Back to the street - girls

Chatting, laughing, gossiping, giggling - it's fun to shoot a group of women talking - they often looks so animated!



At a street concert I noticed three friends enjoying the performance. I did several shoots of them, at different moments of their interaction.



Again, as before, the unsaturated finish enhances their expressions and draws our eyes to their personality rather than distract us with bright colours..

Perception of self

You might agree - the desire to photograph comes to us more often than the availability of potential models. So, when this happens, we test it on ourselves. at least I do.


And, of course, the endless curiosity! of how we appear to other people, how others see us. I believe self-portraiture can be quite theraputic, as if we have a chance to look inside ourselves, see how our feelings translate when they come out on the surface.

Also, I am becoming very fond of unsaturated images, on the verge of black and white, but not quite (like the one in the middle). Their subtlety and 'understatedness' really appeals to me - I find it more expressive than bold and bright colours - or, at least, when applied to portraiture... What do you think?
