The Awful Truth, Day 4: Could Be Working Harder

Socar's Silly Photo Diary: Part Four of Six

Here it is, just past tea on a Wednesday, and look at me: still in my nightgown, cluttering up the doorframe. Typical. I haven't even had tea. Cooking, apparently, looked too much like work. I'd order in, but I haven't got any money. I never have any money. There aren't enough jobs for door-loitering hoodlums.

It's a lovely evening. The sun's going down over the city, and there's a floral smell abroad. Maybe I'll get dressed and go for a walk. Maybe I'll not get dressed, and go for a walk anyway. Who would know, with my coat over top?

    Wicked stuff. Is that a tatoo on your foot or is that the button that lets you walk up walls?

    I don't even know if you meant to or not, but this is seriously creepy. You've got the talent for the eerie even when you don't mean to. The dark room, your head tilt, the way your toes curl around the frame, and the color tones. You're insane. This natural talent makes you insane!!
    I love your work :-)

    BigFatRat? Naaah, you are LongSkinnyTreeMonkey!!

    Socar, the longer I stare at this the more distorted the limbs become! Your right leg becomes your left arm (positioned perfectly to appear to be jutting from your shoulder socket) and then everything else starts to appear surreal and distorted... FASCINATING!

  16. rgonzale (72 months ago | reply)

    Oh I love this, yes fantastic shadow!

  17. Shari DeAngelo (72 months ago | reply)

    Yessir. You know.

    The shadow of your angular elbow is the piece de resistance.

  20. LightStamp (72 months ago | reply)

    And the long shadow......nice one Rat!

    Are you sure you are a rat, I 'd say you have the powers of spider.

    Or are you a rare spider rat?!!?!??!??!

  22. Rachael Ashe (72 months ago | reply)

    Fantastic Socar!

  23. kagogo (72 months ago | reply)

    Oh my god! I used to do that all the time when I was a kid, but if I tried it today I'd break my hip.

    I love the shadows.

    I think you're possessed. How come your hair isn't haging down? lol I've never seen hair stay horizontal.

    oh this is just brilliant..... Thats it, be prepared for more comments from me to be cropping up in your stream - I'm in awe...

  38. Josho (72 months ago | reply)

    The lighting is wonderful.

    The pose, disturbing.

    :D

    wow, creepy cool, unreal idea!

  40. therese flanagan (72 months ago | reply)

    That is one fine example of toe grip....not at all easy to do.

  41. It'sGreg (72 months ago | reply)

    There are so many things I love about this...and your other work. The composition, obviously, and the wild originality along with the elasticity of your body. But I think it's your use of eldritch color that takes an odd photo and makes it wonderfully weird. Brilliant all around, this.

  42. LegoLeah (72 months ago | reply)

    crazy. perfect.

  43. J. Star (72 months ago | reply)

    Um, could you please explain to me why it is that you are SO AWESOME?

    Heh. This is the greatest photo ever.
