beauty sometimes just is not within

I've looked and looked at Kristen Stewart online and I've got to say it was difficult to find images not relating to Twilight or her success because of the franchise. She has a very odd look though I'm finding it difficult to define her. She's not conventional, quite clearly, she does actually represent Bella Swan how Bella Swan sees herself - plain. Obviously the application of make-up does help, but this underlying urge to argue how she even came by the role because of her obvious lack of talent for acting. Harsh, but true. She's beautiful in the way she holds herself, not on camera but she clearly doesn't give a shit, so good for her. The movie the runaways, despite acting, painted her in the better light moving her more to the words artist than plain jane.

I have had this on draft for months and want to change the direction of the blog so I'm more or less fishing out the rubbish from my drafts, then starting over.

taylor swift

I found this collection of images on once again, my new creative hub of images - weheartit.com, once again, please follow me - weheartit.com/aliceswinter. Anyway, Taylor Swift is beautiful, not in keeping with my classic indie girl fad, but the complete opposite, pink, sparkly and supremely girlish. But I do love these images, they are unique and in a rare collection for an internet site. But I thought they were natural. Unplugged from her mic and just being Taylor, in my eyes.
enjoy!

we are not so different, you and i.

This fashion story, partly from Vogue, the others in the water posted by the same person, show a haunting beauty which for some reason, was less about the fashion, and more about the models this time. It felt like some kind of witch-craft or magical bond between the girls. The posing is careless and unknowingly loose. Which, in term makes it all the more natural. I just wanted to share these pictures, once again, from weheartit.com.

Driftwood and Trickets

I liked the colour of the sky at this time of night. It was about 6pm and in early summer when the sun is blocked by the house, the sky is a lovely dim blue. I wanted to try the depth-of-field so using the small book I go some nice effects. The framed undeveloped photo was against a lamp-light which made some interesting shots, I just wanted to share it.

Colour Blindness and Depth of Field

I wanted to try the depth of field and close-ups. These worked quite well as the hand one I had to focus and after a couple of tries it did work. I wanted quite simple photo of the full face to see and I thought they were quite interesting results on the canon 550D.

Indie Girl

I'm a big fan of Lissie and I think she is actually more unconventionally beautiful than other rock stars. She's very different. I love dressing in that indie style like her.









This above is my favourite. I love shooting in black and white, I think it gives this kind of mysterious intellingence that makes anything seem beautiful and Lissie looks so natural here, she doesn't generally wear make-up and to be honest it really suits her without it. I love her look with her wavey dirty blonde hair and her blue eyes it gives her a kind of innocence.

Gaga for Gaga

This weekend I bought the new Lady Gaga album, I already think it's great because though it is a pop album gaga manages to make the all of the songs really different and personal. I think that even though she's completely crazy she manages to connect to people of all ages, I generally don't like her type of music because it is usually very manuafactured. But I'm saying gladly that she is an excellent singer/songwriter. I got carried away so I thought I'd put some pictures up of her.
