Natural light in the dappled shade.   

This is one of my favorite ways to shoot beauty.  I love the highlights and the shadows. 

This kind of light, always makes the models skin look wonderful.

Neptune in Pisces

   photos - Zorian  

  On February 4, 2012, the planet Neptune moved into the zodiac sign of Pisces.  

This configuration will last until 2025.  This is a very rare occurrence.   

It only happens every 150-160  years. 

I believe that this period will be one of the most creative, artistic, and inspirational periods 

in the next 150 years.   This period will be a rediscovery of the classical arts, 

combined with contemporary thinking.

I choose to call it the,  New Renaissance.  

The  Renaissance, 1400-1650, was triggered by the invention of the printing press. 

Printed books made the transfer of knowledge easy.

In this,  New Renaissance, with the advent of the net and the right astrological  configuration, 

Neptune in Pisces, I believe that there will be an explosion of creativity.  

For the fist time in history, all peoples from all over the planet, 

will be able to share thoughts and ideas, creating an artistic collective consciousness,  

the world has never known. 

In commemoration of this moment, Aria, found this beautiful, 

fine solid silver Neptune Pisces, cuff, bracelet, as a present to me. 

I photographed the bracelet in a salt water aquarium that belonged to a friend.  
Lighting from the fish tank and natural window light combined 

to create this beautiful effect.   

The most important element in the photos, was patience.

My Little Pony

   Beautiful flower crown, antique carousel horse, gothic cross, vintage victorian dress, 

what else is there.   

Evander Preston Jewelry, graciously loaned us this antique horse for the shoot. 

Because of the weight of the horse,   we had to put it on a dolly and 

wheel it down the middle of the street to the location, 2 blocks away.   

Then 4 people lifted it on top of an old wooden picnic table and we bolted it down 

to keep the horse and Aria, safe.

Aria, loved this shoot.  She felt like a princess.
