Marquise de Merteuil - Vicomte de Valmont

Monsieur Valmont dresses this way all the time. I met him in a

nightclub (that's why you see strange surroundings). Very original

individual.

I am intrigued by his style. I am very fond of the time frame in which he styles himself from. It is wonderful to see someone confident enough to express their preferences openly! This is a marvelous photo. I like the environmental effects, the pose, the message, and the attitude behind it, very expressive! Great Job! - Cheri Brickley

Bingo again.

Bud, all I wanna know is how the hell do you meet these people. Christ my life is boring.

Hello Chris,

 

Is the girl part of his dress or is that your arty touch? I like the light on his pants, very fertile man !!! Cool portrait. Best Geert

Interesting concept, even if her attitude is more Cécile de Volanges. Even though I can imagine it would be hard to accomplish it in a controlled setting, your reference to the club makes me want to see them on a group of otherwise dressed party goers.

 

I like the side front light a lot, and it reminded me somewhat of Igor Amelkovich's work on nudes posted here in Photo.net. Was the change on the texture of the wall behind them natural or digitally added later?

Ricardo," the blurred area around the head... Unfortunately my film was bent in that area and I had an ugly white spot, so I did some unsupervised stamping. I would have done it differently now knowing all I know today...

 

Very interesting and a dynamic image.

Really an excellent double portrait!!!
