havanai 0 Posted October 3, 2006 It has been too long since you last treated us to your beautiful work. Glad to see you posting again. This is an amazing photograph, with dramatic lighting that is hard to understand. It appears that her hair is backlit and there even seems to be a backlit highlight on her left forearm. Is the after-the-storm sunlight, behind her, but out of the frame to our left? And then did you fill in with flash?A remarkable achievement and a beautiful image! Link to comment
howard_lipan 0 Posted October 3, 2006 Highly stylized and absolutely first rate. This dramatic and arresting photo is more artistic creation than photographic capture and while my roots are in photojournalism, I appreciate all photographic genre when well done. I absolutely appreciate this fabulous image. Link to comment

igor_amelkovich 2 Posted October 4, 2006 Yes, certainly, I used strobe head at the left, the red filter, and (-1) f-stop for sky. Link to comment

Phil_Light 793 Posted October 24, 2006 Igor- Nice to see some of your new work. This is a stunning piece that almost seems to have been lit on a Hollywood sound stage! After delving into the image a little further I can see that this has been born in the real world. For that you should be applauded. All the elements have come together; earth, sun, sky and wind. Just an outstanding use of the female form against the stark contrast of the natural world. Lighting is also superb, it really appears as if the heavens have illuminated her form. Only one little nit-picky thing; the appearance of a wet or oily reflection from the inside right leg just doesn't seem as natural as everything else. But that is really minor in the overall scheme. Visually arresting! What bunch of idiots rates this image with two (3)'s! Link to comment

frank_hesjedal 0 Posted June 5, 2008 This is definitively a very stylish photograph with a great model and great lighting. To me it is a very artificial pose the model is doing, but it works well. Awesome work. Link to comment
