Velveteen Rabbit *

Austin, TX

My daughter and I are currently performing in this musical, which is an original production by Kids Acting. I chose this image because of several references to the word fly. There is the cow. The fairy is sort of flying through the air by taking a ride on the moon. The moon itself is a fly. In front of the moon is a scrim, which is also a fly.

In this scene Furdy, the rabbit character has been in a discussion with a homeless man about what it is to be real.

Post processing inluded slight levels, resizing, DSLR Tools to remove color blotches, and USM.


other sizes: small medium original auto

Roberta,

I had no idea you left a comment until now, because evidently you must be logged in to see the comments.

The scrim is a very interesting thing to work with. It's a large piece of loosely woven cloth that is white. If lit from the front, if the subject behind it is not lit, you can't see it. If the subject behind the scrim is lit, you can see it very clearly, as in this picture. -- Victor

Victor,
I like the triangular composition and the lighting. The set is amazing. Roberta
