I love the first photograph. One of my favorite paintings back in high school was of Ophelia floating in the river! Definitely evokes the feelings I got from that painting. good job!

Your dress made me see Ophelia floating in the river… although I am not very familiar with neither the paintings nor the play (uncivilized me). I think you captured her character fabulously!
