Lamia



While googling the term "Lamia", I came across this image in a blog that fascinated me. I have no idea what it's from, since the original link no longer works. But it is a beautiful image reminsicent of Waterhouse's Lamia.

Edit: After a quick search, I found more!! Oh please check out this link for more gorgeous photographic interpretations of Waterhouse! (Saving images from the site is disabled, which I will respect and not repost here, but trust me...go look!)
