woman and light

Posted by xavier cardell (menorca-barcelona, Spain) on 28 May 2009 in Abstract & Conceptual and Portfolio.

The model is actually in a studio. The window is from old castle, and the foggy light is hand made in PS. The compression of the file for the blog destroys a bit the texture of the light, but as a picture for you to do your critiques I hope it works.

The photographic assembly creates a particular atmosphere and tells a story.
To us to interpret it.

He entrado en tu Blog a través de los comentarios de la página de Elmenut. Mi más sincera enhorabuena. Me agrada todo lo que he vusto. Pero no puedo menos de hacer un comentario a tu foto de hoy: perfecta la realización, la puesta en escena, el aire de misterio que rodea a la modelo, queda acrecentado al no ser visible ningún rasgo de su rostro y la luz... de lujo. Felicidades.
Espero seguir disfrutando de tu buen hacer.
Cordiales saludos.

Molt bona, ja saps el que penso del comentari a flickr. M'encanta el tractament de la llum, els elements de l'escena i l'actitud de la model. A mi el nus sempre m'ha fet molt de respecte, trobo que ets molt valent d'enfrontar-t'hi a aquest estil, i amb tans bons resultats d'entrada. Nano, tens talent!!

The foto is well done. Definatley and I am impressed with your abilities. And I think it really works well, even if you tell the trick it still is hard to recognize, that the light source is not the window.

Great montage. You have created an effect that would be hard to distinguish from a naturally illuminated photograph. Terrific!
