Would be bolder if the end of the barrel wasn't cut off.

Here's my new one. Stumbled upon it by accident while looking for gorgeous but tasteful pics of beautiful women.

(Anyone who wants the full-sized version, PM me.)

 
A unique choice, what drew you to it?

There's a certain sadness and loneliness to it.

A couple of days ago, I posted my latest story on my current short story topic; located on a different site. (My stories tend to not be family friendly.) One of the veteran moderators on that site was sad because there were only a handful of shows of her favorite vampire series left this season. To cheer her up, I came up with a romantic vampire tale based on a phrase from a new cosmetics commercial. (Story ideas usually pop into my brain without warning.)

In the story, the female vampire finds true love. Before being honest with her man, she tells him she wants to wait to get to know him a bit better; before they become intimate. She tells him she had a couple of bad relationships during the turn of the century. (He assumes she meant the turn of this century.)

As soon as I saw that picture of a respectably dressed young woman, clearly during the late 19th century in England, I was instantly reminded of the character I created just a couple of days ago. She looks out into the lonely night, as snow begins to fall. Wondering where her true love might be. The saddness comes into being when you realize it's going to be nearly 120 years before she finds what she wants and needs.

Stumbled onto that pic by accident, and just had to use it.

Picture I took at local state park. Reminds me of times gone by. The way things where when I was growing up.

Amen. You could park me in that house any day of the week, as long as I had plenty of property and wildlife. A stream running through my property with some rainbow and brook trout in it wouldn't be intolerable either.:thumbsup:
