That's how you explain a mermaid, but she isn't just any mermaid. She lives on a private residence that only opens to the public once a year. Over the years, I've taken numerous photos of her at different angles, but I think I like the way this one captures that mysterious, mythical, mystical quality.
indeed, i think your choice of shooting through has worked really well to make her seem more surreal. many thanks for following, tracy - much appreciated :)
