First picture from Consonno with Maria.

Giving up the quarry of Valcava for the cold weather, was a blessing in disguise, as far as I can see, because Consonno is a much more varied location, giving a lot more visual opportunities.
And, albeit we did less pictures during this last shooting (compared with the Asylum and the nudist beach), 911 frames are not exactly "few" at all!

Back to Maria, you have to know she loves art, but to understand exactly how much, you will have to see also the other 2 photos I will post today elsewhere, especially the one on DA Subscriptions!

Joking aside, Maria is an artist in several fields: she paints, she sings, and she plays a traditional Ukrainian instrument similar to an arp at professional levels.
If you want to hear her celestial voice, and learn more about her life manifesto, you can listen to this song on YouTube I found very amusing, because it reflects her reckless personality very well:

I was listening to this video on Sunday, while reviewing her pictures in Consonno, and it was the perfect soundtrack for this defiant young lady.
The song may be ironic up to a certain point, but also naively truthful, and refreshing.
I hope she will become a "star", eventually, but I also hope she will always have some time left to pose for me because, even if I tried getting an indigestion of Maria this Summer, the truth is I can NEVER get enough of her.

I wonder how many of you are already feeling the same sentiments towards this beautiful creature.
For those who still don't, I can tell you it is just a matter of time, and she is going to become our star, a star for whoever is going to be exposed to her charm through the pictures we made together.
