Hi Nicki,
You are truely a world traveler ....You've been to Egypt too:)) Wow!!
Oregon is about the only place you have not been but I know you have been close in Utah(?)) Anyway don't judge us..but my Mom has this Sarcophagus in our house....and my Dad's ashes are in it...so it is very Sacred to us as well....
I was not sure I should post this as it is very religuous and also could bother some people..so I might take it down...but it is such a beautiful piece of ART work as well.....
What do you think - ?
Thank You for commenting my dear- You are a constant support and I appreciate it sooo much.
Big Hugggsssss for you from Sunny Oregon as well !!!!!!!!!!
love,
Micihele~

Hi Paul , thank You for commenting on what could be a touchy subject...I know there are spooky movies about mummies but for me it is a beautiful piece of ART work... and I beleive it to be Sacred in a religious manner that makes me wonder really if I should have posted it((?))
I may remove it but until that time and EITHER WAY - I appreciate your comments and value them very much my dear friend !
Many 'Thank You's '
Warm regards,
Michele~

That's a pity that I haven't seen Oregon..but on the other way it is good so I HAVE to come for a visite..LOL!!!
Your picture is so beautiful and I think it is ok to post it!!I don't think so that you have bother somebody!!
It seems to me that this piece is so big??? Or is it only the angle??
I guess for your mother is this piece the most important things at home!Perhaps scary..but beautiful too!
Best wishes to you,Nicki;)

hi michele, interesting picture and it does make u wonder how people could have made this kind of sarcofugus in the ancient times. I can't see how you have taken this shot... is it lying down or is it standing above your head. I do see that you had a flash on your camera, which makes the colors lack a certain mysteriousness. (if that is a word in english :)) I think it would add more to the character if you had uses a tripod and no flash, also the sharpness on both ends is not equal. But that may be a problem of how you faced this mummy. I like the subject though, it is really beautiful. Take care, Marco.

Hi Marco, Thank you for the great critigue...I expected to get one as I was aware of most of these flaws you mentioned...
First I was on the floor looking straight up because this is about 6 ft. tall standing up-right, and next I did use a flash of which I do regret now as well...and I agree the sharpness is NOT equal at both ends but I am greatful You did point it out because no one else has YET :))
Thank YOu for your great critique ....I should've waited to post this image after getting a better shot:((
It's always good to hear from YOU Marco -- I hope you are having a good summer ?
All the Best,
Michele~
