Here in London it has been already - bit too chilly today but Thursday was brill!

Yes, I'm often amazed by how relaxed some models are in the nude happy to wander around a studio between shots with the studio owner wandering through.

Says a lot about you John - key to all good people photography whether clothed or not - is trust between model and person with the camera. One probably won't get to the unclothed stage if the trust isn't there.

Horseradish?

B&W for me

Yes, it's where this tram stops/starts. Tunel isn't very long though.

Antik Tram in Istanbul - I seem to remember them saying it was the oldest underground in Europe

Street shot of couple on the edge of the Bosphorus - taken in 2013 - I wonder if they are still together?

Just testing my new macro flashlights bought on eBay - 2x SB-R200 coupled with my existing SU-800 commander.

Just reupping this image from my newsletter last week, that I hope people will feel free to save and liberally spred around the interwebs. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Love the Robin! Are these funded murals do you know? Or just work volunteered by the artist?

Debbie Leema - thought I'd repost it as it has been well received on FB

Lydia - long one of my favourite models

Enjoy Utah!

Probably wouldn't get much of a signal....

Lydia - is she still modelling since she left Russia?

Lots of coffee! And an occasional cup of tea

Thank you, it's a while ago but think it was a single strobe at about 45 degrees to the model up above and to her left.

Very brave!
