It was as if God was telling New Yorkers that he loved every single one of them.

Yerby on her work:
My art is mixed media photography, and collage . As a Naturalist collect specimens for their studies and museums , I photograph my own collections as well as others. Using nineteenth-century photography techniques, and modern chemicals, I try to evoke the beauty of nature and a bygone time… All my work is informed by my surroundings. Each piece speaking of Beauty,
Stéphane Picot’s beautiful macro photography makes me dread the spring resurgence of bugs a little less. Especially if it means getting to see more photos like these.

About the work:
I am all about photos which are dark in mood or have an overall melancholy and mysterious feeling…I am starting to broaden my horizons to less melancholy subjects. However, I do live in Seattle so that is what I am surrounded by much of the year.

Attracting men is child’s play, ladies – just grow up and act your age
I’ll declare my own interest right here at the start and admit that, like the vast majority of people, I find youthful looks appealing. My husband, whom I have been with since he was 23, hits 40 this year and still often gets ID’d when he buys alcohol. But there’s a big difference between saying that youthfulness is sexually attractive and saying that babyhood is. Under the headline “Is This the Sexiest Ever Face?”, a headshot of the pretty model Karlie Kloss (19 years old – modelling since the age of 13) was analysed feature by feature with reference to a book by Robin Dunbar, called The Science of Love and Betrayal. Alongside the usual do-this-or-you’ll-die-a-spinster must-haves like fine brows and a delicate jaw, the magazine said: “For maximum sex appeal, your eyes should be small and be positioned halfway down your face (like a baby’s – don’t ask) as a way of indicating youth and fertility. Think Kate Moss, whose low-set eyes sit on a par with the tips of her ears.” A few flicks on, a five-age beauty feature entitled “Oh, Baby!” imparts the following wisdom (under a photo of the model-of-the-moment, Lindsey Wixson, who is 18, looks closer to eight and began modelling at 15): “Spring’s most flattering beauty trends are inspired by the first flushes of youth – think virgin hair, cherubic cheeks and plump, peachy skin”.
