Artist's Comments

ABSINTHE
An intoxicating blend containing wormwood essence, light mints, cardamom, anise, hyssop, and the barest hint of lemon.

Not quite as fond of this last set for Timeless Trends Corsetry. I really need to either stop conducting shoots in my apartment or make more money for backdrops. That carpet has been featured in how many of my works now?

Well, it's a very nice carpet. You look really good in this one, althought I frankly don't get the title.

I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, who, in His infinite love, died for my sins and the sins of the world, and that He is the ONLY way to heaven. If you do too, and aren’t scared to admit it, copy and paste this into your signature.

I was at a loss for the title myself, so all it's referencing is the deep green color and the dizzy perspective on the left picture. If you've a more fitting title, I'm open for suggestions! :aww:

Hmm . . . Well, I do have one, but it's not a whole lot better than Absinthe Distortion. Since the corset suggests the genre of Japanese fashion known as Lolita, and the juxtaposition of your white garb to the green walls contrasts them beautifully, I would suggest something like "Lolita on the Green."

I could probably come up with something better if I though about it some more.

If surrounded by negativity it's very difficult to remain positive.

It's like holding the candle and hoping it doesn't blow out in the cold wind of the longing darkness.

I reallyreallyreallyreally like the shot on the right. :D

A big party that all your friends were invited to. I invited your best friend, the Companion Cube.

Of course, he couldn't come because you murdered him.

I like the title. That, and the contrast between the green and you is very, very good. Both sides are good, but I think I like the right a little better.

Thanks! Yeah, the shot on the right is the pretty one, but the other adds interest (I hope?). :P

Well, if you're wondering about it then I think you need to take a moment and ask, What's the point in having two shots side by side?

Personally, I wonder why people do that. It serves no purpose, and ruins the composition(s) of otherwise great photos.

I like making conglomerates because 1. it keeps my gallery from being flooded with tons of individual pictures from my sets, and 2. the pictures are meant to play off each other.
On their own, the right shot is just a pretty product shot (not particularly interesting), and the left is interesting but lacking that characteristic. Since this set was created with the intent of showing the corsets off for a company but being displayed here as well, I figured to balance the two against each other.

What would you recommend then? I'm always open to critique on things I can fix.
