Encounters in the dark forest

… or better: When an angel arrived… guided by the warm golden Light of heaven, touching the ground, spreading the wings. Preporing her clothes for the upcoming tasks. Whatever that will be. Even the wild wolf is standing still, looking, Will the wolf be the new companion of the angel ?? Who knows …

Ground effect

… or better the mirror effect. Put her onto the ground and let her look into a beautiful mirror. Not a small one but a large old mirror and let her play facial expression. And ask her for eye contact via the mirror. That is your moment to take pictures. If you can, avoid flash light, try using a simple reflector and watch the reflections thru the mirror. Have fun with that play…

EM-1 what else ??

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.

Down onto your knees and even lower. Use the articulated screen of your camera or look thru the plugin-EVF tilted upwards and discover the world of macro. See it. See them, those little insects crawling on the bloom. The highwaymen :) Ah, you should use your macro lens as well.

Still sitting on the wooden ground, still wrapped with veils, silky fabrics, still moving around to find comfortable and attractive positions :) And suddenly she sits there, a bit upright, head lowered and said “I can´t find attractive positions …!” “Oh, my dear that is an attractive and relaxed position”, was in my mind and i made the picture.

Having that said loud, she laughed out loud, leaned back a bit and got another relaxed and attractive position. I had no other chance, it was a “Must make Picture”

Act of creation

The Maker, the act of creation is such a fantastic moment. I nearly forgot to make the pictures while watching the complete act of creation. Digging the hole with traditional tool, taking the young tree with his young roots, putting it into the fresh and wet earth. You can smell the earth with its so special flavor, covering the young trees roots with such smelling loamy ground, gently touching it. And at last a bit of fresh water. It will grow, i am sure. It will grow up, showing his natural pride. It will be a wonderful new tree. This is the act of creation, me the witness of a divine moment.

Passion

This one at last. It shows how intense the fight was. How much passion and power both fighters brought to the ground. Crossing blades, sparkles around them. But only one can be the winner. You already know the outcome. Enjoy
