Santa has come to my home!

Santa charged my friend Laura to bring me a gift! ;)
Today I got a pretty Christmas box, and inside it I found a very lovely dress from Compulsion :))
It's something that remembers the famous Coco's words about "a little black dress" :)

A double-layered short dress: a simple black lace tunic, covered by a smaller opaque one. Lace is shown on the top and sticks out from the bottom edge of the graceful skirt. On the high waist, it's decorated by a tiny belt with a large golden buckle. Sober, simple and extremely classy!
I'm very happy to hear from Laura that she thought of me, when she had seen that. I think that is a great compliment being viewed as a girl who matches this great style!
So, I thank her by styling the dress at my best and shooting it in a proper place, the glamorous Deco Cafe at Bay City.
Happy Holidays!

Frosty Impressions contest at Galerie der Sinne - 2nd winner

I've taken part in the Frosty Winter contest at Galerie der Sinne, whose owners Pippa Mint and Herzkoenig Actor are very active in supporting art photography. They make seasonal contests at their beautiful venue, and award ceremonies are enriched by beautiful concerts.

I'd had the honor to be among the winners, this time, and I enjoyed a lovely night of live guitar music by Arminus Writer.

Antartica Slade and Damatjo Magic have bee the 1st and the 3rd winner with their beautiful photos.

Many thanks to the Galerie and to its owners, and also to the jury, made by Brin Oh, Falbala Farey, Roy Mildor and Max Butoh.
