A series in honor of all the women on this forum and in the whole world to thank them for their nice and fantastic contribution to the world of photography.

In this series I will try to illustrate some of the feelings from women and each time I try to give the reflection from that feeling in a picture of material. All the pictures of the woman were taken at 1600 ISO and the other pictures at 320 ISO. I hope you enjoy it (and the men to).

PLEASE PUSH THE ARROW for the following picture!

Dirk, you're good. What can I say!!

P.S. Sometimes I forget. "What can I say" is a kind of expression when the work is so good nothing much needs saying about it. Sorry if I use to many English/American-isms. Of course, as good as your English is you're probably aware of the expression.

Dirk:

I enjoyed your series on women very much. In "Tender" and especially in "Mirror Error" your work has a David Hamilton quality about it (comparing it to his early work in the 60's, before he became a highly copied cliche) which I find very arresting.

Thanks for the artful interlude.

All the images were beautuful, but the one that caught my eye the most was "virgin" . Maybe its just the old carpenter in me, but the lighting was so strong, and yet detail was maintained in the stairs, and the handrail. I also agree with the David Hamilton reference, but I remenber him using more grain and muted colors. But the feeling is there.

Dear Jarrell,

Thank you for the few very kind words and thanks for your kind explanation of the meaning about these words. The only thing I disagree with is that my English is so good, I think it's better then in the beginning, as I'm trying to enhance it with being regularly on this forum.

With very kind regards,

Dirk,
Your English really is very good... I can read it and understand it fine.

I know that it isn't the same as someone who's language is English... but how many of us can speak/write in (are you from Netherlands, Belgium or Denmark?).

Anyway, don't under estimate your ability... or the benefit you have of being in Europe where you have to learn extra languages.

Yours sincerely,
Michael Offe,

Dear Lawprofkk,

I'm glad that you enjoyed them that much. Oh it's a long time ago that I heard from David Hamilton, but if my memories are good I thought that they where more blurred I think. But thanks for the very kind compliments and comment.

With very kind regards,

Dirk Vermeirre

Hi W Redmond,

I really appreciate your very nice comments. Yeah I liked that handrail also very much, I never could make that myself so I have to stay by a picture from it. I thougt that D.Hamilton images were more blurred as I can remember me (it's a long time ago).

With very kind regards,

Dirk Vermeirre
 
Dirk, (as usual) they're great.

You're a much better photographer than you were a football coach:)

Hi Dennis,

Thanks a lot but I'm afraid that I can't understand the relation, is that an English expression ? I see nothing that refers to football here, I'm afraid I'm missing the point (I'm not very used to English as it is my third language).

With kind regards,

Dirk Vermeirre
 
The reference (it's a pun) is to **** Vermiel, who is an NFL coach in the US (took the Philadelphia Eagles to the Superbowl, won the Superbowl coaching the St. Louis Rams)

Hi Dennis,

Thanks for the explanation, very funny, I never heard of this guy but it makes your comment even grater, thanks a lot.

Hi Dirk -

The explanation didn't come from Dennis; I guess he wanted to leave you guessing, which didn't seem fair to me.
