Firstly, I must apologise for my absence recently. Aside from work being manic and being here, there and everywhere, we had a death in the family and as you know, sometimes something just has to give.
However, I did want to say that I’m back on the bloggin’ wagon, ready to catch up on all the blog loveliness I’ve missed and share with you some cool stuff as well. I’ve missed you guys!
Speaking of blog loveliness, I had to share something I came across via Lobster and Swan. Have you read her blog? So much gorgeousness and she’s got the most gorgeous tabby kittens too. All the more reason to pay a visit.
Now, I try not to always replicate things on other blogs but I really wanted to share this because, well, this blog isn’t called Swoon Worthy for nuthin’.
May I introduce to you the photography of Kent-based photographer Kirsty Mitchell.
(Don’t forget, you can click on any image to view it larger.)
Her work, born from tragedy, weaves fantasy and reality and the lines that blur between them.
With a background in costume design, her pieces are a culmination of fashion and fairytale.
I have to say, I’m utterly inspired and awed by her beautiful work. There’s an ethereal quality that lifts me up and sweeps me into another world.
In her own words…
Are you inspired?
You can see more of Kirsty’s work here.
oh my oh my. such lovely photography, and it IS the stuff of dreams, isn't it? i like this last image best of all, and my mind immediately goes to work on what this expression on the model's face means combined with her magnetism for literature. and the lily pads call up some veyr very special childhood memories. they are still magic to me btw.<br /><br />be well. but be okay even if you&
Magical magical magical… Kirsty's work is astonishing, breathtaking and so very beautiful!! Like you say – blurring the lines between fantasy and reality. Can't take my eyes off it!!<br /><br />A magnificent find, Red! <br /><br />Love to you!<br /><br />Meera xx
Inspired, yes! I admire people with that much creativity and ability to translate their fantasies into real life!
