inspired by bronte part 3
This is the third installment in my "Inspired by Bronte" series of photo collages, created as part of Bronte-Along -- this time inspired by Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights. I read the book years ago, and just finished re-watching the BBC version with the very fine and very smoldery Tom Hardy as Heathcliff. I want to go walking on the moors...
There's a link to all my Bronte-inspired posts here.

inspired by bronte part 2
Here are some more images inspired by reading and watching the Bronte sisters, as part of the adventure that is Bronte-Along. These are photo collages I created using some of my own photos and also photos and textures gleaned from creative commons. This time they're inspired by Anne Bronte's The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. The lonely house, the sheep in the mist on the moors....I really liked the imagery.

inspired by bronte
Here are some images inspired by reading and watching Jane Eyre, as mentioned in my last post about Bronte-Along. These are photo collages I created using photos and textures gleaned from creative commons. A wonderful resource for finding the tools to get inspired!

bronte along!
My favorite book of all time, ever, and for the rest of time is Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte. And I've finally found a group of like-minded ladies who plan to celebrate the wonders of Jane and Mr. Rochester through blogging and creating and reading and watching the movie and just embodying the Jane Eyre mystique. I've read the book probably 15 times, and have seen 4 or 5 versions of the movie (the best being the most recent Masterpiece Theatre version from 2006.)
Melissa Averinos of Yummy Goods in West Barnstable and her friend Beth Dunn, along with a group of ardent Jane Eyre and Bronte fans, are starting a new online group called Bronte Along. It looks like a lot of fun, without any of the pressure of a regular book group. Dreaming, movie watching, creativity, and swooning are encouraged. I plan to take some photographs that evoke the Jane Eyre vibe -- not sure how I'm going to manifest that here on Cape Cod, but that's the challenge, right? So join in, read along, get out the hankies, and dream of going back to Thornfield Hall.
