I really like the first one , the pose and the expression of both the subject and the background girl on the left ..... also the subject has the arm framing perfectly the jeans of another girl , that's make for a pleasant composition , together at the colors palette.
The two below are a bit of quiz ....

You always had an elegant way to photograph nude ... but now you are drawing a new path in this kind of art .

.... and she is happy we solved the rebus !
Of course I'm speaking from an artistic and conceptual point of view , my maximum respect to all .

Cheers , G.

Dear Janlu,

How nice to hear from you; I first thought it was an April's fool! ;-)

Thank you so much for your comments that I entirely agree with. That day, I had a very difficult situation. This year, the Ultra Music Festival took place along of a kind of highway where people had to queue to get in.

I was there in the beginning of the afternoon. So, you can imagine the Florida's strong sun at that time; more specially, as the way the whole situation was organized, most of my shots were taken against the sun!

For the Korean girl, I had the sun behind her and she was completely dark. I had to lighten her up in PP that caused that skin problem! In reality, she had a superb skin without any problem! lol ;-)

For the shot you mentioned last; as a rare situation, she was entirely in the sun. She was wearing a lime green outfit that looked really ugly in the picture. As I appreciated her posing kindly for me, I tried to post it in B/W. But still, some details were washed out!....

Besides the lighting situation, I had the wrong lens. Vario Elmar-T 55-135 is a fantastic zoom, but I needed more space on my APS-C camera for that. Therefore, framing became extremely hard for me. I did not even have enough room to get her entirely!

Last year, this event took place in town and it had a very happy and festival ambiance in a large space; which made me to take this wrong zoom instead of a wider angle.

I hope you and your family are well and your "Roman Life" is going on as beautifully as in the past. Last year, I made a fantastic family trip to Florence and Venice. I just loved it and miss every moment of that trip. I hope to be back one day! :-)

All the best,

Another nice set, Louis! This is from the chap who doesn't care about "Ultra" music (actually, your work shows well the class of the characters enjoying it) and waits when Vario-Elmar-T 11-23 becomes available to be purchased.

Alex, thank you very much. I think I am too old to care about this kind of events, but I like to hang around, out side, to should the people.

Yes, 11-23 is, indeed, an excellent lens but too wide for my type of photography. The widest I go is my 18-56. But the superb 55-135 is the one that I enjoy the most.
