peacock feather story
I was recently inspired….not to take some pictures of a face and a peacock feather….but to hunt out old prints of such photographs which I had taken….uuummmm….well, yes about 20 years ago (or more)
I was inspired by having run across several pictures of this theme here on rb. Well I just did one of my faving rampages and this is what I found! sorry these aren’t clickable but clicking will take you to my favourites where you will be able to view all the peacock and face images I found in my search…..
now, what do you think? was I ahead of my time????

I would think that you found that collating the Images good fun, right up your street!!
Soxy Fleming! replied
well the search came up with 79 pages of peacock images…that took some time to go through I must say. I’d rather spend the time creating but the result is fascinating and I’m very pleased with how the homepage 8 look together

Yes you were ahead of your time! Haha. Thank you for the feature. When I did my peacock shoot I had no idea other people had done the same thing or were going to. ;-)
I think peacock feathers make for a good prop though and that is why they are commonly used.

yes indeed, exotic and beautiful….somehow associated with death, they are not supposed to be kept in the house…..seems to be a 19th century superstition that they bring bad luck…..but they are beautiful!
