Eileen during the birthing process...she was on her own at this point, I could do no more to help her.

Today I found this amazing photographer, John Santerineross, and I'm just so inspired right now, his image's are quite..confronting but if you try look passed that and try appreciate it for its artistic intent you'll understand what I mean. I love how he takes his inspiration from his dreams and turns it into visual images, barely any of his photos are manipulated, and the scenes he displays his model's in are so dark and haunting...I think its absolutely wonderful.
Here's the link to his website http://www.attis.nu/attis_main.html





He also make's short film's which I adore.
"A disturbingly beautiful look into the mind of a "cutter". Filmed in the style that has made John Santerineross famous, this short art film captures the essence of one of his new images and brings it to life. A young girl shows the inspiration she finds in her somewhat bizarre ritual and shares with us the beauty in an act that most would consider disquieting. Accompanied by wordless song, John's first film is sure to fascinate viewers with the same haunting aesthetic that has made gazing at his photographic images an unforgettable experience"

The dream is coming true for the second time around! I can't fucking wait to see him again. If only I could see Opeth live now then my life will be complete.

I need some help/opinions :) for my mid year assessment which is on Tuesday, I have to do at least 8 photo's and discuss them etc..I've done all the photo's but there's just one which I'm not sure about, whether its necessary to have in there at all, it kind of looks a bit out of place to me...if you could give me your opinion that would be great ^.^

*freaking out* I really don't think I'm going to handle getting up in front of half of the first year students next Tuesday and show 8 of my photo's, show my visual diary (which they make us treat like an actual "personal" diary) and talk about my work...can I die? Oh and I'm 2nd last for the day, which means I'll be sitting in anxiety for the entire day, wonderful, thank you world :)

Dark is the light, Dark is the light

And everything is ( black. )

So its off to the doctors for me today -_- I thought I might as well get my sickness checked out *just in case* basically because last night I cracked after my father sent me an email with all this information about swine flu and its symptoms, successfully scaring the shit out of me.
Although nothing much would change here at home even if I did have it, mum's pretty much quarantining me herself, disinfecting her hands every 2 seconds, not letting me touch anything and running out of the rooms she is in each time I enter.

Ironically enough, I was the highest bidder this morning for a childrens respiratory mask off ebay, best 55 US cents I ever spent ;)
