Acetone print..

An incredible image- the technique is both intruiging and effective. The color and texture are wonderful. Very nice...

Classic image with wonderful tones. Emil, you never cease to amaze me.

I in delight!

This is really fantastic. Thanks a lot too for the technical details... What a stunning image !

Wow, this image is incredibly beautiful. I don't know what to say except that it is beyond photography as I knew it.

Your work is truly superior! your approach of technics with such talented point of view.. it´s like rembrandt with a camera!

i´ll be glad to seet it as the photo of the week ( if i can call it a photo!)

Emil, this is so beautiful. It is such a great pose and the technique is wonderful. This is truly one of the Great photos on this site. Congrats!!!

This is very unique, and very beautiful.

The technique matched and enhanced your subject beautifully. The lack of fine detail only serves to add to the mystery of this woman, begging you to look at her longer. A wonderful piece of art Emil. I enjoy all of your work and I'm in awe that you get such sharp photos of people with light painting. They breathe don't they?

I love it.

Almost like a painting. Beautiful image, superb use of shadows and what a great end result.

It's strange cause I must admit that in general, I don't like too much the photos that are transformed by technical stuff, and moreover, when a photo looks like a painting, I often think that it's cheating in the sense that today, it is as if we didn't really need painters anymore as it can all be done on photoshop! And better even. I don't know if I'm very clear but well...Anyway, what I want to say is that I really like this photo! It's really good! The darkness, the movement of the dress, the hair...I don't have a clue how to do these things with coffee, ashes and all that stuff, but the result is great! You're an artist man.

I agree with all the comments!! It's a fantastic picture. "Fells" like a painting. Just enough detail and sharpness (to the original photograph, not the texture) to give a dreamlike effect. The pose and lighting is also perfect! A 10/10!!

 

BTW, you should really give this picture a title.

Wonderful use of the diagonal to lead our eyes.

Wonderful tone and texture!

beautiful image. nicely done!

Objects and themes are somewhat deviated to narrow private one only.

What about to break off that, Emil ?

 

:-))

 

Technique - yes, interesting, but it's the outline and composition that make this image stand out of the rest.

It's perfectly composed in geometrical terms, balanced like a japanese character executed by a master calligrapher.

"This is a special technique... a lot of acetone was applyed" Ran out of coffee again? Acetone, mud...WHATEVER!

This is the first photo I've felt compelled to comment on here in quite some time. Finally now I see the entire point of the bustle - what it must have been in its day - and I think it should make a comeback. And be worn in just this way. A very nice image. Almost primordial.

Good it keeps coming on the first page - THIS is the one that deserves to become POW, not the pitiful fake that is hanging there now (however nice the fake may look, it's not a photograph)

Sometimes I'm left wondering what the term "fine art photography" is meant to encompass. But, a picture is worth a thousand words, as they say..and this picture didn't leave me wondering at all. Truly beautiful.

I stumbled onto your photo purely by chance. I glad that a wrong internet turn led me to this image. Absolutely beautiful--you are truly an artist. Thank you for sharing your work.

One of the few perfect photos that I've ever seen.

 

 

Soulful..

hmmmmmmm....wooow:)
