Strange Day 2

I made this two weeks ago using a photograph taken by a friend - he's not a professional in this field, but somehow he just got the eyes. Actually I didn't quite like this one when it had colors - which was the reason I made it duotone. The woman in the thing is Emma Shapplin, a celebrated classical-crossover diva from France. I'm aware of the fact that this thing looks cheap, but nonetheless it looks vibrant for me.

Her music is pretty much about her imaginations and quite fairy tale-like (it does remind you of Sarah Brightman, doesn't it?) She is a coloratura soprano that can jump between octaves effortlessly. She also wrote most of the songs in her latest album, Etterna, which was released on 2002. I'm eagerly waiting for her next album, really.
As always, here are some screenshots of Emma I took from various videos.




I could've written more about her but considering how sore my eyes are already at the moment...
