I find it very very cute, and photographically interesting and refreshing, quite arising my curiosity about the photographer, ddimaria, and Melissa the subject (and the dummer too).

Once I was told that the biggest challenge for a photographer comes when nothing is happening around. At this point full creation starts. It seens to me that in some sense this thinking is related to ddimaria's work, Melissa.

Who is Melissa ? She can be ddimaria's girlfriend, sister, daughter (yes ddimaria, I hear you laughing now) etc. But for sure she is a person with mutual heart relationship with the photographer. Otherwise this collection of images, perhaps a photo-story by itself, could never been made.

We all have around people we love, yet not all of us have produced such touching collection. The outstanding harmony between photographer and subject further extends to the dummer, making it all a heaven of love and peace, with sensible rythm, natural innosense and clean images. The subject, Melissa, no doubt deserves her weight in gold. Nor the dummer is to forget. But let us not understate ddimaria's eye to magnify his subject, without forcing it to pose.

Given the fact Melissa is close to ddimaria, I would like to thank him for such bold, and intimate gate, he has allowed me to enter. Ddimaria has produced for himself a lasting document he will enjoy as much as the yers pass by and I can only envy.

Cheers,
Ruben

Ruben, my apologies, I recieved your latest PM, to be honest with you I didn't understand what you were trying to tell me before. I had no idea this thread existed!! Thank you for your kind words. It's been a while since I have posted pictures on the forum. I stopped once I set up my own website. Thanks to all who liked the photo's. That time has passed, but I'm glad I have pictures from it though. I guess things continue here:

To bad, DD disconnected from the 'net. Mellisa is beautiful actress, I think, and DD's work is amazing. Or, she can easy disconnect herself from the world. Fantastic

Thanks for the compliments. For the record she wasn't an actress and I'm still connected here: www.pazonada.com

One day I'll go through the rest of those negatives.
