Wanda Salt Creek Fire bw 08_08_07.jpg

Ok, this image is being posted because Wanda liked it or you could say she liked how she looked in the picture.

It really doesn't fit in with the other photos from this shoot. I just snapped this shot as she hiked up to the rock where we took the other photos.

Canon EOS 5D ,Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM
1/125s f/7.1 at 105.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Well, this one doesn't evoke quite the same mood as the previous pictures and it's because of the boots. However, it IS another splendid piece of proof that Wanda has won the genetic lottery. If you don't believe me, ask my wife who is absolutey beautiful, and just a couple of years older than Wanda, but who hasn't worn shorts since she was 44 because capris "hide her waffles" :-( But that's ok . Since this one wasn't quiete as artistic, I wasn't distracted from my usual lecherous thoughts directed towards Wanda. At least I wasn't until I read the OTHER BILL's comments. The image he invoked of Bill in this photo wearing only hiking boots was like being doused by a bucket of ice water :-)

Well Wanda, I second your opinion on the "looking good" in this shot. Then again, when do you ever not look amazing!...(Cheshire grin!) Perhaps Bill, you would consider teaching a "hands on" photography class? We could all fly out and try capturing Wanda the way you have so beautifully done? (Never know unless you ask!)

I just went back and reviewed all the previous gallerys and photos. Besides the technical expertise that was evident, I was struck by the trust shown between the model and photographer. The trust seems to go in both directions. If it was Bill dressed in boots and nothing else and Wanda doing the shooting, the comfort level between model and photographer would be the same.

those three last pics bring me back to the exact conception I had when i read Robert Lawhead's books about King Arthur ! Wanda, playing the role of Morgan when she is praying in the forest...but then again, Morgan didn't look that good and had no boots on in the books ! Ever thought about an Arthurian photoshoot ?

I really love those pictures...and Wanda, i'm pretty sure Arthur would have fought for you !

I'd say she has a right to be proud of that toosh... ;)

I love the movement of this

A Question: Were High Heels ever even considered for this shot? Ooops, my mind was wandering again...nevermind...

I kind of feel that the boots detract from the "new beginning" feeling that were in the other 2 images
But then, I only look at them to read the exif data, lol
Lovely b/w

The socks are nice too, but it's the boots that make the image work.
Guest 10-Aug-2007 07:36
mmm haven't reached the boots yet.....

This is Wanda at her best...the firmest buns in the state....

Love it !!

Nice contrasts!

I'm almost positive I noticed the boots at least once. ;)
Guest 10-Aug-2007 06:41
ME TOO

Actually, I just liked the boots! (laffin)
