emotive 0 Posted December 9, 2007 Not your usual fare Mr. Peri. The model looks somewhat uncomfortable, off-balance in her position. Her expression is terrific, a wonderful capture, but she does not seem at ease in the pose, as so many of your models seem to be regardless of the circumstance. When is your book to be published?

John Peri 1,007 Posted December 9, 2007 Thank you Jean-Jacques. If you write in French, you have to leave out the accents and then it's ok .. ! Best wishes, John Link to comment
sideris 0 Posted December 9, 2007 Sorry John, I'm not convinced, perhaps because she don't look -convinced?- comfy with her pose, or the blue dominant, or the slightly overexposed style, or a combination of this factors and more, who knows. But this time the photo can't capture me like other times. Link to comment
John Peri 1,007 Posted December 9, 2007 Of course Carlo, many thanks for giving me your point of view. Most certainly it will weigh heavily in my final opinion of the photo. Link to comment
janis lukas 0 Posted December 9, 2007 I think this is perfect! Exactly what you are calling it,For me this a little masterpiece! Congrats !! 7/7 but the machine do not aloud it!! Link to comment
jim wrightwood 0 Posted December 9, 2007 Hi John. I like the treatment. Esecially with those eyes of hers. I must say however there are two things I do not care for. The hibiscus did not handle your processing well and is taking attention away from your lovely model. The other would be the towel she is lying on. Her skin would look wonderful against the stone of the porch. Just my 2 cents. Jim Link to comment
John Peri 1,007 Posted December 9, 2007 Many thanks. I enjoy the critiques and the criticism ! Again, thank you for taking the trouble. I did post earlier the original photo which may correspond closer to some people's taste. This is just one of my graphic eccentricities posted for my "strange fantasies" file ... :-) Link to comment
alberto_quintal 1 Posted December 9, 2007 Fantastic, excellent executed and great work. Alberto Link to comment
alones 1 Posted December 10, 2007 What an interesting work , Looks like a mix of painting and photo Link to comment
John Peri 1,007 Posted December 10, 2007 Alberto, Alon, thank you very much, but I fully appreciate that someone may not like this kind of thing at all. There are several burned out areas too. I sometimes like to let fantasy guide my imagination and this kind of eccentricity can result. I am really looking for something graphic and decorative ... it's atually quite amusing in print form.

tanyatruong 0 Posted December 10, 2007 inviting everyone to the strange fantasy that John Peri has created ;o). This photo reminds me of a recent beautiful nude artwork by Jock Sturges that i got a chance to see the exhibit in West Hollywood. Is female photographer allowed to enter your fantasy too?. I have my camera ready :o). Link to comment
JPPhoto1664880217 2 Posted December 11, 2007 Conceptually I really like what I think you were trying to do in this foto, but for me the red flowers are far too dominant here. The main subject should be her face/eyes. I suggest either cropping the plant or significantly de-saturating the red in the flowers Link to comment
John Peri 1,007 Posted December 11, 2007 The colours are totally imaginary of course, and it was meant to compete somewhat, but I'll certainly try what you suggest. many thanks Jim. Link to comment
