I am working on a spoof site related, topically, to the upcoming hanging. If anyone has any photos (to which they own the rights) of models with nooses, either holding them, around their neck, a purse with a strap that's a noose, or anything like that, please get in touch!

This is HUMOR, so please, no actual gallows shots. The idea is the noose as a fashion accessory. Dark humor, to be sure, but still humor.

My site spoofs have gotten national attention before, so if you do have such a photo and let me use it, I will credit you on the site. The site is a two- or three-page quick spoof to take advantage of the topical nature of the news. It'll be up within 24 hours, and stay up for a few weeks, likely.

lol I thought you meant" noses" and I was going to come in here and yell at you and curse the abomination of your spelling typo...

And then I realized you actually meant "nooses" lol.

Thank god. I'd hope we all had noses. tongue

Argh, there's a tongue-in-cheek noose shot I've always wanted to do, but insufficient talent around here - at my distance and price range, that is :-P

So no, my post didn't aid your search in any way, and only reminded me of what I'm missing. Cool concept, though. I'll be by to look!

It's already old noose.  Saddam was already hanged.

Damn it!  I was already to shoot Saddam, but he got hung up before I could do it. 

Saw where there is a slightly used noose for sale.  wink

You may want to try Tyher, MM#2593.  I have one such image made by him, but Tyher owns the copyright.  I believe he has several photos along these lines that would interest you.
