The Pagan Witch Photoshoot

At last when the weather spared me from the freezing cold which prevented me from holding my camera in my hands, I had done a pagan photoshoot with the lovely Maria.
I met her at a concert in February [?]. I saw her from a far and noticed she had blue hair. She looked so pretty to me I decided to come to her after the show and suggest doing a photoshoot with her.
This was the first time I ever introduced myself to someone with the interest of making photos. I frankly just wanted to know her as a person before I thought about photograohy, because she seemed so special to me, and I mainly felt awkward just walking towards her saying my name, which is hers too.

So as I promised her we went to a forest near Treptower Park where I had the Post Punk photoshoot from the previous post.
It was a great pleasure. I never had such beautiful feminine photos on the one hand, and dark Black Metal photos on the other. I am really happy of this bi polarity, I believe the wanted something personally special of this photoshoot and we both got it in different ways.
The atmosphere was so calm and nice, I really felt harmony inside doing what I do, planning and not planning  different compositions. I still believe Photography is the art of randomness.

From my DeviantART page.







I am so honored to be able taking a kind of pictures I never did!!! I don't even know which "side" of this shoot I like most. Everything looks beautiful to me, and Maria sure fitted well to this role. I don't think someone else would have.

What do you think? Opinions and mostly critique is always welcome. Improving myself is very important to me.
Thank you for the attention!

    1. Thanks so much for your opinion. Well the black and white does look more enchanting, and my camera is much better with b/w than with color to say the least. So fixing the colors on the computer only seldom leaves me with a satisfied result.
