Making Hay

amazing treatment and pov.love the soft and thin as a contrast in depth of color for the shadows.and the highlights are placed just so with a amazing touch!

Awesome shot!! Well done :)

Paul, this is a remarkable photo, excellent in every way!

Love the tones

We’ve heard about the heat wave down under. I sense that even though you’ve thrown cold tones all over this lady that, well, she’s still a tad hot? No… no.. perhaps the word is, sizzling?

Not sure, and that’s a problem in these cases, but around here we have a term for girls who wear this fashion… “jail bait”. I wonder how it translates into Australian? :-)

oh god the colours! I love it

fantastic acid treatment on this beautiful photo

wow Paul! you’re awesome!
love the way you used/controled the light. fantastic post work… and the base, composition, just amazing.
well done :)

That quicksilver skin is amazing. Beautifully done. A

lovely glowing skin….nice work mr v

such a fantastic piece Paul ( and Jo )

love the composition and colour treatment….

Stunning work Paul, love this

Your finish is divine…...gorgeous image….tones are very special….and wonderful pov….

Great image Paul.
A bit risky shooting Jo in the recent heat, wasn’t it?
Your gear (and the hay) may have caught fire! LOL

Truely Fabulous! Love the effect.

Beautiful portrait of a beautiufl woman. Nicely done :)

How interesting Paul love the finish , this is a stunning capture of Jo it may be her best I think. wonderful work from both of you.

Gorgeous tones…such a beautiful portrait

very beautiful!!!

Always loved barns Paul.. You do make the mind spin…
Chuck..

Beautiful Model and great edit!

Beautiful portrait!

I love the glow on her skin, not to mention the blue-ish tones. At first, I somehow expected her to be in water, but the grass works better by adding strangeness to the photo - which you know I love :)

beautiful finish.

Beautiful image!

Beautiful work Paul

Love the treatment Paul! Jo, you’re a beautiful woman….Grrrrr!! ;o)

Sexy, Sensual, and Exquisite! I adore the treatment Paul! Jo Youre Beautiful!!!

Beautiful shot. Love the blue tonings

really cool treatment . great shot

Very nice composition. The treatment is great.

excellent shot, lighting and treatment.

So ethereal…

super wonderful .

Beautiful Paul…..............your treatment is unique and your POV raises this to a level well above the usual Pin Up style images we see.

so cool how everyone comes out of the woodwork when the boss is in town

brilliant work

so cold… and so, so cool

Great composition and post production. Great feel to this.

I love it when you upload – always such a visual treat!!

Jo is just about as talented as you Paul…Great shot ….love the post processing….this shot works for me

gorgeous!!!!

all i can say is WOW
also… cause i can never leave it at that! Sooooo freakin brilliant and by brilliant I mean HOT!!!
:)

Really interesting processing, great shot!

nice work if you can get it : )))

classically managed style Paul, Jo looks Hot in this…your brilliant processing makes her model for your medium!

I love Jo’s pose, it’s full of “So what!” attitude and your PoV has emphasised this so well. The pale aqua tint has made the higlights seem like a metallic bodysuit. The hay is a wonderful contrast to the smooth, silky texture of Jo’s skin. Wonderful work by of you.

As Always you have done the subject justice, love the cool tones x

a very nice blend of tones, colour and light and it all works very well, a very apt title too Paul!

Jo looks so radiant, you must be so pleased with the outcome….both of you

Following a prolonged period of huffing and puffing the big bad wolf slunk off looking for a house of sticks to blow down. This worked well for Jo ‘Da Fox’ O’Brien who was keen to get in Paul ‘The Van Man’ Vanzella’s good books once again.
Step one was simple, threaten Paul with violence in a way that would make the timid graphic artist do what she demanded!
Step two a bit trickier here, get a acme freezer unit and stand inside at minus 20 for fifteen to twenty minutes to get that cyan/hypothermia tinge to her skin.
Step three nigh on impossible, stop shivering long enough to get one blur free shot in the bag.

Still achieving all this was just about possible and yet another step on the path to complete domination of the bubble!

“Oh yes! soon the Bubble would be mine she” thought as the shutter clattered and the lights flashed. an evil sneer crossed her face. “Yes thats it Mistress, hold that expression” squeeked Paul very aware that it wasn’t just his bulb attachment that would be crushed if Jo didn’t get what Jo wanted.

very nice

i love the treatment and her pose, however her expression is awkward and ruins the photo for me.

great effect paul.

Fantastic tones Paul !

Stunning shot Paul, beautifully composed, great composition, love the silver tones …

Gid tae see yi Paul, whor hae yi bin hidin?
(Now you try reading that aloud in your best Scots accent – hehehe)

your post production is like none other Paul

LMOA over Andrew Walker’s insightful comment…...... I know how much you love a good ‘dominating’ friend…........... : )) Jo did a wonderful job gettin you scared enough to take that fantastic shot mate…...... no camera shake either….. lol…........... Well done you two…..........

Wow, what a beautiful beautiful image, Paul! This hasn’t shown up in my activities monitor at all! Jo looks great, your treatment is gorgeous, and the dynamic framing works so well!

hehe at Andrew’s take on things…..what a fab story-teller he is!

oh…just brilliant use of tones and colour…and jo looks devine

lovely work

great piece of work…

really lovely. Jo looks beautiful, so raw and the expression is really natural. I really like it.

Great work Paul, as usual. Amazing “high definition” treatment – looks quite surreal. (And you KNOW I like that!)

so silver and sexy! great textures, and the tiniest shorts I have ever seen!! hehe I love that bit on her tummy just above the shorts on the left.
Hot photo, nature and textural sex, what you do so well!

wow Paul a wonderful shot and I love the treatment here well done and jo is a stunner

gorgeous all around!

awesome lighting… love the color treatment. very sexy lady.

just fabulous tones, you got it going
