A portrait in palladium of Miho from 2002. I never printed this because the density range of the original 8 x 10 negative was not ideal for palladium, and there was a shaft of sunlight on floor in the background that was overpowering. So, photoshop fixes and inkjet negative works.
Interesting pose, seems stuck between being relaxed and awkward. Her face to me works better cropped from shoulder up. Her eyes are unbalanced but intriguing.
My naive perspective.
Thank you for your comments. And @awty – Miho came to my studio with Eva another woman who posed for me. I did not know anything about Miho. After introductions, Eva went in to a corner and began undressing and Miho did the same. She then wrapped herself up in that robe. So the first picture I took of her was this one. She sat down, and I thought she looked great just like that. She may have been a little uneasy, but it didn't last long. I seldom crop my 8 x 10 negatives. But I will post one in a day or two that is a crop.
@macfred Thanks. I agree, she had a very elegant, graceful quality about her. If you look back a ways in my gallery there is picture of her and Eva that I really like. Very close and personal, considering it was with an 8 x 10 view camera.
