Ghost Ship #3

About a month and a half ago I went on a photo shoot with Alder.  I shot 5 rolls of film and there is all of ONE photo I'm actually interested in.

I'm looking for something very specific in my photos...but it's more like this:  "specific, but undefined"...I don't know what, exactly, "it" is.  But I know when I feel it there.  Enter Ghost Ship #3, "Untethered Pearls," from a previous shoot.  I created this using the F-effect, and I love this piece.  I love the length of the form, the way the hand stands out a bit and is backlit by the window.  I like that it requires extra time to see the person on the ground, and I love the inset at the top and the stitches going across the bottom...holding the letters on.  Some are floating...because that is just what letters do, I suppose.

"Untethered Pearls" (because pearls of wisdom come in the form of text.)(right?)
