Description Entry for the Diversity competition by , which I learned about from

My favourite artist's model, the super-talented and lovely Maro, and an equally though differently gifted guitar man, both in Dele Sosimi's afrobeat band Gbedu.

After having seen your photobucket album, now your gallery seems a lot more familiar to me...
Esp. this pic is very nice... Relates more to your style of photography... you have a nice style... like you take nice shots with good color and lighting, as we spoke.

When did this one slip in? So much for the watch system...
great shot, I actually like the guitarist mostly due to the compression modeling he appears to be painted.

Cool.

Oh you mean the way its tonally too similar to the shadow on the man's shirt and so dissolving into it?


And thanks.

Yamenja In reply to thermalraven [2007-07-06 12:20:42 +0000 UTC]

ahem, correction:

the subtle merging of the woman's arm with the man's torso, by means of painstaking colour correction and blending is a semiological reference to the overall theme of diversity, wherein the two ethnically and physically separated figures are, on a more subtle level, becoming conjoined, in an esoteric sense, by the music they share. Hence the interplay of tone and colour becomes an iconographic indicator of a symbolic venn diagram simultaneously encompassing, whilst also emphasising, differences that both maintain separation and create union.
