Thinking under the moonlight, a photo from Vaud, West

Photographer's Note

Walking by the city by night has always something special. We walk by common places but the darkness or the unusual inlighting gives another atmosphere to the place.

Quite a moody shot Javier, the girl has strong features as it is, but the light helps portray that even further. Classic black and white.

Her gaze to the light and light on her face, that strong light drawing her lines... just amazing...
Focus on her eye leaves everything outside, in a blurry and dark zone.
Congrats,
Burcu

Hi Javier!
I actually like the not so sharp look, the eyes are fully there and that is enough. It enhances the mood, very intimate and mysterious, yet familiar, the cigarette, the smoke. That light is fabulous, as is the background, like a canvas, the elegant hand. Very good work, very beautiful b/w, my compliments.

Warm regards
Michèle

Salut Javier,

Superbe eclairage, presque un tableau classique avec la lumiere venant du ciel qui eclaire le visage.
Tres bon cadrage avec ce qu il faut de details dans les ombres a droite du cadre pour equilibrer l ensemble.

Yves.

Y tanto que da otra atmósfera, parece una foto de Juliette Grecco, de los existencialistas parisinos del siglo pasado... Caramba con el Xavis, se te ve de tarde en tarde, pero se te ve fotográficamente en forma. Enhorabuena.

Miguel
