Description
Reality is a crutch... for people who can't handle Poser.
I dedicate this image to my friend Greg, who's creeped out by the hollow eyed stare of Poser models... He's part of the driving force behind my "Just a portrait" series. I'm shooting for a dreamy quality, while not losing track of a "real" quality... LOL, sound conflicting? Those who know me know that fits...

Fantastic Portrait Mate!!! Can't say anymore than that!!!! 'C Yer! Alan
very beautiful and soft Image!!!
Makes perfect sense to me!:) Lovely portrait and the look in her eyes is as if she's miles away...dreaming! Beautifully done!
Soft and dreamy... and quite some realism too! Though I don't think I've ever seen a real woman as beautiful as your ladies.. Love it!
a beautiful dream, luv the soft colors... now give her some wrinkles & a bit of a droop & i'll believe :]
Dreamy and lovely..beautiful colors! Nicely done!!
nicely done portrait. no hollow-eyed stare here. the soft focus works really well. and the colours are deep and lively.
Sometimes a person just has no faith and you build a substitute faith for them as a simulation. When they realize that believing in something works they sometimes wish to build a aggrandizement on top of your simulation. Then they hope you will drop the pretext of a woman on a pedestal and just let the money flow that is coming to the new positive image. Her makeup and hair is fine enough and subtle enough to have been done by Susan Kaminga.
Bravo John!! This is so gorgeous and soft! vote
Very beautiful image , well done:-)
She's beautiful John :) Beautiful work as always, and yes, I understand perfectly what you mean. It's not conflicting at all. :-)
Beautiful ! I love her softness and dreamy eye'd stare. I've seen real girls giving me the creeps with their nothing-in-there stares..atleast this isn't reality. Only I have to say..if the facial morphs worked the way they're supposed to you could get some decent emotion in a face. Great job.. it's just beautiful
She has that dreamy look at her face - magnificent! Soft and beautiful portrait!
