The Siren Waits...

I shot this last week down in Florida with the very lovely Wendy Hanks as model… Sometimes you work with a model who is so perfect that nearly every picture is a “keeper” – Wendy was such a model and I hope that (despite our geographical distance) her and I work together again soon…

i like the lighting in this one, but i think there are too many pillars on the left.

Thanks Vonne – this was a wonderful location in Winter Park Forida and aside from a texture layer – the photo is untouched!

Happy 2009 to you ma’am!

So Athenian! I really love the feel of this one….a cross between fear and nervous anticipation.
Brilliant!
Thomas Dodd replied

Thanks Gypsy – she was fantastic at the expressions – all I had to do was set the shot up – wait for the sun to move into place and click my shutter!

Thomas, I see hints of Maxfield Parrish in this, as well as in The Fountain. I loved his compositions and always felt something magical in his use of color. You should shoot in Florida (with Wendy) more often.
Thomas Dodd replied

BINGO Ginny – I was deliberately going for that look – I even sent the model some links to Parrish’s work to use as a reference

Good eye (and knowledge of Art History!) ma’am!
