Not long after we got started on this shoot, this rock fisherman who had been fishing just out of camera view walks past. It appeared that we had disturbed his rhythm and he was leaving.

I said "We aren't bothering you are we?"

To which I got a laugh. He said he thought he was bothering us! Strange days... :giggle:

This is beautiful Maria Eriksson [link] from the UK.

Please show respect to Maria in your comments.

Scott :)

Critique by *TheHarlequinsMask Oct 24, 2009, 7:20:46 PM
It's funny, but even as I looked at the thumbnail, I thought, "There's gotta be a story to this one..." I was right!

The composition worked really well mate, and the contrast of the rocks and the sky is great. I like how the position of the fisherman seems to balance the position of the model so well. The small pool is wonderfully clear, and gives the impresion that the model is standing on the water. Nicely done indeed. The skintones of the model compliment the rocks very well.

I like how you've coped so well with what was obviously very direct and harsh light too. My compliments.

The shot tells a story for me, and works really well.
What do you think?

it's such a beautiful spot... but such a stiff pose.

Thanks, yes this was about the 3rd shot of the day, just a lighting/exposure test shot in the harsh sunlight prior to Maria posing properly :)

The fisherman makes this photo for me. Without, it's just another photo of another nude girl.

The fisherman contrasts with the girl, and provides a story for the photo.
