Very appropriate for the occasion! Stunning model . . . beautiful piece!
Thomas Dodd replied
Thank you Ruth – and yes – that’s Halley.. she definitely conveys emotion perfectly for the camera!
Kurt Tutschek
one word: excellent!
no, let’s make it two: brilliant!
(well, now that’s 15 words altogether…)
Thomas Dodd replied
Math was never my strong suit (but they say all great art is based on mathmatical formulas though – don’t “they”?)
Here’s 2 words for you my friend:
THANKS
KURT!
butchart
best image representing the difficult concept of a broken heart that i have ever seen….. very inspired and just plain cool…. u rocked it…..........b
Thomas Dodd replied
Thanks Butch for the great compliment!
annacuypers
Thanks so much for your nice comment on ‘my supporting doll ’ Thomas.
This is very appropriate indeed ! Love the contrast with the red.
Thomas Dodd replied
Thanks Anna – I wish there wasn’t an ocean separating us because I would absolutely LOVE to photograph you. I think with our two twisted psychologically-inclined minds we could do an excellent collaboration together!
Crockpot
VERY nice!! I love twisted Valentine’s Day sentiments. Very cool stuff.
Thomas Dodd replied
Thanks CrockPot!
Ginny Schmidt
Love the lighting, shadows, and perspective in this. The frame is a brilliant touch. Now, the dry cleaning bill ….
Thomas Dodd replied
If only life was like Photoshop – just hit “delete layer” and it’s clean… (plus – I might walk around with some gaussian blur on my face to make me look cool)
vonne
Love the Image!
Amanda Hammock
Making even a broken heart look good.
I really am in love with the lighting for this. It is a stimulating image, brilliantly captured emotion.
Thomas Dodd replied
it’s hard to miss with this model – that’s for sure!
Thank you as always Grace!
Jarko
So much emotion and beauty. Brilliant!
Thomas Dodd replied
Thank you Jarko – this model is very good at conveying emotion – all I had to do was press the button and capture it!
EbonyKate
Very beautiful! stunning image
Thomas Dodd replied
thank you Kate!
Robert Mrvecka
thanx man for this one!!!
Thomas Dodd replied
“This is for all the lonely people
thinking that life has passed them by
don’t give up ‘til you drink from the silver cup
and ride that highway in the sky…”
:D
Thanks man!...
Krisso
Bitter and twisted! Are you sure this isn’t really a portrait of me?
Thomas Dodd replied
Somehow I don’t think you’d look as good in that dress Krisso – but thank you anyway!
;P
Scraggy Hag
your models are sublime and the texture of the satin dress really makes it for me.
Thomas Dodd replied
Thank you my dear Hag (hehe)... I have been fortunate indeed to work with the lovely Halley (who is pictured here) She has a great gift for conveying emotion AND she designs costumes too… it’s a win-win!!!
JenniferB
shit… I mean that in a ‘good shit’ way.
Thomas Dodd replied
thank you kindly my foul-mouthed poetess of the sublime truth!
midnightdreamer

Thomas Dodd replied
Thank you Dreamer!
Michael Gatch

Thomas Dodd replied
Thanks Michael – that’s very kind of you to say!
Princessbren2006
stunning work , i’m sure I know you from another site once called yafro
Thomas Dodd replied
Thank you kindly and yes – Yafro is where I got my start doing this image-shifting thing! I know we had some mutual friends there Ahmed and Suz… too bad the site went under… it’s illegitimate child orfay is a haven for the talentless!
Princessbren2006
