Shelburne's Bridge of Flowers Goes Terabithia
I just got back from a wonderful visit with my mom, and my sister ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)
rubyrice and her family . While I was there we visited Shelburne Falls Massachusetts's famous bridge of flowers. Frankly, it was much more impressive than I thought it would be--amazing actually (the photo below doesn't do it justice). http://www.shelburnefalls.com/attraction
And it was the perfect backdrop for the head-shot type photos that I've wanted to have taken, but have dreaded.
At any rate, my sister managed to take a few tourist shots of me standing in the wisteria vines. Then, when we got back to her house, she retreated to her studio, turned her artistic magic loose and transformed them into what I'm calling --Shelburne's Bridge of Flowers Goes Terabithia.
It was hard, but Ruby managed to resist the urge to turn my hair into a bird's nest and settled for adding a few feathers instead.

I wish I had a good shot of the gardens on the bridge. They're a tangle of rose bushes, old fashion garden flowers and even woodland plants--like a fantasy garden.
