Description


*You think I am down... well maybe I am, but only cos my body needs its time to raise up again... I might seem calm, while obeyin you... I might seem nice, while smiling at you... But I feel rage towards you all, I feel you're stealing my forces full. It's gonna end, cos my mind thinks: no longer more I'll fill your dreams. You gotta do what helps yourself: my choice is freedom, a brand new set of duties and rights you never cared of too taken in makin me do your jobs and plots. I might look down, but I do reason well: after this month, you'll think of me. With regret. * ----------- Picture taken with Zeiss Ikon Netter (an old vertical camera property of my father) lights artificial from three lamps, old film (from there the dusting). Scanned with Epson Stylus CX 3200, normal settings. No postwork. The picture is of that dimension due to a scissor's cut :). Model of course is me. ---------- I took a long series of pictures with me posing and with that old camera for a request Black_ST did to me months ago to pose for him. I gave him 9 shots, and some more I will, but I kept for myself of course the majority of the session (two days.. it was long.) This one was perfect to explain you all the way I feel lately. I am never around due to insane working.. but it's gonna end. As New year starts, I will take 6 months off from my work as University Researcher. Basically cos I don't stand the Milan's crew there around me.Which makes me do things I was never hired for doing. In the 6 months off i'll start a new career as administrative responsible of an important society round me.. and maybe I will finally get my second Master degree (in Psychology) and finish to write my book of tales for children, and searchin an editor for it ;) So don't worry for me in case you were. And read the poem.. it explains much. Hope you enjoy :) PS: Out from this session in grey-blue will be taken the picture I am gonna use for the gift of Xmas to some of you dears :) expect it in parcel at your houses :) Hugs again :)

Good to hear you'r gonna change the pressing work situation. I love your pose here, and that dress looks fabulous. I feel like cutting you out of that pic and place you in the nature together with the other fairies (only in my fantasy) The grainy photo has a special charm. Want to see more of them :-)

"Better an end with frights than a fright without end" (Sorry don't know if the translation works well) Well done my friend to free yourself from this pressing work situation.

Wow! Such a dramatic self-portrait. The grain effect works so well too, and love the light sparkling off your shoes. I'm sure you will benefit from the release of the pressure from a heavy work situation ~ it worked for me.

Idea originale e foto di difficile realizzazione, a giudicare dall'equipaggiamento utilizzato. Complimenti quindi ala "Modella" e alla fotografa...Grande collaborazione...dire grande affiatamento.

"I really HATE to be subject of photographs" ... ahahahahahahahahaaaa, yeah right... I don't think hate is quite the right word is it? ;-) And don't consume yourself with hatred for these people angel, it does nothing to them and everything to you. Just concentrate on leaving it behind and finding something better ;-) I like that pose anyway, it reflects your brooding mood... but don't brood too long HUGS ;-) xxxxx

Best line from your poem, "You gotta Do what helps yourself," You're Beautiful as always. Don't let the bastards get you down.

The poem describe you except your beauty...the attitude in front of the camera is breaking my ego...you are a master in self...cause your are still looking at you trying to find you...Dont hurry...you are young, skill, sensitive, intelligent and SOOO artistic....Love you so much.

I am happy to hear that you are taking steps to insure your happyness dear Meli. Working with people who take advantage of you is enough to make you furious. This is a beautiful picture Meli... and that only makes sense since you are a beautiful woman both inside and out.
