The modern Bedouin girl

kweide — Sun, 01 Feb 2015 14:16:10 +0000

Just testing new equipment, a new parabola softbox, a new and fas lens. So i put two scarf together into the scene wrapped her in a quick and dirty way and took some snaps, varying the angel of shooting and the flash paramters to get an impression of the ligth rendering the new softbox will do.

And YES i am really satisfied with the results. Lens and softbox did a stunning job. Oh, yes, sorry, she did it it also …
Olympus E-M1 on stage again … as always

Blue thoughts

kweide — Sun, 11 Jan 2015 14:32:49 +0000

While shooting is running there are moments of silence. Moments were something is going on and you cannot name it for sure, but you can see it. Like in this picture

As if she is asking herself questions. Am i pretty ? Am i beautiful and attractive enough ? Does HE like it the way i move, the way i behave, the way i present me as a person ? Those are unspoken questions which cannot be answered by words. Only your behavior as photographer can do that. When you stop working, you answer “NO!” to all her question but doing even more pictures, addressing thru your mimic that she is fantastic, this way you will earn even more such blue thought moments.

Just like this above is a result of a positive photographers reaction. And she asked: “Really ? ” I gave her a smile instead of words…. That the way the emotional layer works.
All done again with Olympus E-M1 again

Serail … exciting adventure …

A serail, normally hidden from the eyes of any observer, can bring exciting views. Girls sitting around, bathing, smoking, Parfum is all around. And the girl as well. Looking at you, the photographer. So do what a man can do best: make your job and take pictures :)

Harems girl

kweide — Mon, 15 Sep 2014 06:10:27 +0000

She is a member of the Harem and she knows how to attack her masters view, his interest in her. So she is playing her game to get her chance and not always that damned Sheherazade… :)

Dance the night away

kweide — Tue, 09 Sep 2014 07:45:04 +0000

A stunning dance performance in the deep night, performed while a local party in the small village of Palma, Sicily. It was bad light, high speed dance movements but E-M1 caught the moments.

So trust your cam and try it yourself. You will be surprised of the result

See the Lord

And while arranging her veils, she lifted her head, seeing some soft light shining from above. And what she saw made her happy…

Just to give you an idea that a simple decision is sometimes not that easy to do. In this case the decision between color and/or BW version is open. Thats the reason for showing them both
Well, here the b&W version:

And here the color one

Both Olympus E-M1 + M.Zuiko 12-40, one single flash. And which one do you like best ??

Result

As a result she finally got her dress in a, lets say, sorted style. But it is still a very light costume and she is asking herself whether he will like ist ?? I believe, there is no man outside who does not. What di you think ?

After all

And after all is done, she he is already gone, she will wait for a while, starting to pick up this and that, rearranging her cloth, still feeling him. Happy for the time with him.
