What a compelling and mysterious photograph. I am completely fascinated with the juxtaposition of these soft female forms you've been photographing and painting amid the coarse and rough textures of the woods and stiff grass. The two elements, soft and coarse, seem to be opposites but your pictures wed them together in a sensual but uneasy reality; very nice work. I also enjoy the partial glimpse you've given us of the nude in this photo, much like she was trying to avoid the viewer but wanted to be caught.
I love this image Morgaine - so inspiring to dive into your art, thanks for sharing it! Sorry for the deleted comment, there was a mistake with the spelling... :)
Morgaine, your photography is mesmerizing. Avebury and that awesome tree are treasures.. I joined your "blogwagon" and will be checking back often. I thank you for providing the image for Every Photo Tells A Story, from which I wrote a fairly nice piece, I think. I also invite you to visit my site, and navigate to the Windows to the Words Photography. I would be honored and delighted to have you participate.
I am from and live in the North of England. Though based amongst the hills and moors which I find so inspiring, my work also reflects my time spent living in America, I love working with camera or paintbrush.

As I sat by a campfire I heard a wolf howling, close enough to know that I was within its territory, it was one of a pack but if I was to portray a wolf in one of my paintings it would be that one, I know that wolf, by hearing it in the wild I am connected to it. My paintings and photographs of the nude in nature depict this connection, this freedom. When I go to the wild and lonely places and walk naked I feel a spiritual connection to nature. The images are based on reality, my own experiences in my homeland of England and when I lived in the Rocky Mountain Country in America. These experiences have inspired my art, my art is an adventure.
THE PHOTOGRAPHS
As many artists do, I began taking photographs as reference for my paintings. But after a while the photographs also became the art: another way of expressing myself.I now love to work with both, the photographs and the paintings :-) This blog is specificaly for the photographs .
