Juliette 066

This is one of my favourite portraits from the photo shoot with Juliette. Great posing in a pensive mood. Part of it is "facilitated" by the fact that the lenses are minus eleven, over twice the model's own prescription. Posing in glasses that only create a massive blur often leads to better results than posing in glasses that are just a touch off. Beyond a certain gap, the brain tells the eyes that it's useless to try and focus. Models with a certain feel for abstraction and introspection (or even acting) can turn the disadvantage of the visual blur into the advantage of creating an entire fantasy universe of their own. Well done, Juliette!
