Here is another edited portrait of an early model posing in the same pair of myodisc glasses from the cat eye era. Brigitta posed for me in the autumn of 2009 at Nel's place and this portrait gives an impression of some of my safe sightings in the streets of Amsterdam. If the lady in question was in a conversation, she could well be unaware of the schoolboy who was catching a glimpse of her.
In retrospect, Brigitta was a perfect cast for a portrait like this. When I invited her for a photo shoot, her reaction was "Yes, I will meet your request but we will have to see if anything good comes out. I have this terrible camera fear....". What did the trick was to add some background music. Being an avid salsa dancer, Brigitta almost forgot that she was in the middle of a photo shoot and when we came to the section with the strong glasses, the combination of salsa music and massive blur did the trick. Great!
