retrato intenso y penetrante
el corte descentrado aumenta la fuerte sensación
qué regalan sus ojos penetrantes
no fácil fotografiar a los niños
tú has hecho una joya en B/W 7 +++

Merry Christmas.
Beautiful shot.


Justin Schaller   {K:3781} 12/25/2004
I am glad I viewed the second page of images in the photo-critique section, for if I had not, I would have passed this wonderful portrait right by.

This is fantastic Carina, you have captured the true essence of this character without stressing your technique. In terms of composition, your image is strangely flawless. I think one of things that sets a photographer apart from a photographic artist is this. You create such a feeling of depth in this image, I want to be a part of it, and that is not an easy thing to achieve.

On a more critical note, there is one tiny thing which does distract me - the minute strand of hair below your subjects' right eye. Other than this, I love this, it draws my attention with a pair of incredible eyes, and keeps my attention with fantastic photography.

Well done,
- Justin

Merry Christmas


Antonio Trincone   {K:23167} 12/25/2004
great contrast for the eyes and for the overall shot, I like this BW for the pose too


Bradley Prue   {K:30285} 12/25/2004
Rich detail to be found everywhere, here. But my attention keeps coming back to her eyes....you captured her mesmerizing gaze perfectly! Happy Holidays, Carina! ..Brad

ISMAEL MARCOS   {K:10340} 6/8/2005
sorry carina,
THAT IS WAHAT I FELT WHEN I SAW IT
BUT YOU MUSN'T THINK NOTHING BAD, MUST YOU?

PICS HAVE NO AGE.
REGARDS.
ISMAEL


Carina Berlingeri   {K:317} 6/9/2005
Ismael,
"BUT YOU MUSN'T THINK NOTHING BAD"

What I think is that children for me are seen as beautiful,expressive, etc. but "sensual" or "veryyyyyyyyyyy sensual" as you wrote , is an expression i could use only for an adult because it has to do with "sexual expression" , or look it up in a diccionary..


Angelo Villaschi   {K:49617} 6/9/2005
Pictures may have no age.

The subject of this picture does. It's an eleven year old girl. Not even a teenager yet.

This is very dangerous and dodgy ground, to find it "sensual", defined as:

a. Of, relating to, given to, or providing gratification of the physical and especially the sexual appetites.

b. Suggesting sexuality; voluptuous.

c. Physical rather than spiritual or intellectual.

d. Lacking in moral or spiritual interests; worldly.

Just suggesting word choices are very important.


Alison Stroebel   {K:4069} 6/9/2005
I must say I do not find this look sensual and agree with peoples comments on children being sensual. Perhaps it is not used in the ture meaning of the word. I have commented on another image on US and said the model had an innocently sensual look. I don't think saying a child has a sensual expression immediatly implies the person commenting has a sexual feeling towards her. I meant it as defining an expression. I would be so sorry if someone misunderstood it and I would hope the other person who commented on this picture feels the same. Maybe english not a first language? Anway I love this capture. Very direct gaze right into the camera. Great stuff.


Angelo Villaschi   {K:49617} 6/9/2005
Sorry... forgot to say I like this portrait, great composition, eye contact is nice and the expression on her face is very strong.

:)


ISMAEL MARCOS   {K:10340} 6/9/2005
SORRY
TAKE ALOOK AT SALLY'S MAN PHOTOS

ISMAEL


ISMAEL MARCOS   {K:10340} 6/9/2005
SORRY AGAIN I CAN'T SAY NOTHING MORE

YES I'M TERRIBLY SORRY

YOY CAN READ LOLITA BY NABOKOV OR TAKE A LOOK AT SALLY'S MAN PHOTOS.

SORRY AGAIN.

GOODBYE.
ISMAEL


Angelo Villaschi   {K:49617} 6/9/2005
Ismael,

If you were msunderstood and wish to apologise, fine. There's no need really. It's just a conversation and a comment. End of story.

However, I fail to see what Sally's (who?!) "man photos" have got to do with it.

As for your reference to Nabokov's Lolita... that IS worrying! Perhaps you are misunderstood again???


Carina Berlingeri   {K:317} 6/10/2005
Hello Angelo, tudo bom? :)

"Sally Mann", you can have a look here, you don?t know her?
http://www.art-forum.org/z_Mann/gallery.htm

I also love her work, showing kids (her own three children)in a very natural and relaxed way...

va saber o que passa pela cabeça do pessoal, tem cada louco.. :))


