Priviet, dear friends!
These photos were taken outdoors at -30C

Evening sun added gold colors to light.
But after reflecting from the snow lying all around, the light obtained white-blue colors...
This can be seen in the last photo - golden light from the left (on the photo) and white-blue from the right...

    Yuri,


    With your portraits, it's always about the eyes. Big, beautiful eyes.

    ... And these are no exception!

    Gorgeous, absolutely exquisite eyes.

    What is unusual in these images is the lighting. You did explain the evening sun and snowy blue, but the angle of the lighting is so much different from the usual "Yuri" light. Photos #1 and #2 seem almost like circular light. In #4, I see strong side lighting on the hair, but the eyes show light from below. Only #3 is similar to the nice broad light I normally see from you, but much less contrast, left to right.

    Were you in a structure of some sort? At -30C (-22F), I wouldn't blame you at all.

    Also, the color of #3 is so much different from the rest?

    Just curious,

    I always look forward to your pictures and these are great, as usual. She has such a soulful, sad look about her, and you captured it perfectly.

    Yuri - as usual you have captured a beautiful woman with stunning eyes in terrific compositions, however, the lighting here is not up to your normal level of excellence.

    Hi, Yuri
    I think that photos 3 & 4 have a more natural skin tone.
    Looks like you found another pretty model with great eyes.

    Take Care,
