it seems like she is waiting for someone ... but shes been left on our own ... thats my response to this
i like the way the lighting brings out the isolation element

o darling, i like where your going with all this, a much sadder direction, but almost an untapped beauty for you to capture. i love the softness, and almost pink glow hidden here. so beautiful.

Wow...thank you, dove. I am working to find new directions, new things to say and new ways to say them. I noticed recently that so many of my images are taken close up...I think I want to stare experimenting with distance and space...And I'm glad you like where I've started from!

I love everything about this pic, the model (her clothes, her hair, her pose, those shoes) the vertical boarding on the floor, the dark shadows around the frame... super lovely dear!
I have this feeling that I'm not supposed to be looking (your photos do that to me quite often - and I like that)

Thank you...The thing I love most about toycameras is the "timeless" feel they give...It really does make a difference in what I do.

the grain looks good. and her pose is rather strange and good.
and her dress and shoes

Thank you so much, Nena! I'm really, really happy with how this image turned out! I've been thinking lately how much of my work is done close up, I wanted to see what I could do using distance and framing...that you think it belongs in a magazine just make me smile like crazy!

i really love the setup. the shadows make this intense to me, a very imposing image, puts an impression in my minds eye.

Gracias, Nena! I really think that something from outside me was in control when I took these...I almost can't claim them as mine, you know? But I'm thrilled that you like it!

Well thank you! It's hard to take full credit for the composition when the Clack does so much of it's own creating...it's the most fun thing about toycameras...you never know quite what they're going to see!

haha...that's the amazing thing about photography. you bring about new things by accident and mold them into something amazing. heh

Wa-ha-hey! Long time no see...really digging this picture. It's a lot mroe voyueristic, almost as if the model's just now noticing you're taking their picture. With my photos, I tend to push in a bit more, make it seem as if the model's perfectly aware that their picture is being taken. I think I like your style a it more...

One of the best comments I've ever recieved about my work is that it looks like you've walked in on something or someone...I'm totally caught up in giving the feeling that the viewer is in the moment, seeing what is usually hidden...

wow... you get the feeling you are walking down a corridor in a hotel and turn as you pass to see something happening out the corner of your eye... but isnt that the absolute joy of emotive voyeuristic imagery... well done
