Ondine’s choice on Flickr.
Via Flickr:
Ondine was a free spirited water nymph so it was no surprise when she fell in love with a mortal man and went to live with him on the land. she was very happy and took many long baths in the large tub upstairs to feel the comforts of her watery home again. until the moment her mother came to her disguised as a trout to tell her what becomes of all water nymphs should they fall in love and bear a child to a mortal man. I’ll be granted a soul mama she said happily. it’s true her mother said, you’ll gain a soul but you’ll also loose your beauty and grow old from that moment on young girl!
Ondine was deeply frightened and could only cling to herself trying to choose between everlasting beauty and love…
this is also from the Brooke Shaden workshop I attended in June. so much fun creating worlds~ :D
happy tuesday, it’s freaking 74 degrees right now so I’m gonna go be an ondine and lay by the pool. cheers!

pisces in the twelfth house on Flickr.
Via Flickr:
meet the Goddess Pisces. it is her eternal duty to comfort and carry all fish souls across to the other side safely after death. her face is calm, serene because sadly she has done this many times before and also because she knows she must reassure her silver scaled friend if they are to make the crossing smoothly.
:D
this is my first edit from the Brooke Shaden workshop I attended last week. yup, I sure never made anything like this before! :) hell, I’d never used photoshop before so all in all I think I did pretty well even though every time I look at it I see something else I shoud’ve done or whatever.
the workshop was a blast and it was so fun to meet other photogs from around the area. and look, we got to photograph the lovely Olivia too. Brooke is so sweet and super helpful, going over her process and making sure everyone got the shots and the help they needed. I think she’s currently looking for other cities to bring her workshop to so go ask her to come to your town!
