So, we move across the room & make some pictures in the big comfy chair.  I'm still having some focus problems, and such problems are doubled because my old eyes are no longer good enough to check the focus in the camera's LCD screen.  Still, we make some exposures here.

Sylvia notices my collection of photography books in the bookcase besides the big comfy chair.  So, we look at some photos.  Here's one she especially liked (by Ruth Bernhard, I think).

 

I had it in my mind to do some images here in the big comfy chair, probably because the light was really nice before Sylvia arrived.  But by the time we finished working on the other side of the room, the light had changed, and I felt that it was too contrasty.  So we moved on to another spot, upstairs.

Normally, I present images on this page in the order that they were made, but I'm not doing that here.  After giving up on the big comfy chair, Sylvia & I went upstairs & made some images under the skylight (which are featured on the next page).  After that, we slid over into this little alcove for some final images.

Below is a B&W and color version of the same image.

Like I did in the previous sitting with Arie, I only scheduled a two hour sitting with Sylvia.  I think the new, shorter sitting length is working out, especially if I do a little more planning ahead & set up different concepts in different parts of the house before the model arrives.

I like this picture -- there's very good interpersonal contact, and I'm glad we don't see too much.

The two setups shown on this page could be considered "filler" setups -- things I wanted to try.  However, I knew before Sylvia arrived that the primary concepts were the "Getting Started" images from the previous page, and the skylight pictures on the next page.

This sitting concludes with Under The Skylight.
