I love the glow (obviously)
But also how she's looking down, almost with a look of pity and wonder on her face

I love her hair.. I want to touch it.. et: (not that I randomly touch people's hair... sweaters maybe, but not hair!)

she looks like she's looking into a magical mystical pool of light to see what's up with someone she misses. Like Belle looking into the mirror to see the Beast. I wanna watch Disney now...mmmm...Disney..

Beautiful as always is the lovely ^ hesitation . You just can't go wrong using her as a model. Lucky you I suppose.

I love the framing of this shot. It's up close and personal and really captures her tenderness. Her pose is lovely and I get the feeling she's deep in thought, which is sort of peaceful. Another thing I noticed right away is her eyes. For some reason they seem to demand more attention than anything else. I don't know if it's the soft reflection of them or her very detailed eyelashes, but I love it.

As far as the lighting goes, I really like how she does seem to glow in the light (obvious from the title). At the same time, I wonder if you should've captured more skin tones rather than showing her in a pale white light. I suppose that was your call, but I wonder if this would look better if I saw her true flesh color.

Great work, great subject, and wonderful lighting regardless. Keep the hesi shots coming!

I have never seen hesitation before this shot, and wow.
Anyway, to the photo.
I really like the concentrated look on her face, that warm glow you just get from this.
And the lighting from the softbox is realy sensitive, soft silky on her face.

Nicely done.

Beautiful portrait ...

How did you get that angle? Was the camera angled at all or did she lean over the softbox?

superkev In reply to rmpaul [2004-04-07 04:26:20 +0000 UTC]

softbox was on the floor. she was leaning over it so that her hair would fall down like that.

I didn't even make the connection between the falling hair and leaning over the softbox.

Wicked composition. It's simple, with the single softbox lighting here. In a way one could see the light illuminating Alina, but here I totally see her coming out of the light, like an angel ... reinforced by the darkness surrounding her. It's definately not a 'negative' darkness though.

Very nicely done!

Could you possibly give me a brief overview of you lighting set up for this, i.e. the rough positions and so on, it really does make her face glow beautifully!

superkev In reply to unicronwarrior [2004-04-05 13:12:09 +0000 UTC]

hi there! the lighting setup was very simple. it's just a softbox, on the ground, pointing upwards. hesi looked down into the softbox while i took the photo.

I've said it before, and I'm not afraid to say it again. Hesi is like, the most beautiful person on deviantART.

I really love the emotion shown in this, as Diny said - she looks like she's holding the love of her life, a child - a life!

Awsome!

truly a beauty to look upon......while shaking off the twitches and seizures.

This picture has such feeling, just like her expression. She seems as if she was holding a baby, loving and caring with that look in her eyes. Truly marvelous work
