذا ضحى شمسي وهـذاك ظلّـه
والليل رعشه ساريات المواقيـت
There is a sweet, a lovely flower,
Tinged deep with faith’s unchanging hue,
Pure as the ether in its hour
Of loveliest and serenest blue.
The streamlet’s gentle side it seeks,
The silent fount, the shaded grot;
And sweetly to the heart it speaks—
Forget-me-not, forget-me-not.
~ Anonymous, c. 1850
Dedicated to all of those affected by the recent deadly tornadoes.

A French knight was walking along a river with his lady. He bent down to pick her a pretty little blue flower, but his heavy armor caused him to lose his balance and he fell into the current. Before sinking forever, he tossed the flower to his lady, shouting “ne m’oubliez pas” (forget me not)! And that was how the forget-me-not got its name.
God had assembled all the flowers in order to give each one a name until there was only one tiny plant that remained. Then God turned as if to leave, causing the little plant to cry out: “Forget me not, O Lord!” “That shall be your name”, he decided.
Your reflection I erased
Like a thousand burned out yesterdays
Believe me when
say goodbye forever
Is for good.
There's some project I'm supposed to be completing every day. . . but I can't seem to remember. Oh! That's right! School Day photos. I think I missed most of last week. Ooops.
WH - ???
As usual, don't mind the messy hair, please. I just shook it out of the pony tail its been tied up in all day.
Lest We Forget
On Remembrance Sunday at the Royal British Legion club in Royston, Hertfordshire.
Artwork by Gnasher Murals.

Created from a focus stack of 45 photos taken with a Schneider 40mm APO lens reverse mounted on bellows. The subject was illuminated by diffused flash.
an image snatched from the hip using a 45mm TSE lens while teaching 'Lo-Fi' photography at Scarborough recently.
The ladies face moved me for some reason.

Raphael "Raffi" Mikelstein as Christopher Robin from "The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh"
Costume is designed by moi.
Props by moi
Behind the scene photography by Jillian Direktor (Seen in her album)
Raffi looks extremely younger than his actual age in the photograph, (and if you know him, he already looks younger than his age). That's just my opinion.
The line "When you never forget." is inspired by the conversation between Christopher Robin and Pooh Bear.
"Promise you'll never forget me."
"Oh I won't Christopher Robin. I promise."

I included all of the classic characters:
Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Rabbit, Kanga, Roo, Eeyore, Owl and Gopher (who's not in the book, so in the movie he repeatedly says "I'm not in the book!")
One of four different blue flowers spotted in Watts Meadow today (the others were bluebells, green alkanet and speedwell).
You can let me down
I'll be fine
I might drown
I might die
I might learn to be alive
In my dreams, I'm alive.
In my dreams, you're alive.
In my dreams.
In my dreams, I let go.
In my dreams, I'm alone.
In my dreams, I'm alone.
In my dreams.
I let go.
I let go of my dreams.
