Taken in Georgia / Nikon D80 70mm this is my new most favorite picture / hope you like it as much as I do!!
The mischievous pixie NiaTa knelt beside the forbidden pool; she had abandoned her duty to trick intruders away from the woods, (or, if she was so inclined, to their deaths) and her incorrigible curiosity had led her to the glittering water. / Her wings fluttered with excitement as she reached out to touch her reflection. The other spirits of the woods whispered among themselves at the disturbance. / Ripples formed and NiaTa withdrew her hand, horrified at what she’d done… I’ve been creating some characters recently for painting inspiration, and I thought I’d draw this pixie character! I wanted to achieve a very speedy and painterly effect (which contrary to how it sounds, is pretty tricky and time consuming if you go into all the details) and though some of the trees seem off to me, I’m pretty happy with it. / Enjoy! =) Tools: Photoshop and Wacom / Time Consumed: Lost track. Definitely over ten hours… over about two weeks. / Reference: Gorgeous picture of a transparent butterfly I found on the ‘net (for the wings of course): butterfly reference / Art ©AmberDust 2007

Model and post work – Me Original image by my very good friend Ademac Forbidden Magic There came to me a Man one summer night, / When all the world lay silent in the stars, / And moonlight crossed my room with ghostly bars. / He whispered hints of weird, unhallowed sight; / I followed – then in waves of spectral light / Mounted the shimmery ladders of my soul / Where moon-pale spiders, huge as dragons, stole – / Great forms like moths, with wings of wispy white. Around the world the sighing of the loon / Shook misty lakes beneath the false-dawn’s gleams; / Rose tinted shone the sky-line’s minaret; / I rose in fear, and then with blood and sweat / Beat out the iron fabrics of my dreams, / And shaped of them a web to snare the moon. Robert E. Howard

A Forbidden Love… / Lancelot had one failing, his adultorous love of Queen Guinevere. They tried to keep this love secret, it became known, and eventually brought about the undoing of the Round Table. Here I am imagining Guinevere furtively heading off into the woods to meet Lancelot…checking over her shoulder to make sure she isn’t followed. I didn’t want to have a trite image of the two of them clinging to each other – I am hoping that this image lends some mystery to the story!

The mystical slopes of Forbidden Plateau on Vancouver Island BC, Canada, harbour a secret. Anciently it is said that an entire tribe of people who were pursued by their enemies, disappeared forever into the sacred mists high up on the plateau. A powerful legend that still thrives today. Part proceeds from this photograph help benefit the Prince Rupert Wildlife Rescue Shelter. Thank you for helping the animals.
The Forbidden Fruit As the young girl gazes at the glorious object that hangs from the vine and imagines what wonders would be bestowed upon her, she fails to remember she was warned not to eat the forbidden fruit. But it was so beautiful and the glow that emerged from it was captivating. She did not realize what lay in store, which with one bite of this mystical sphere would bring upon the world, death and destruction of all mankind as we know it. / By Larry Fridel Best viewed large Thank you for viewing my work Image copyright © 2008, Larry Fridel.

Watch the Video here The wounds on your hands never seem to heal / I thought all I needed was to believe Here am i, a lifetime away from you / The blood of christ, or the beat of my heart / My love wears forbidden colours / My life believes Senseless years thunder by / Millions are willing to give their lives for you / Does nothing live on? Learning to cope with feelings aroused in me / My hands in the soil, buried inside of myself / My love wears forbidden colours / My life believes in you once again Ill go walking in circles / While doubting the very ground beneath me / Trying to show unquestioning faith in everything / Here am i, a lifetime away from you / The blood of christ, or a change of heart My love wears forbidden colours / My life believes / My love wears forbidden colours / My life believes in you once again Ryuichi Sakamoto and David Sylvian / From the movie Merry Christmas Mister Lawrence
