Wonderful series, Nik. The color contrasts and those between the the model's poses and the industrial context accord perfectly. Best work by you I've seen on OPF to date.
Cheers
Mike

Some don't work well for me, because the idea does not transcend the technique.


However two stand out. These are # 4 & 6, your best work to date The 4th for it's total interest and the other, the 6th for its crude confrontation of her body, with every curve, sensuous or not, presented as if teasing to mate. Crude almost vulgar but it works for me! The idea dominates not how it was made.

I look for the work being some whole "unit of art" so to speak, as if there could ever be such a thing. By that I mean that the piece has in its entirety a sense that it is a whole idea and it lives. I'm impressed. You're moving!

I guess we're on our way to solidify "how to impress your friends with your photography sklills" rules-of-thumb:

1) find beautiful (and very experienced) model
2) find an impressive (as well as little known and hard-to-get-in) location
3) make sure she's dressed beautifully (or not wearing much at all:)
4) spend some $$ on dozens of yards of nice chiffon
5) wait for the good light to settle in
6) shoot away

Pretty simple, huh;-)?
