I like the darkness to this photo with the woman in fur. The dark edge makes you wonder where she is headed and what she is thinking. Well done!

Damn fine real life photos, gritty and hard. Particularly like The Doll and Untitled 3 Jan. Good to see stuff like this here.

I really like this one, Fernando. It´s great. When you take photos like this to people do they notice? You ask them for permission?

@adalove: Nope, just shoot and go, although if there's something in particular i need to capture then i ask. the worst thing that can happen is that they tell you to bugger off. so bugger off for another one.
Yeah I was wondering about the question too (above)... But since you used 105mm, I guess you stood pretty far away and zoom in all the way ya?

@Yanle: not really, i was a couple of metres away, indeed i normally wait until they realise i'm there, it's when they look into the camera that i shoot
I love the dark tones of this image and the lady's expression. Great sense of narrative is present here, nice work Fernando
