Tania

vera Thanks a lot Agnès! I find that Tania is a beautiful model , though the pic isn't very sharp... I had no time to make a better shot technically, I have to follow some tuto. But however I find this pic and the subject attractive 😘

vera Thank you Kateli! I saw you also made beautiful low keys! I think it demands a good lightening not easy to find...

Kateli Hi hi ! I got them as an Xmas present from my husband ! ;0)

vera Very good idea ! 😉

vera Thank you so much Craig! You're so positive and supportive! Thanks a lot!

vera Thank you so much Katrina! I discover how important is the lightening... I know it very well though, for painting it's the same! but I experiment this also with this portrait. The light can absolutely change an atmosphere and the emotion!

vera I don't exactly understand what you mean when you talk about a wet image?

Satoshi T I am not confident that 'nuance' can be conveyed to you... but
I try to write.
Dry: Even if there is a trouble, she do not worry long time, she will switch her mind and go next challenge.
Wet: She sometimes reminds fail of the past and crying.

vera Thank you , I understand better now... you're right! Tania has usually a dry image! She's a very dynamic woman and funny ! And this photo breaks a little bit this point of view... I saw here more as fatal woman. Perhaps it's due to the lightening and her look at this moment! I liked this mystery expression that showed something deeper! But I'm not sure that @tania (or somebody else?) recognizes something of herself in this...? Interesting to know! 😀 I conclude that a portrait can show the character of a person, without it being necessarily real ...
