Very immediate, dramatic, and off-putting in a way that I can't put to words.

Interesting. What attracts you to that one so much?

I'm not sure! I love anything that resembles a dream or a scene in some liminal place--particularly if there's a voyeuristic + ever-so-slightly foreboding feel. (And I just generally love old photos and haziness and anything with an ominous or Twin Peaks-y vibe.)

So, I just now managed to find the photographer of the album cover you mentioned-- the lady floating in the water. I wasn't even looking for it; I was listening to Eno on youtube, and this video used that same picture. It's by Toni Frissel, apparently.

And then, not even two minutes after, I opened Tumblr, and lo, the first post was this collage:

A bit spooky.

I looked through her other stuff, but wasn't anything similar to it, sadly.

The brush technique used by Heidi Fourie looks amazing.. and that last shot "Spring Awakening" is beautifully eerie. It would make a wonderful back piece if you removed some of the density.

I want that Miranda Meeks piece. I googled some of her other work as well, very cool.
