It’s been years in the making, but Rita and I finally set a date to work on her vision of the Millais painting, Ophelia. We had kicked around a few different locations, finally settling on one that I came across during another shoot. Rita and her grandmother constructed the dress and off we went! I was impressed that she was so willing to walk through muck and bugs to do this and I did my part, getting into the water up to my chest (thank you Slik for making a ridiculously sturdy tripod since my camera was an inch above the water). More photos to follow but here’s a first look.
