A creepy mask. But apart from that I really appreciated the position of the body and head, the perfect light and simplicity of execution. And apart from that, I want to say that the mask is great and deserved my personal ranking.

A portrait that may seem simple, done in the studio, but despite this it sends me a series of mysterious and pleasant messages. The red-haired girl, the dark-lady, whose mask recalls the tattoo on her body, is adorable. An intriguing shot that deserves to be framed.

Intense gaze, blue eyes that sting through the mask. It appears that the mask belongs in full title to the person who wears it. I would like to remember her like this: cold and severe. Photographing the Venetian carnival is not always easy due to the lack of the right light, but I find this image very bright and effective.

An impressive surrealist image. A mask of your face that you can take off and put back on at will. The look is disturbing, waiting for something that is probably not known. Excellent sharp shooting and post production, very laborious and effective. Only two essential colors help to capture the message immediately.

Even this slightly surreal shot: the mask that possesses the girl's eyes, gaze and intense gaze. Interpretation may not be easy. That's why I like it. The black-white color keeps concentration on the subject. No distractions. Only the emotions that move the unconscious (and also conscious).
