Ophelia
My take on Millais's Ophelia.
This is for my human form study at school. I have chosen the theme of world issues/the power of humans as my topic, and this piece is on water pollution.
This shoot was SO MUCH FUN and so scary!!! I didn't have the courage to actually get in the river, the water was brown, so I went to my local swimming pool and took pictures of myself in the water there infront of EVERYONE. In a dress. The lifeguards were very good about it, they helped take the photos and made sure I didn't drown! :)
Our blog for before and after!
ALSO because it is christmas coming up (and thanksgiving for all you americans!) I would like to offer something nice for y'all so check out the blog to learn more about that :)

Alejandra Maria (55 months ago | reply)
Wow, that's some amazing editing skills you've got! I can't even imagine how you could take pictures in a pool and transfer it to this picture and make it look so realistic. It seems like a really fun photo though, especially getting to do it in front of everyone at the pool. Haha what in the world is your pool doing open in late November though?!
Olga_Greece (55 months ago | reply)
What an excellent idea. That's just f***ing great!!!! (sorry for the language, I get like that when I like something, LOL). A great take on Ophelia (one of my fave classic paintings!), good job on working yourself "into" the water.
The philosophy behind this artwork reminds me of the fairytale series... I likey!!!!
