A great trio of photos.  My favourite is the first one.  The muted colours are very appealing.

Hi MD,

You might consider displaying these as a triptych; I think that might work well (first in centre I would think?).

These are not just a 1960s theme. They are a post-1960s reflection on that era. That is important, as they do not look like they were shot in the 1960s but, rather, view then as being enshrouded in time's fog. Creating a pastiche of the 1960s would have been easier: more brash colour and design; longer shot and no fade. Instead, you have chosen an approach with more integrity; an approach which says something different.

Moreover, these are also portraits...

I assume of your sister?

She has a fascinating face for portraiture, which you utilize very well. It is a young, fresh face with playfulness dancing upon it, perhaps as one might hope and expect of the young. However, there is also a somewhat enigmatic depth which you capture so well.

The first shot seems to be a girl calling through time from the 1960s. Sure the aforementioned fading helps here but also the model's expression and head angle suggest someone trying to make contact with us from the past ("The past is another country - they do things differently there." - LP Hartley (or Lee!))

The second shot is playfully posed but the model's expression / eyes suggest far more depth. As is the hands represent a cage, from which she knows she will not escape.

The third shot is the most conventional and, for me, says less than t'other two. Nevertheless, it is still excellent. It seems to represent a young person looking toward the future.

So I think your three shots maybe past / present / future - all looking back to a girl in the 1960s. Maybe I was wrong about that triptych order - they should be as displayed - left-to-right as you have them top-to-bottom.

Very well done to both you and your model.

Thanks muchly.
