Four legged Erin.


I reckon it appear as though I'm some form of four legged animal, somewhat like the cartoon character Catdog. I decided on not wearing any clothes so that I could easily blend the two halves, but I tried to make it as modest as I could.

Skeleton butterfly.


I thought I looked a little odd in this photo, but I loved the position of the hand and came up with the idea to put bones on my flesh in photoshop. I like the outcome.

Two-faced.


Wanted to do two different faces, one looking down, the other up. But it didn't look as pleasing as this one. The shoulders aren't the same though.

Demon Eyes.


Simple photo. Only took a few shots to get the effect wanted. I love the outcome, even with all the pictures that hang on my wall in the background.

Boo and Baby.


These are my pet rats. The black one in my hands is named Boo and the white lab rat on my head is named Baby. Both are named after Rob Zombie movie characters. Boo is from Rob Zombie's "Halloween" and Baby is from his "House of 1000 Corpses" and "The Devil's Rejects". The Devils Rejects is actually where my username: shooshoosaidthemaiden comes from. Check out my butterfly hairclip. I bought it today, and have fallen head over heals for it.

Cosmos and Compass

Many people use the cosmos in their photos nowadays because there is a piknic edit that allows you to put it as a transparent layer over any photo of your choosing. So I decided to take it a step further and the photo above was the outcome.


I wanted to use my compass ring in a photo, so I came up with the concept of a journey and the idea to put a map over my face and as a background. Unfortunately, there aren't many stock photos of maps, and google images had a poor variety, so the map on my face turned out slightly blurry, having had to use a small image of a map to cover the large image that is my photo. But I rather like the outcome.

Plaits.

I took some more photos whilst my hair was in plaits:



Originally I just took a photo because I had my hair in plaits for the first time in a while and also to get a side view photo of myself. My kitty, whose name is Nyan was intrigued by the flash and the camera cord, so I let her feature in a number of photos, the first photo above being my favourite because of her odd, little facial expression.

The second photo reminded me of innocence and of being 'snatched up' by something nasty (could be any affliction, addiction or even another person) so I decided to add a few other hands to symbolise it. It's opened up an entirely new perspective on photos. Now I've a number of ideas for photos.
Think I need to start doing my hair new ways.
