hello (oculus, a new version of the image you commented on)

**Mallee Boy** · 03-10-2018, 05:46 PM

Great work, thanks for sharing.
edit: gotta say more than that. This is high quality work, congratulations. Very emotive, very strong/powerful images. I am not going to critique because you haven't asked for it.

Nice shots.......if she were to actually ride it would it be Squeals on Wheels?

I have not done a lot of this type of work, but enough to want to do more and to know that the model is the key. "Julie" is promising and when she truly relaxes into the role could be great. You can get the technical stuff right, but it is the model who sells the story.
Example: in the shot applying lipstick, face the mirror and avert the eyes only to the camera, add a look of mild annoyance at being disturbed and you have a genuine shot...imho...not a "posed"one. Minor detail I know, but often the difference between good and great is exactly that.
Look forward to seeing more of Julie.

If Julie ever needs someone to come and kick start her machine, I'm sure the old Kerrowdown would manage it some how.

Great images once again.

Si Julie a besoin de quelqu'un pour venir lancer sa machine, je suis sûr que le vieux Kerrowdown s'en chargera un peu.

De superbes images encore une fois.

Mate.....you & I would be like the dog chasing the car....god help us if we ever caught one !!

IMHO the second one is better. The pose on the first image isn't optimal - top of skirt folded ugly.

What's more worrying... is that you've worked that out before it happens, I wanted to be there scratching my head.

I do not understand all your comments. Too bad you do not speak French

**aslyfox** · 03-14-2018, 07:43 AM

it is hard to use a second language

you are doing a very good job

oculus · 03-14-2018, 07:47 AM

Yes, I think that crop works well. Excellent photography.

You must pay no mind to Kerrowdown. He is Casca to your Brutus.

DMITRY1 · 03-14-2018, 08:22 AM

Her face is out of focus, imho. But not the boots. Why did you choose 1/30 shutter speed?

no, the face is clean.
The images were made in a disused factory where the light is quite weak; I used a 1200 joules studio flash and a soft umbrella

Beyond the tragic brutus, the Roman Empire provoked "pax romana" in the Gaule, former name of France
