A truly unusal and strange photo. I am not sure if you have tried to say something here Jan, but this sure is INTRIGUING, to say the very least.

best,
Avi


Jan Hoffman   {K:38998} 2/4/2008
Avi -- I am dipping into "Noir" themes and moods and I was trying to say something -- but rather than explain maybe better to say: "It is what it is". An eyeless doll heading West.
:) :)
Keep in mind that clowns and eye-less dolls scare the you-know-what out of me.
Thanks so much for commenting!
--Best to you, Jan


fotogr@vi     {K:49295} 2/5/2008
Oh yes, I am totally in league with you. Noir is a very favourite theme of mine too. :)

cheers !
