Bramley Apple

Demi Fray is back!

What a strange week this has been, with 2 models returning to the Bramley Apple Project for a second helping, both shot for the first time several years ago (6 for Dovile, 7 for Demi), and both born in 1991.
In some ways the experience with Demi has been the opposite of the one with Dovile, because the trip of today was comfortable and in perfect time, but the shooting was disappointing.
The ground floor apartment was small, ugly and dark.
We tried our best to make this reunion sparkle, but we ended up with just 482 photos (compared with the 1341 I shot with Dovile), because a constant flow of inspiration did not ignite.
To save the day, I made experiments like pushing the Leica Summicron-M 90mm to its limits constantly operating it at f2, or practice my focusing skills with "Martin" on the GFX's viewfinder.
After all I had little to loose, and a very experienced model to play with.

This photo was shot on the Leica SL2-S, equipped with the Summicron-M 90mm used at f2, with stabilization turned on.
