Just passed this street in Paris, and loved the "art framework" the things around provided when suddenly this person adding to the mystique and also being very similar in looks to Andy...weird ;)

I like this one alot. Partly because of all the thoughts and levels of thoughts you get from looking at it. Also the atmosphere in it is very dual with the background and that interior hitting you at the same time. Great work. /Martin.

Nice light, really like the feeling i get from looking at it. I can almost smell the air and see that light in front of me. Lovely. /Martin.

Thanks a lot Carlos :)

Thank you Jack. I liked their expression a lot in this one. It was one of those rare instances were you just pass something you see, a background or a location and my daughters jumped in front and i got this and a few more but in the end i settled for this one. I like the colors and contrast to the rather "bleak" scenery behind them. /Martin.

Thanks Jack :) Yeh this was a friend of mine that braved this tough contest with his work associate hehe. It was quit brutal, so at the end we had time for a quick picture at the podium where people jumped up to take a quick snap, i took this one and he was happy for that afterwards. But i think the emotions you see were very real, they felt like brothers after that. Very happy:) I thought about me not being here too much yesterday. And as i said earlier i try to be, im patiently waiting for them to launch the new site here on Photo.net. The colors are still a bit off for me in some pictures and i never got an answer from them or help to solve that. It looks fine on Flickr or the swedish site im on, so must be something here. Still i will be here from time to time, love looking at other peoples pictures, so many great photographers around yourself included :) /Martin.

Thank you Jack! Well its not the most "common" portrait i suppose so maybe people do not see what you and i see hehe, not sure. Its different maybe. The "veil" is actually something we came up with that was just used for these portraits in a spur of the moment kind of thing. I wanted the mood to be a little "Edgar alan Poeish" if you know what i mean, and then the "veil" which is just some makeup became like an "occult" mask in my mind. Something to add to the mystique of her persona. Im not sure others see it that way, but that was my idea;) /martin.

The first spring picture to celebrate the end of the Winter here in Sweden.
