Witche of the West Woodsby ~Acid-PopTart

DescriptionDetailsShare
Believe it or not, I got behind the lens! It's been a while since I've shot, mostly I've been doing modeling or style work.

This is the lovely Ms Poisoness who let me dress her all up in my famous VooDoo Baby skirt, which was a labour of love - it took forever to make that skirt. A large amount of hand work went into it.

Hopefully I didn't freeze the woman too bad as it was pretty chilly when we shot yesterday and the wind wasn't helping.

Model: Ms Poisoness
Photographer: Acid PopTart
Wardrobe/Hair/MUA: The House of S&M (which is me)

Did I mention that I love witches :heart: ? But why crosses? Shouldn't you be wearing pentacles?

Actually, I'm not the model in this shot, I'm the photographer and I also did her wardrobe. ;) I suppose in the typical sense and with today's view, witches usually equal pentagrams. I study such a collection of varied religions from vodou (which uses a lot of crosses) to Buddhism, that I start merging and melding.... then I'm posting photos and forced to come up with a title and some things just come out. Plus, a lot of people practicing their true religion were forced to act under a different guise to protect themselves.

Yeah I know what you mean, but the sad truth is even though they pretended to be practicing chistianity to avoid suspicion, in the dark ages people were so afraid of their own shadow thanks to the church, that any woman who was too skilled at anything was viewed as a witch and burned. The inquisition must have been the worst time to be alive then durring any major war, with the possible acception of WWII if you were Jewish :-( .

I did quite a few research papers in college on witches and the Inquisition, horrible times. I couldn't even use the term "10 foot pole" as in "wouldn't touch so and so with a ten foot pole" as it was used as a torture device and witch "indicator". WWII had immense amounts of horrors as well, my great uncle was tortured and executed along with his wife for being suspected spies for the Allies, right in front of their kids.
