The modern Bedouin girl

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 …

Silent smile

“Give me a silent smile, a smile with a serious touch, no open mouth…” And now see, what she did with that instruction. A close and intense view, her scarf well arranged. A picture we love.

… no game …

No, its no game. I asked her to be dangerous looking, aggressiveness in her face, a bit surreal and spooky as well. Okay, so she painted a black ribbon over her eyes with some black color from her make up box. Wild and a bit uncontrolled, like a warrior. Her smiling face turned into “aggressive” mode while her body followed with a strong tension. That was exactly what i wanted to see. So i took my picture. In post processing it was easy to intensive the look a bit. Levels und curves and an overlay texture was all i needed. So enjoy

Rider

I thought back, i remembered long forgotten times. And suddenly it came back to my mind: The Palio ! What an event. A horserace, a rough one, on a rough ground, with strong and fast horses and even more stronger and faster riders. All of them so proud and sure to be the winner. We know, it can be only one !

And he was not the winner. His horse arrived way before him. But is was fun and such a great fight. Here you can see him and his furious black horse. Proud and full of power.

Princess on vacation

Yes, she is the little princess. Look how she enjoys the high position :) Now she is the princess, she has the power. What a little gem she is. But her behavior is more rude. Just about 2.5 KG in weight she thinks being a Pitbull in protecting her territory and her family. No fear but fast and full of power. It is a always a surprise when she, detecting an alien dog, flying against them so blazing fast you can only see some white streaks and her white little teeth. Its like a black lightning :) And she never failed…. not yet
