 My version of The Empress. I wanted to make sure I had a scepter, of which I had none, so I made the best I could with what I had on hand. The scepter is made of a cardboard tube, to which I hot glued decorative glass beads. On the tip is what is called a magic egg. I also wanted a crown, but I had no stars, but since The Empress is known for nature and a creator of life I thought the flowers would be ok. I also had no fields of wheat, but hope the trees will provide the dominion over growing things. I just wish the grass had been a little greener.

Lovely interpretation. Perhaps shooting at dawn or dusk might have given you more dramatic natural light.

this is one of those pictures where clarity should be pushed to the far left to make it very dreamy and soft, nice set up
