i am dreaming, i'm screaming but making no sound i'm the nighmare from upstairs and i'm coming down from silence to violence in a single step try to leave or retrieve what i can't forget i can see what i'll be when i'm going on i can't heal it, can't feel it if i'm doing wrong it's burning, it's yearning, it's spinning around let it shout, tear it out, save me from this unholy being... if you know my pics, you have realized that i use sometimes lyrics from the band WOLFSHEIM, like this time. the pic is a combination of three. background, head & machine. head is from my girl, machine is from MASERATI (taken at the expo2000 in germany). i also have a pic from a FERRARI-machine, but i prefer MASERATI. :) every single part has a single lightning that was reworked with PICTURE PUBLISHER. all pics are colored in original. converted to b/w on computer. hope you like it. :) lars

Very Nice!!! I can't help but wonder what this would look like if you shot the same basic profile of your girlfriend and she was screaming. However, this is great work as it is Lars :)

I think you need white glowing lasers comming out of her eyes. The lyrics seem to be this anti pregnancy message. Could just be me though. Bsteph

The machine looks like its on a different 3d plane from my angle, as if it, while behind the subject, were actually closer to us than the girl.... just a thought. ry is a mad poster

you are right but thats the way i wanted it. the pic is about the machine that works in our head when we dream, so i focused(?) on it. i used some lighteffects on it. it's my idea of this dreammachine. a bubbled one in curved(?) shapes would also fit, but i dont have a pic of a bubble-look-like machine. if anyone has such a pic do your own dreammachine, i wanna see your ideas about dreaming. maybe in october i will bring a new version from this pic. until there i can not post or work very much on my pics. :) lars

I like this composition and would love to see as Alpha suggested as well as various other profiles (horror, ecstacy, etc) I've been remembering more and more of my dreams lately and beginning to journal them. Maybe some will make it to imagery as well. :)
