Gives me 'the ring' fibres brrrr
great work, you could bring a little more contrast to the pic to get the dress more white, but it's just great work!

Great photo Rew,
well done, cheers.
Brad

Hi Rew

Excellent!! Another great shot. Just that hint of mystery....

my goodness! What you do put your models through! But the result is superb: almost ghostlike and very mysterious. The misted light on her shoulders is superb. TFS
Silke

Rew,

if you are trying to achieved the Ghostly effect, i think you achieved 99% only 1 percent for the ghost wearing a red slippery. Composition, lighting, the catching of the fog are superbly done. She seems not relaxs of the situation she seem very stiff. ( para syang naninigas).

Hi Rew.

Stunning capture......once i was lost and then i was found, welldone.

Stv

Hi Rew,
Perfect picture. Very good, soft lights and soft colours. Well done.
Regards.

hAyAti

Very well done Rew, I like it

This one works very well, The idea could be used to create many moods.
Well captured with the mist.

Hello Rew,

This picture reminds me of Sadako, the character in the Japanese horror movie entitled "The Ring". :) Very creepy!

But I like how you composed the shot. The position of the subject is perfect, relative to the way she is facing in the frame. Her bowed head negates the space to the right of the picture, because the imaginary line of sight perfectly dissects the image diagonally. :) Hope I make sense! hahaha!

Regards,

Pierre

rew, this gives me goosebumps again. i had nightmares by watching all the japanese versions of "the ring" alone at night. well composed and full of mood. that slipper is quite off yes, but the situation at hand might be avoided when the setup was well prepared. :) tfs tito!

Hi Rew,
Another great expossure here. But why bend down ??

Hi Rew, Good portrait of this model in a creative setting and attitude. Good to see this variety. Murray.

Nice mood picture, Rew. Good series so far. White on white is very hard, whether it is in painting or photography.
Cheers
Otto

Beautiful and very mysterious shot, Rew. Absolutely stunning.

Marleen

Very nice continuation of your series, Rew. Nicely composed and good use of the fog to create a very moody picture. Well done!

P.S. I hope your model did not get too cold!

Hi Rew. Greetings from the U.K. Wonderful atmospheric shot. At the same time as it has a pleasent sensual dreamy quality it could also be highly disturbing. What has she just done with her Husbands body, is it in the Lake? Now I have goose bumps. Great work my friend.

Regards Phil

Sadako?

hahaha... isnt ir too cold? for such a dress?

anyway, great effect! kelan ka uwe pinas? magparamdam ka. para kita kits.

Cheers!

Interesting shot the fog adds a scarry effect.I have not watch "Sadako" but i can imagine it.Btw I admire your model dress like that in a cold morning say about -5 degrees.TFS.
Mel

PS: Bro where do you hide in Pinas i think we will be there by that date in Baguio.

Dear Rew,
it really looks nice composition model and foggy background.
I liked your cropping.
Thanks you for sharing with us.

I see so many references to Sadako and the Ring. IMO, this much more resembles me the Emily Rose character, as the setting is entirely different - the white nighty and the pleasant fogue are rather more angelic instead of drama-threatening. As if she is about to meet Virgin Mary, just like in the final sequence of the movie. Ok, technicaly is imaculate (sic!) as the character position cuts through the smooth layering of the background. Great shot, best of the serie.

I really like these fog pictures of yours Rew. but this one is just a bit too tight on for the pose IMO. It's so creepy, but the lack of space detracts from this eerie mood.

(btw, I'm not sure if your model is Filipino or not, she's prob Maori since you're in New Zealand, but this series reminds me of the folktale of the "lady in white." A evil entity.]

Hi again,
In thisshot I like the static and the hidden tension. I think the fog adds to this impression
thanks for sharing!

Wonderful pictures!!!

Thanks for sharing..

Beste

hello rew,

its as if its mystical.
i like the composition
and the effect of the fog.

its actually hard to
bring out the plants
at the background
and i wonder how you did
it? I have a hard time doing it
without underexposing or overexposing
the subject.

wow!

raul

I like your mood here.
Good idea well executed.

TFS

Andre

to me the best among your 'dressed in white' - lovely, a bit melancholic mood..
greets - Tom

Very nice picture, i agree with silke, ghost like and mysterious. Well Done.

Tracey

Beautiful fog bath. I really like the way the background almost disappear.
An amazing shot!

What a lovely photo Rew. It gives me many views on this photo. First, beauty of the woman. Second, mistery. Great shot. Sothy

uuaoooou!! thats real?? buff, I never seen nothing similar, looks like a dream! its very misterius place and the girl is perfect were she is and she's style and pose. Explosion of sentiments. Incredible sensations.
About my pich, rew, its make with too pichers one of the girl, one of Alhambra's wood detail.

Hello Rew,
Your frost/fog-series already caught my attention some time ago, but I never found the time to leave a comment... I will surely repeat what others already said, but to me, the great quality of your photo is in the mood you created (enhanced by an obvious photographic skill - compo/colours): a mood of serenity and inner peace. Your model too perfectly knows how to convey this feel.
Congratulations & TFS,
Erik
