+2

[Domingo A. Siliceo]

second one : "Salmacis"

I find this one a very good job and really sweet and nice. The light coming from back and up helps a lot in the final result, IMO.

I like this too, I remember me and the model starting climbing the mountains at 6:30 in the summertime, and looking for this spot were the light is spilling from the back for few minutes, so we had to hurry up and climbing. I used to shoot with my Arca F line, and a heavvy Bogen-Manfrotto 055 and the arca ballhead on it.

I used delta 100 film, and 180 Sironar-N. But those are only poor details...

thanks for all of you for appreciation.

Some colorslides of the Salmacis serie:

Salmacis in color, in the back of her there is a fall.

The blurring of the water tell the long exposure,
something beetween 1-4 seconds for those shots.
I appreciate a lot this marvellous still model!
