Alice falling


Alice responded to an ad for a group shoot. And after this group photo shoot I reached out to her and asked her for a solo shoot. Her preference was to pose in the sea surf, hoewever we found out that most of the beaches in the Netherlands are filled with people. So finally we decided on a location near the sea and behind some dunes.

Alice proposed to accompany the resulting photo with an interesting and mysterious text fragment:

"Down, down, down. Would the fall never come to an end?“ I wonder how many miles I’ve fallen by this time?” she said aloud. “I must be getting somewhere near the centre of the earth. Let me see that would be four thousand miles down, I think—” (for, you see, Alice had learnt several things of this sort in her lessons in the schoolroom, and though this was not a very good opportunity for showing off her knowledge, as there was no one to listen to her, still it was good practice to say it over) “ —yes, that ’s about the right distance—but then I wonder what Latitude or Longitude I ’ve got to ?” (Alice had not the slightest idea what Latitude was, or Longitude either, but she thought they were nice grand words to say.)"

Fragment from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, 1865, by Lewis Carroll
