Finding buried treasure
We were walking in the woods, talking about how it would be just the place to find a buried body. It made us think of Anathallo's excellent album cover. So, in the moment, we decided to recreate it.
Edit----Wow. I wanted to find out who the photographer of the album art was, and I got more than I bargained for. His name is Tim Lowly, except what I thought was a photo was a painting. Can you believe it? You can find out the story behind the painting by reading this review of the art exhibition. There are a few details that make the story poignant: the model in the painting is the artist's only child, Temma, who has been physically and mentally disabled since birth. She was 14 in the painting. I kind of feel guilty about making a parody of the image now that I know how serious the subject-matter was. And yet, it really wasn't out of mockery that we made this photo, but because the painting was so powerful and memorable that we wanted to recreate it. Commentsiammacgirl

Very dramatic composition. The dull colors also add to the "feel".
