I really like this image. The subdued tones work will. This reminds me a bit of one of my favorite photographers, Sarah Moon, especially her fashion work. Here is a link to an interview with herhttp://www.horvatland.com/pages/entrevues/07-moon-en_en.htm
This is the sort of photo you see in photo art books. Celebrating talent through the decades. I hope your work gets that sort of attention because it really is excellent! I love this gallery. It says so much, yet leaves me without words.
