Bramley Apple

Shining through.

The skin of Martina has infinite degrees of shine, from the total opacity in the shadows, to the wet highlights on her ribs.
Her entire body is a temple of contrasts, from the black hair that absorbs the light, to the beaming glaze in her eyes.

I hate the burned highlights in the photos of some other photographers, I know it is supposed to be a style, but I feel like if something important is missing, like cutting out some high or low frequencies in music.
Sometimes I try highly contrasted photos, just to open up my mind and my vocabulary, but the photos I prefer are the one like this one, with soft and gradual passages between the extremes, and with every pixel of the pictures telling its part of the story.
