Aberrant: abnormal

What a fantastic word to build a photograph around! I had so many ideas for this, including a tongue-in-cheek one of just a regular SP. ;)

Then I began to think about fashion photography and runway shows, and how they are so unrealistic and fantastical. No one would actually walk down the streets made up and dressed the way they are on runways. At least, not sanely so (hopefully). The picture those fashion shows present just isn't normal, but I still drool over fashion photography and find the costuming and make-up beautiful. Those images present strange fantasies as reality. I latch on to that idea whole-heartedly.

That, or I've just been watching way too much anime lately. :P
