Quelle douceur dans ce moment privilégié de dernier ajustement de la toilette ! Et, quelle pureté en même temps dans le cadrage de cette photo ! Cela rejoint le regard,la capture ,des grands maitres tels Ingres, Delacroix etc.

La subtilité de tes photos est parfaite pour rendre hommage à ce moment fugitif de satisfaction que l'on imagine très grande : l'illusion est parfaite, son but est atteint, elle est femme et belle, coiffée par son amie et photographiée par quelqu'un qui veut montrer son humanité et sa beauté.
... Jusqu'à ce qu'elle passe le pas de la porte et se heurte au regard et au jugement des autres et aux mille et unes difficultés pour survivre...
Dommage que les instantanés ne soient que ça, dans son cas.

Le choix du blanc pour ce sari, a un coté "virginal" et pur, qui rend cette femme émouvante. La position de sa main n'est pas anodine, non plus, elle veut séduire et y parvient ! c'est une très belle série de photos, et celle-ci me plait particulièrement ! de belles femmes, de belles personnes ! de belles âmes !
