High noon in the woods. Pleasant coolness on a hot, dry day.
To the right, somewhat towards the bottom of the picture, a simple stone crouches on a dais made from unhewn boulders of the same kind, the monument so unassuming as to often escape the attention of the passerby. The front has been cut vertically to create a flat surface, and a brief inscription of the nature of an invocation to St. Hubertus can be read thereon.
In the shade close by, a recently erected birken cross keeps the stone sombre company, with an older, smaller crucifix crumbling down a couple of paces away, its wooden members returning to the earth's womb, whence they came decades ago...

Pedí parar la lluvia, inclinó la cabeza con respeto y unió sus manos en señal de humildad…El gran silencio solo cesó al agitarse la achitó* para conectar con Wö Tüpü**…En breve dejó de llover y sonreimos…F.O.G.
*Brisa.

I asked to stop the rain, he bowed his head with respect and joined his hands in a sign of humility...The great silence only ceased when the achitó* shook to connect with Wö Tüpü**..Shortly the rain stopped and we smiled...F.O.G.
*Breeze.

We are the stars which sing
We sing with our light
We are the birds of fire
We fly over the sky
Our light is a voice
We make a road for the spirit to pass over
For the spirit to pass over
[Algonquian Indian]
We are like the wind
Wrapped in lumious wings
We make a road for the spirit to pass over
For the spirit of pass over
Outò, ba mwen son ou,e
Outò, ba mwen son ou,e
Tanbouyè, o ba mwen son ou
Solèy lève
Outò, give me your sound
Outò, give me your sound
Drummer, give me your sound
The sun rises

"Die Anrufung" (The Invocation)
It's been a while since I've done anything with my Eden series so we're bringing that back with Die Anrufung! There's always similar elements involved with Eden and this lineup has me eager to share!
I must start my list off with Be My Mannequin? Pose Store! This pose is a popular, unisex singles pose called 'Come, Behold Me' which you can DEMO in the main store or find on Marketplace! I did adjust the head angle upwards for this shot.
Pariah is so awesome that I'm using two items by them: 'Marmoreal' (Lighter Body Tint) to make my skin pale and the new 'Celestial' (tinted teal). 'Celestial' comes in many variations and I love that you have the option to tint your own as well!
Nefekalum Tattoos is a go-to for my Eden character designs! This time I used the 'Ahriman Horns & Crown' which are absolutely wicked and were an excellent touch. I love the color variations that come with both!
Those pink aura effects you see flying around me is 'Spirit of Zara' by The Deadboy. and it comes in several color options!
Cerridwen's Cauldron is a MUST HAVE for anything involving my Eden series. And in this case I brought out my favorite of CC's creations: the 'Columnar Basalt (Crystal) Set' in white and blue which you can see in the background! Additionally I'm using their 'Gaia Underbrush' for all the lovely colorful grasses you see along the edge of the clearing.
Speaking of the clearing, it is Studio Skye's 'Enchanted Woods" (Summer) which I edited the colors to make it match the scenery!
Additional items I have on:
Noche: Auryn Sarong (white, loose) and Roman Accessories (silver)
Quills & Curiosities: Bestial Bands
Contraption: Teeth: The Sharps
Suicidal Unborn: Triple Ring Septum
The White Crow: Teras Nipple Piercing (silver)
The hawthorn is seen as a protection against evil spirits in folklore and is associated with fairies and May Day.
A Lamentation Prayer has five parts:
1. Invocation: Deborah
2. Complaint: Stephen
3. Trust: Tommy
4. Prayer for Deliverance: Luther
5. Promise of Praise: Luther
COVID-19 Lamentation
A Lamentation written by Deborah, Stephen, Tommy, and Luther (4.7.2020)
1 O Lord, You see our sadness. And You hear our cries for those we love.
Show us Your love and mercy.
2 Behold, Your people languish in confinement.
We are gripped in fear and loneliness.
We look out the window. How long O’ LORD?
3 We have trusted that You are the good Father,
You know Your sheep by name,
Know the number of their days,
See every tear they’ve shed,
And have not sat idly by,
But shone Your steadfast love.
4 Deliver us, O’ Lord.
Deliver us from this COVID-19 enemy.
Deliver us, O’ Lord from our fear and anxiety.
5 We praise You for keeping us,
We thank You for loving us.

This is a scene from Ipstones Edge (Blackheath NR to be precise). The image is full of possible interpretaitons I guess.
My own title. 'Invocation'. is not meant to suggest any kind of religious connotations (although there would nothing wrong with interpreting it that way) but of magical tales where nature is able to invoke forces of good and evil. Its a sense that you get just being in that special, remote and ancient site but here it's enhanced by a few post processing effects
Few days ago I went in our capital city Ljubljana and while driving there I saw that all the land was frozen. It looked quite surreal.

This image, created with the help of artificial intelligence, arises from the ability to shape visions simply by describing what you desire. A woman wrapped in white veils, suspended on the surface of a deep blue sea, stands against the sun illuminating a sky filled with shades of blue, white, and black. Her hands reach upward, in a gesture of invocation or acceptance of an unseen energy. A visual experience that blends technology and art, exploring new expressive forms to convey emotions and atmospheres with simplicity and power.
Le petit garçon comprend que tout repose à présent sur lui. Il tremble mais il sait qu’il n’a pas le choix. Il se doute qu’il est arrivé malheur à leur mère et décide de jeter un sort à Oswald pour l’expulser hors de la vallée heureuse tout en refermant le portail. Il se concentre, tandis que le sorcier fouille sous les feuillages à sa recherche et parvient à trouver la formule qui d’un coup, projette le sorcier dans les airs et l’envoie assez brutalement hors du territoire de la vallée. Puis il prononce la fermeture du portail, au moment où Oswald se relève et tente de répliquer. Mais les plantes se saisissent de la baguette du sorcier et le frappent, provoquant sa colère.
- Petits misérables, vous croyez que vous pourrez m’échapper, mais vous vous trompez…
Il fouille à nouveau dans son manteau et sort la dernière fiole. Puis une fois débouchée, il la lance de toutes ses forces au centre du portail quasi refermé.
Angelo qui était en train de lancer un sort de protection pour lui et Jakob est touché.
Mais le petit garçon, avant de se figer a eu le temps d’invoquer les forces de la campanule bleue :
« Etoile bleue protectrice, protège-nous, moi et ma famille et donne à Jakob une forme que jamais Oswald ne reconnaîtra. Garde-lui ses pouvoirs, la mémoire de qui il est et permets-lui de survivre dans le vaste monde, jusqu’à ce qu’il puisse nous retrouver. »
Au moment où Angelo a prononcé ces paroles, Jakob se sent grandir, grandir, perdre ses ailes et ressembler de plus en plus à un humain...
