Light & Shadow Play ( 2nd Version)

Belongs to the series of " Following the Light" ( second version).

Thanks. Pnina

I love this series!!

I like it, Pnina. Photography is to paint with light after all.

If she eventually rented the appartment, I think she should also buy the photograph and put it on the wall. An excellent, simple, story telling photo (I hope I am not mistaken, the house is for rent not for sale...; 7/7)

You really have a talent for capturing atmospheres and moods. My only wish was that she was not so centered. Also I am curious how this would look desaturated. In any case, another memorable submission IMO.

Thank you Pedro, Ray, and Amar. It is real nice to get your comments. Pnina

Manolis, first I like your sense of humour....and your story invention, to bring you a little to reality.....it is a gallery! and a very beautiful one,with great light, and not for sale..... !! Thank you for your nice comment, that made me smile, and scoring and visit. Pnina

This one is fantastic, Pnina! I love evrything in this photo - light, shadows, pose, comp. colors...what more can I say...

anothr one from your great series. and this one is 7/7 for me.

 

Cheers and have a great night, allon.

Superb composition, pnina, and great play of light.

OK Pnina, you can cut one point from my rating for the appartment. But I correctly found that it is for rent and not for sale. I might have guessed. Although there are no paintings on the visible walls and the space looks small and cosy, and although we don't see her eyes, her face and posture are fixed on the opposit wall (left). There must be something there, and certainly not a spider. It IS a story telling photograph; not necessarilly a TRUE-STORY-telling photograph. Still 7/7.

Manolis, sorry that you live in Paris, your creativity is certainly my " cup of tea"............Pnina

Excellent shot with great creativity.

Thank you Allon for everything!

 

Thank you Maria and Gaetan, your visits are very nice for me. Pnina

I get the sense that she is saying goodbye to her old apartment instead of looking to rent a new one. It is a very wistful image in either case.

Neal, as long as my creativity is continuing with yours( and Mannolis!!), we are already a creative team.....Thanks Pnina

I can see why this interior inspired you to re-create the feel of the old Dutch masters! - the black and white tiled floor and the light flooding in the windows. This shot to me has echoes of these paintings brought up to date. It shares that quiet reflective quality. The light on her head is an invitation to empathise with her in her empty surroundings. Very effective!

very good and well composed image!!!!!

Beautiful!

Wonderful again Pnina, a superb series. Regards Paul.

Colin. Thanks for your interpretation. Yes it is a continuation of Hommage-Vermeer.I'm following his concept, but enlarged it to " Follow the light" and to create in that old house.Pnina

This is great. Such wonderful atmosphere. Excellent composition too.

Thank you all, Michel B., Francesco, Didi and Paul,It is so nice to have you here, and read what you think.Thanks again. Pnina

I like how the light comes from a third window which is not in the scene.Also how the model is at the very edge of that light coming from the window, the top of her head is in shadow, this really accentuates the light. Very enjoyable light play!

I don't know what to say! That is why they say a picture is worth a thousand words. Magificant.

Jos, sometimes I wonder how observant you are! yes the light is not coming from the windows in the photo! Thanks for your interpratation, and comment.

 

Howard,Thanks for not finding the words...Usualy I think you have all the words to express yourself........Thanks again. Pnina
