XII-Hanged Man

XII-Hanged Man

Sometimes its amazing how simple something can be. I spent months obsessing over how I was going to rig the hanged man card just right to have someone hanging upside down by one foot. Only in the last week or so did it occur to me that I had changed the base pose of pretty much every other card, so why not that one?

Anyway, once I figured out that i should change the base pose, I knew exactly what I wanted to do with this one. I had wanted a male bondage card to offset Temperance anyway, and Cade seemed like a natural for it.

    This turned out wonderfully! Sometimes we just have to get out of our own way!

    this is really great! you know I dig all your tarot shots, but I think I like that once again you’ve diverted from the "standard" of the card and come up with something I think suits the meaning better than the original does in this modern day.

    @Mike Wood Photography: thanks. I was very happy with how it turned out.

    @lrayholly: yeah. I don’t know why I made it so complicated.

    @mickeysacks: you think? I love how it looks but I worry that tarot purists won’t approve. I guess that’s silly given that I modified all the other cards too. I dunno why this one was special in my head.

    @*Kristene: thank you.

    @DeHoll: thanks.

    What a seriously cool idea to make a bunch of pictures like a deck of Tarot cards. This is really cool.
