A Day Dream

A Day Dream

A woman bathing in a desert

This surrealistic photograph was taken in a studio where the actress Diana Churchill posed on a stage with the background already made up. The photograph is just as the scene was in real life. There were no touch ups made to create the fantasy scene. This meant the models McBean used had to sit with their heads in precarious holes in order to capture the picture.
