Just had a look trough your gallery, and I have to say it's quite impressive

It's a very original gallery, filled with ideas I've never seen illustrated before. You've a great mind for thinking out ideas for photography, that's to be told (:

Keep up the great work.

And concerning this picture: Very good work. I've never seen such an idea before; the rougness evoked by a motorcycle helmet, and the softness evoked by a summer-dress, subtly fitting together.. Great work

You're very welcome (:

I've always liked interpreting the special pictures I see - yours being among those special ones. And people seem to enjoy detailed comments interpreting their creations, so... I try to make people happy

Did I Watch you, btw? Geh, I never remember.

It' great!
i don't like very much the lighting (it's a flash, no?) but, what the hell, it's a favorite! (and i don't have many)

saturninus In reply to mindsecho [2006-01-15 09:44:38 +0000 UTC]

no, no flash (I don't use any), but I had to work on it afterwards to make it lighter, that is true.

thanks, anyway!

i love how you give a contemporary frame such a classically mythological context.

with a few elemental refinements, this can perfectly grace both a fashion and a sports magazine. good job!

peace.

le-pony [2005-07-09 10:29:00 +0000 UTC]

added to favourites. in my opinion, this one is your best shot so far. great work.
what i like about it is that the helmet is a contradiction to the traditional-style of her dress.

as someone already said: "That's quite high on the coolness factor actually..."

where did you get that supercool helmet from?

saturninus In reply to le-pony [2005-07-09 11:07:16 +0000 UTC]

Thanks, Monsieur Cheval.

The funny thing is that this was really a nearly-accidental photo session. I visited this friend of mine because she had twisted her ankle. We talked about numerous things then I asked her if I could take a few photos ofher (she is my usual model, in fact). She wasn't really in the mood, but then she agreed. Unfortunately I didn't have really much of a concept in mind, but just then, I discovered this helmet on the floor that belonged to her boyfriend. I had to beg to her to wear it..........

Thanks again.

Mary--jane [2005-06-18 12:23:43 +0000 UTC]

How odd.
I can almost see a smile under that helmet and I love it.
I love that she would hide her smile
because no one deserves to see it...
because she is more than special.

saturninus In reply to Mary--jane [2005-06-18 16:26:44 +0000 UTC]

Oh yes, she is special.
A goddess, you know.
Humble but powerful.
She is also responsible for the rainbow.

Thank you, sweet Sarah.

flowkradd [2005-06-16 03:30:40 +0000 UTC]

awesome work! I love the texture on the helmet and the simple clothing, however the ankle brace is unfortunate, but injury cannot be helped sometimes.
The bg however is a bit overpowering, moving the girl forward and using a bit shallower dof to make the texture of the wall unnoticed would really bring the focus more to the subject and create a stronger shot.

This is a great as is too though

saturninus In reply to flowkradd [2005-06-16 11:45:34 +0000 UTC]

You are perfectly right in many aspects......... except for the bandage, which was absolutely intentional.

Thank you for the very appropriate comment!

sorryi8yercat [2005-06-14 17:33:05 +0000 UTC]

This is A M A Z I N G. I love the neutral/warm background, the helmet, the unclear something pattern of the dress that kind of looks like it could be text if you wanted it to be, even though it's not, and whatever's going on with her feet. Only critique is that, I don't know, I'd expect a messenger to be more assertive than her pose says she is -- she looks more bashful and subdued. Very pretty, but not the in-your-face type to get across a message. Oh, and the shadow of her body against the wall -- I just noticed that. It's very beautiful. This is wonderful.

saturninus In reply to sorryi8yercat [2005-06-15 07:02:46 +0000 UTC]

Oh yes, you're right about the pose.... I must confess that I gave the title when correcting the image in PhotoShop, so the original concept was more vague, and I wasn't sure if I want to depict a goddess.
But a Messenger shouldn't be too assertive, I guess. (S)he has to be humble, since it is not him/her that is important but the message----

Thank you very much!!

Húha... hát ezt most én sem tudom innen megoldani.... azért azt is tudnod kell, hogy a DA a hatalmas leterheltség miatt sokszor csinál furcsa dolgokat. Főleg hétvégén gyengélkedik, de egyébként is előfordul, hogy ilyen misztikus eltüntető hadműveletekre ragadtatja magát.

De aztán általában megjavul, és ami elveszett, az meg is lesz.... szóval türelem, de ha nem érkezik meg, csak üzenj, és elküldöm mégegyszer.

Nagyon örvendek a szerencsének!



Ha hozzászoksz, ez egy nagyon jó hely. Sokkal jobb, mint a hazai "állóvizek".
Persze az igénytelen szemét is sokkal több, de minőség és nyitottság tekintetében sokszor "zongorázni lehet a különbséget"...

Majd küldök egy "Note"-ot, amit egy-két hónapja chryztoph-nak is elküldtem, hogy mi hogy működik errefelé....