ISMAEL MARCOS   {K:10340} 6/10/2005
COMO DECIMOS POR AQUÍ "PUES VA SER QUE SÍ". CREO QUE SOY UN INCOMPRENDIDO Y ES MÁS, USTEDES UNOS "PURITANOS" VEN PECADO DONDE NO HAY MÁS QUE BELLEZA.
LA FOTO DE LA CHICA EN CUSTIÓN HERMOSA Y BELLA PODRÍA SER DE UNA CHICA DE HASTA 20 AÑOS...JAMÁS ENTENDÍ QUE FUERA MENOR NI NADA POR EL ESTILO.
MI CONCIENCIA Y MIS OPINIONES Y SENTIMIENTOS SIGUEN INTACTOS. SÓLAMENTE PECA EL QUE VE PECADO EN ELLO.
CREO QUE USTEDES ADOLECEN BASTANTE DE LA HISTORIA DEL ARTE...EL UNIVERSO ARTÍSTICO NO CONOCE ESE TIPO DE CONSIDERACIONES TAN PUERILES.
SALLY MAN ( FOTÓGRAFA ESTADOUNIDENSE ) Y NABOKOV ESTÁN FUERA DE LAS CONSIDERACIONES PERSONALES Y FORMAN PARTE DEL UNIVERSO ARTÍSTICO MUNDIAL.
SI USTED/ES NO LO ENTIENDEN NO ES MI PROBLEMA...NO LE GUSTAN LAS MISMAS COSAS A TODAS LAS PERSONAS PERO LO QUE ES INNEGABLE ES QUE USTED O YO NUNCA ENTRAREMOS EN NINGÚN MUSEO DE FOTOGRAFÍA NI SEREMOS ESTUDIADOS EN LOS LIBROS DE TEXTO DE NUESTROS NIETOS.

POR ÚLTIMO INDICARLE QUE ELMOTIVO DE ESCRIBIR EN ESPAÑOL, MI LENGUA MATERNA, ES OBVIA...SÓLO SE EXPLICA UNO PERFECTAMENTE EN SU PROPIO IDIOMA.

ATENTAMENTE.

ISMAEL.


Leora Long   {K:9418} 6/10/2005
In my favorites. Great communication. Not exploitive at all, so what is all this controversy?

Beautiful use of digital for BW. Has exquisite film quality. Would print like fine art on Epson Velvet Fine archival paper. We have just discovered it and are amazed.


Stefan Rohner   {K:4200} 6/10/2005
veryyyyyyyyyyy sensual.

Angelo gave you a very good explanation....

Y mi pregunta, que tiene que ver sally man o nabokov, con tu commentario o la photo?

te lo digo yo....... nada!


Stefan Rohner   {K:4200} 6/10/2005
Would print like fine art on Epson Velvet Fine archival paper. We have just discovered it and are amazed.

Yes, maybe, if you don?t know fiberpaper.....


Stefan Rohner   {K:4200} 6/10/2005
your crop, crops it down to nothing.... the arms and chair are giving depth....


Carina Berlingeri   {K:317} 6/10/2005
ISMAEL,
Si quieres ser comprendido tienes que saber expressar te mejor, esto aqui es un forum de discussion fotografica donde nos comunicamos por escrito... yo solo he cojido lo que has escrito y te he hecho una pregunta , no te he juzgado

... conozco y me gusta Sally Mann, tambien el Jock Sturges por exemplo... No soy puritana , pero no me parece sano si algien ve a un niño como "sensual" como tu havias dicho, pero ahora me has aclarado, tu pensavas que la chica tenia 20 años... para mi está bien, tenia que decir lo que pensava sobre tu comentário solo eso..


ISMAEL MARCOS   {K:10340} 6/10/2005
MY ENGLISH IS BAD, MY IDEAS NOT

REGARDS AND ANOTHER TIME .... SORRY
YOU'VE MADE A GREAT PORTRAIT.
ISMAEL.


ISMAEL MARCOS   {K:10340} 6/10/2005
PUES............ TÚ MISMO.

ISMEL.


Carina Berlingeri   {K:317} 6/10/2005
Obrigada Angelo .... :)


Leora Long   {K:9418} 6/10/2005
Yes, Stefan, my friend. Thanks for your tribute to fiber. I, too, am familiar with fiber papers (Kodak, Ilford, etc).

I printed for years in my own darkroom anywhere from 35mm to 8x10 negatives for my clients, so no one likes going in the darkroom better than I.

But the computer is the darkroom of the future - currently I am quite please with my 2200 - but soon there will be the Epson 2400, providing superior results for Black and White printing.

By the way, I guess you did not realize that Epson Velvet Fine is actually fiber paper, - 100% rag, which is why we were so happy to find it.

Just a friendly recommendation to Carina from someone who appreciates both film and digital.

...Leora


Stefan Rohner   {K:4200} 6/10/2005
http://www.usefilm.com/image/605908.html

this one must look great on fiber paper, do your digital prints on "Epson Velvet Fine".......

I stay with real "baryt" fiber...... when I see good results at your pics maybe I will change...

best Stefan


Angelo Villaschi   {K:49617} 6/19/2005
Só recebi notificação desse comentário agora. Acho que só agora estão revendo e liberando comentários com links...

Não conhecia Sally Mann, mas agora vou dar uma olhada. Obrigado.

E desculpas por ter tornado sua foto em um debate interminável...


Dina Marie   {K:9657} 9/7/2005
gorgeous!


Hamed Noori   {K:7409} 9/8/2005
A very nice portrait . i like it ...


Pankaj Arora   {K:3752} 9/12/2005
Hi!

Excellent portrait, The "i dare you" look on the face, the unkempt hair, the skin tones and the texture of the fabric of her shirt, everything works in sync to establish teh character of the girl !A single light source has worked out well in this intimate portraiture!

regards
Pankaj


kouichi     {K:-640} 11/8/2005
wonderful composition.
forceful eyes!


Dina Marie   {K:9657} 3/16/2006
