lydia, i have one of these masks from venice and it is downright spooky: it is a smiling face but void of something, i'm not sure what. empathy? emotion?
and then there is me and i think you too: too humanly vulnerable to avoid feeling!
Phivos~ We did enjoy it, but not as many kids came trick-or-treating this year.
Jinksy~ Hat envy! That is good!
Khaled KEM~ I found it in a book of quotations/sayings that belonged to my grandmother, and was instantly taken by it.
izzy~ s..-..h..-..a..-..d..-..o..-..w!!!
Darlene~ I like your new portrait shot! I loved this costume when I saw the image, but am not at all sure of when Carnivale is held. Now I am curious to know. :)
Owen~ Your comment sounds like the beginning of a wicked-good song! Happy Hallows Eve to you too.
kj~ "too humanly vulnerable..." - thank you for that comment. :) You really hit on something about the void in the smiling mask. It creeps me out, the lack of empathy that you mentioned. Good Point!

Enjoy your Hallows Eve!
I'm green with hat envy! lol :)
I like that quote Lydia.
Stretch those shadows !
Ah yes, Carnivalle in Venice. I have seen pictures of some of the costumes and they must cost a fortune. Nowhere celebrates like Venice.
I don't think Carnivalle is held on our Halloween date (I could be worng), but it certainly is a close relative to our celebration.
We live in a world full of shadows... shadows getting longer daily. Getting hard to see for all the shadows...
Happy Hallows eve...
