Stonehenge Behind the Scenes

For once a behind the scenes that actually features me! Kambriel, my daughter and I took a lovely day trip to the Maryhill Museum and swung by the inexplicable Stonehenge reproduction nearby. As silly as that may seem, once inside it gives the nice effect of a labyrinth.

“Inexplicable Stonehenge” is my favourite phrase of the day. 

What a wonderful day we had… If only all shoots included a fabulous picnic lunch and exhibits ranging from chess sets, Théâtre de la Mode, and Rodin’s rather oddly chosen personification of “Despair”. It was so lovely that Sophia was able to come along, ~and~ was such a ninja at getting these behind the scenes shots!

My work was featured on the Corbis Tumblr!

What is interesting to me is that the week it was featured, I was on an all day photo shoot excursion with this very model (the otherworldly Kambriel) who I had not seen in over 2 years! I think on the 26th of March she may have been boarding a plane to fly out to here. Wacky!

It’s always a thrill to be featured in such promotions because Corbis is contracted with an army of AMAZING commercial photographers, and I am sort of on the fringe of things, over here in my weird world of wonders with my bare minimum camera equipment.

Congratulations to Elisa for being this month’s featured photographer @ Corbis!  

From Elisa: “…I am the featured photographer this time represented by magical Kambriel and Erika’s butt. Sounds about right!”

I told them it was of course my honour to be next to Erica’s fabulous octopus-laden derriere. ;)

Elisa ~ your artistic vision & raw imagination trump elaborate equipment anyday.

Did my TOME interview today (with fascinating questions by ) which ended up touching upon all sorts of things ranging from witchery, stitchery, exiles, textiles, magic, mourning & more! 

Portrait of Amanda Palmer by Kambriel ~ taken recently during a short break from working on filming “The Bed Song” video at Bard College in upstate New York.
