You’re scared of room 237, ain’t ya?
A longtime and diehard fan of Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining and a bona fide Yosemite junkie, I’ve always viewed the interior of the Ahwahnee Hotel with a mixture of awe and dread. One can be forgiven if—upon first entering the grand hotel—he feels as though he’s just stepped from what John Muir called “the great temple,” into the lobby and great hall of the horrible Overlook Hotel. In fact, if there is a break in the illusion, it is that the common spaces of the Ahwahnee, rather than pregnant with foreboding silence, are overflowing with visitors.
This resemblance is no accident of course. Mr. Kubrick designed his set (especially the Colorado Room and the lobby) to mimic the Ahwahnee, and indeed, I have a hard time seeing the chandeliers, rugs, tables and windows of this hotel without imagining Mr. Torrance clacking away upon his Adler upon one of the long, sturdy tables. Smiling menacingly amidst the tourists and hikers come to catch a few moments rest by the enormous fireplace. All work and no play …
The great coup of The Shining was its replacement of Stephen King’s extensive backstory with a brooding atmosphere and a churning sense of doom. Mr. King allegedly hated it, but the rest of us fell in love with the film. No other film adaptation of Mr. King’s work risen to the mark that Stanley Kubrick set.
Now, Mr. Kubrick was a hell of a still photographer in his own right, and, for my money, it is no coincidence that he possessed a preternatural capability for creating mood. The greatest trick in still photography is to create a sense of place, to render a three-dimensional, flesh and blood world in the rectangular space of an emulsion or a computer screen replete with a taste of the subject’s emotive power. Now, there can be no argument that Mr. Kubrick achieved at least that throughout the film.
For my own part, I am fascinated with the reality that serves as the foundation for imagination and dreams. I’ve spent considerable time photographing The University of Chicago both because it served as the backdrop for a decade my own adventures and because it carries with it a germ of Oxford, one of many templates for Hogwart’s.
I can be forgiven then for long planning to shoot the Ahwahnee interiors. “But,” I always asked myself, “how to capture the silence and desolation that so defined the film?” How could I turn The Ahwahnee into The Overlook?
The answer came with a winter bug that laid me low. Feeling feverish and fortunate enough to be a guest, I sneaked out of bed late one night, closed the door gently behind me, and stepped into the long, carpeted hallways of The Overlook Hotel.
The Tin Mal Mosque is a mosque located in the High Atlas mountains built in 1156 to commemorate the founder of the Almohad dynasty, Mohamed Ibn Tumart. It is one of the two mosques in Morocco open to non-Muslims, the other being the Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca. The prototype for the Tin Mal mosque was the Great Mosque of Taza (near Fès), also built by Abd al-Mu'min.

I remember feeling like touching a history when strolling inside...
yesterday I played a little bit with the mathematical formula of my little creature, pushing it to its "point break" (a point after which black holes start to form and the image gradually disintegrates). This evolution of my creature contains many wonders inside, I'm gonna show you some of them in these days...

Her head is removed from her body, and placed next to her hood and crown. Her body is undressed, and laid down next to her head and dress.
Her hood and crown were removed from her head, revealing her medium length straight jet black hair, combed straight back, with a widow's peak over her forehead. The crown was attached to the hood and her hair by golden metallic thread, which unfortunately I had to cut off. A good bit of her hair was caught inside of her neck, so I had to remove her head to straighten out her hair. The hair inside her neck was left rather frizzy after combing it out. The rubber band around her hair broke during this process, as it was very brittle after being in her hair for 15 years. I replaced it with a small clear rubber band I saved from my deboxing of other dolls.
Undressing the Mattel Great Villains Evil Queen 12'' Limited Edition Doll (1998) to show her articulation, her hair (hidden under her hood), and how her outfit is constructed. The Evil Queen (Grimhilde) is the villainous stepmother of Snow White in Walt Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937).

This is a little sneak peak of tomorrow's update.
This is a unique set, OOAK. All of them will be special and have little trinkets and laces and details.
This one shows the print of a vintage swallow and roses on the apron, a lace doilly and a heart charm.
Underneath the classic prude dress in beige clipped cotton with blue flowers.
The special detail is given by the adorable Glamourfae necklace of a brass butterfly and baby blue crystal. Just perfect!
The set also includes matching bloomers and ivory stockings.
Still finishing the straw hat with flowers :P Later I will upload pictures of the complete ensemble.
Hope you like it, and if you want to learn more about it, follow the link on my profile! ^_~
Flowers - A single flower can be my garden... a single friend, my world. --
Flowers have a simple architectural beauty that radiate optimistic hue and are associated with the sun, warmth, and feelings of friendship and optimism.
Because of their varied and colorful appearance, flowers have long been a favorite subject of visual artists. Some of the most celebrated paintings from well-known painters are of flowers, such as Van Gogh's sunflowers series or Monet's water lilies.
Flowers can also be dried, freeze dried and pressed to create permanent, three-dimensional pieces of flower art.
I love to photograph, smell, see, and be around beautiful flowers. I hope they make your day too!
