my wording in my last message was too harsh. your style is your style and the photo is attractive. it isn't anything like what i've seen Bernard do and i didn't word it correctly. i am sorry.
i've taken three workshops with Bernard and produced three for him. i don't think that the photograph is anywhere near his style. the books are glaringly white and the leg of the women is too indistinct. i don't think that the photograph pays him very much homage.
From what I've googled of Plossu, he creates striking abstract patterns, unlike what you've achieved here. I do, however, like your photograph for its own merits. The cutting off of the head to be replaced by a pile of books is simply brilliant.
I like the anonimity(?) of the cut off head.
I even like the too dark shadows by her legs and the blown out whites of the books.
strange that.
good work and good luck.
I love the mysterious feel of this image straight of out a Hitchcock movie set it seems. The BW and the frame really completes the success of this image. A bit dark at the lower left corner but I don't seem to mind.
