Those are really interesting. Not sure I could hang them on my wall though. My brain would be annoyed.

I love these. I am disturbed however that she is a journalist and poet and photographer. I'd settle for one of those...
I love what she did with light. So interesting and gives each photo a maturity not produced by many.
She's got something with symmetries, and pairs, no? Loving especially the birdie ones.
She has such an interesting perspective.... great subject matter makes it even more interesting....
Love this!
A very complicated relationship indeed. I'm always unconfortable with animals in cages.
She certainly knows how evoke a certain amount of discomfort, doesn't she.
While I like them, a lot, I am having a negetive reaction, emotionally.
Good stuff!!
cute creatures, i love them :)
These are incredible. I love the surreal quality of some of these - and the unsettling quality of others.
woww some great pictures!!! ♥
Those are definitely COOL. But wtf is the one in the water with a tail? That is creepy.
I really thought they were paintings. There's one of what looks like a falcon, which reminds me of something that happened to me recently. I had a falcon guest in my home. I found the little guy in my back yard, and took him in for the night.
