Nude with Oranges


A naked lady in the Jardin Bioves in Menton.

  1. Great looking statue and title. I love the pose and angle you shot the second one. Why the close up of the feet?

  2. Clueless in Boston, well I'm not sure I have a good answer except I loved the relaxed pose of the feet and in the photograph, I liked the texture and detail of the stone. It was a toss up as to which was the main photo and perhaps I should have put them on in reverse?

  3. Well worth enlarging to see the details AND the oranges - which all add up to a nice context for the relaxing, and substantial lady!. At first I thought perhaps she was making a phone call on the mobile.

  9. Two of my favourite things combined in one shot. Neat!

  10. The closeup of the feet is good...it brings the rest of the sculpture to a more present tense. You can almost feel them. And if you could, you'd know the rest of the person.

    Great work!

  11. Both photos are very nice. I am guessing she has name.
    and a heart of stone

  13. I like this 2-photo format.

    So very often you wind up taking a bunch of photos, and it's hard to select just one. This solves the problem.

  14. I prefer the feet picture, but I'm glad to watch the entire statue too, to have an idea.
    The close up is more original, something we don't expect. With branches, ground and tree, it's almost as if they were real covered with grey sand.

  15. Oh, dear! What kind of mind do I have since I expected something quite different! I am, however, content with this image!
