Aurora, also known as Sleeping Beauty or Briar Rose, is a fictional character who appears in Walt Disney Productions' animated film Sleeping Beauty (1959). Voiced by Mary Costa, Aurora is the only child of King Stefan and Queen Leah. An evil fairy named Maleficent seeks revenge for not being invited to Aurora's christening and curses the newborn princess, foretelling that she will prick her finger on a spinning wheel's spindle and die before sunset on her sixteenth birthday. Merryweather, one of the three good fairies, weakened the curse so Aurora would only sleep. Determined to prevent this, three good fairies raise Aurora as a peasant in order to protect her, patiently awaiting her sixteenth birthday—the day the spell can only be broken by a kiss from her true love, Prince Phillip.





Eloise Masse is a French girl I met at the Venice Carnevale 9 years ago. She comes to the Carnevale almost every year and she is a familiar face at all the most extravagant parties at the Venice Carnevale. Sleeping Beauty is a favourite theme for her many dresses. This shiny dress is this year's costume of Aurora.



The Venice Carnevale is not solely about masks. Local Italians and an increasing number of foreign costumers prefer historical costumes or painted faces. During Carnevale, the whole Venice becomes a real life theatrical stage, and many of these historical costumes carry deep perspectives...

And as usual, the portraits are just done on the busy streets of Venice and using natural lighting only...It is not an indoor photo studio, there is no artificial lighting, flash or reflectors...With my costumed friends, we just take our street portraiture to an all new level....

Beautifully written and visually descriptive in a way that makes the experience feel almost cinematic. The atmosphere created through the words was calming and immersive, which kept me reading all the way through. I recently came across a photography related discussion on https://usvacuums.com/ where people talked about storytelling through visuals, and this article captures that same artistic feeling perfectly.

Beautifully written post that captured the atmosphere and emotion behind the photography so well. The descriptions felt calm and immersive, allowing readers to appreciate the artistic perspective more deeply. I especially liked how the content focused on the experience and feeling connected to the images rather than just technical details. It also reminded me of a thoughtful discussion on https://www.floridaprobatelawgroup.com/ about how visual storytelling creates lasting impressions. This was a creative and genuinely enjoyable article to read today.

Your photography of the Aurora is absolutely stunning and beautifully captured. I appreciated how you explained the techniques behind getting such perfect shots. I recently read a discussion on https://gocollectiv.com/ that touched on creative project management in photography, which added another layer of perspective.
