Marvellously immersive and with a very cinematic feel. Your trademark elongated format works wonders here, and brilliantly showcases the gloomy vastness of the forest, as well as the small oasis of warmth created by the fire. An ambiguous source of comfort, this : if it brings immediate relief to the weary traveller, does it not also make everything that doesn't lie within its circle of light more oppressive -- more treacherous, more threatening ? The watchful look of expectancy on the face of the traveller, as darkness closes in, is wonderfully evocative : what will eventually come out of the shadows of the wild woods ? Will it be foe... or worse foe ?
Another amazing, meticulously crafted image.

It took me some time to answer to this since I can't remember one single comment that drilled so deep inside what my original vision was, this is literally like you went and took a stroll behind the scenes of my conceptualizing and took notes, couldn't have wrote it better myself. Thank you so much for this and your appreciation.
There's more where this image come from so see you around with my next creation.
Until next time

I'm glad I wasn't too far off the mark, then ! You create worlds both wonderful and terrifying, and I'm sure I'll enjoy the ride, even though I'm a (somewhat) late newcomer.

I love the atmosphere of this. Beautiful lighting. It evokes a sense of story. A traveller on a journey, stopping for rest, caught up in his thoughts.

Thank you, the journey has been going on for a while now so all the weight of it is starting to show, as I take more shots it will all start to make more sense.

How long you need, to get your scene prepared?

At this point I'm a shadow, counting just the time on location it can all be done in less than an hour, I've been doing it for so long now that everything is ready beforehand, I try the pose at home, sketch and take notes on the concept, try the expressions and take notes on the technical aspects. so, the total time isn't really known since it is all done in pieces but I'd say that conceptualizing is a week long, all for 60 minutes of shooting (and several hours of post-production to make it look just right).
If you have instagram, I post the behind the scenes there.
