great shot. Has a surrealistic almost dreamy feel to it. It's interesting how the girl on the lower part of the shot seems so much more alive as a result of the eye contact with the camera.

Beautiful shot!

rickpawl says:

Oh Carmen! It takes my breath! Their faces, like masks almost, their eyes one pair at the camera, the others going a different way, but both hypnotizing and oh so beautiful. Amazing image you all have made.
I have been gone too long from here. : )

Dave Ward Photography says:

Beautiful. It has a look that is both haunting and joyful at the same time -- a very unusual pairing of feelings.

smiling_da_vinci says:

Als je deze 90 graden naar links draait wordt deze foto nog boeiender. Het contrast van Nalinle die je aankijkt en het andere meisje dat wegkijkt is dan nog sterker.

◄fabio► says:

The top one (don't know the name!) has a face that's incredible really! It's perfect. And what about her eyes? ... amazing. I would keep on staring at her!

Oh, sorry Carmen, I was supposed to comment on the picture and NOT on the models! But she hypnotizes me....
the flowing hair is incredible, but allow me a question: did you soften / smoothened the water and surroundings of the girls or it came out like that? It's not a critic, I like it!

You're so fortunate to have such pretty friends to pose for you. I love how the hair looks like it's floating or flying when under water. Nalinle has a wonderful smile here.

The soft hazing treatment gives them a mythological water Sprite or Nymph status in this image.

Firefalcon says:

Beautifully done Solea, I love the gentle sort of symmetry about it.

Only one negative aspect for me is that I find the waterline around the lower model's hair and face a bit distracting, but despite that I still love it.
Posted 23 months ago. ( permalink )

chiruzita says:

The idea was taken from "American Next Top Model", right?
Posted 23 months ago. ( permalink )

soleá says:

yeah i was inspired by that.. but also by other photographs in the water... like that photographer from ANTM probably was too...
