Last year I worked with a fantastic model who goes by the name Hannah Noel-http://www.modelmayhem.com/2527809 and we did some of my favorite stuff that I've done.  Well, she wrote to me and asked if I was cool with her entering a model contest held by a magazine called Indiebration.  I said sure because I think she is just fantastic and I hoped she would win and I had never had anything I've done used for one of those things. 

Turns out she won with a large majority of the vote.  I'm very happy for her, she deserves it.

So, I imagine its not a big deal to most people who get published all the time and all that but I have never won anything or been published or any of that crap and I thought it was kinda cool.

Here is the photo btw,

As you well know... your work has always disturbed me. Your photographs have caused many a nightmare around here, as well as cold sweats, dizziness, nausea, and other digestive actions that I won't get into here. Your AVI totally creeps me out and always has. Alas... you have always been one of my favorite photographers and with shots like this... will more than likely remain in that elite bunch I call 'my favs.'  Congrats and keep up the good work! wink

You are one of a very small number of people here whose work I actually LOVE, because your work continues to validate photography as a truly creative medium (rather than just as a means of churning out endless representations of the mundane).

I never thought I'd find reason to post in this forum, but then you posted this.

Congratu-frickin-lations, SPRINGHEEL and Hannah Noel.

There are so many elements to take in when I view your picture... The marble quality of the skin, yet somehow she still looks human, she looks both dead and alive. You've creeped me out yet I've come back to look a number of times. A very uncomfortable well done and heartfelt congratulations.
