The Pegasus is from a frosted crystal ornament in our house.  The amazing background is from NASA.

Imagery: majestic photo women

Posted on February 29, 2012 | Leave a comment
by ©VANDIELANDNational Geographic that arrived today (or more like looking at the pictures), when I arrived on their PHOTO JOURNAL section. They featured Traer Scott and more specifically her Natural History portfolio. It is such an amazing set! The photographer in me just wants to steal her idea and go out and do the exact same thing, although I know that the range of photos she captured (candidly, many props to her), is worth many, many hours waiting in front of dioramas.
