Yogacharini Zigi
Gelatin-silver photograph on Fomabrom Variant III FB VC, image area 21.3cm x 16.5cm, from a Tmax 100 negative exposed in a Tachihara 4x5 camera equipped with a 30cm f7.5 single meniscus lens.
A yogacharini is a woman who accesses the spiritual side of yoga by extended meditation and stillness in postural forms. There is an ascetic aspect in the practice as well as a lifestyle example that invites others to follow.

Hi Maris

A beautiful portrait using some interesting techniques.

And I learnt something.

$1000 lens are over rated. Got a great glow and feel about the image

A quietly powerful communication of the spirit of the subject. Lusciously creamy with a sublime aura (in all senses).
