Changsha – Eden in Blues

Eden in the evening news (video)

In August 2010 I was interviewed by a TV channel about my couchsurfing experience, and was seen later in the evening news. Couchsurfing is a website where people who like traveling in a backpacker’s way, with small budgets, can meet and make friends. All members can sleep for free at other members’ home. Its a great way to meet interesting people from all over the world, who usually share the same values of peace and universal friendship.

Chen Ya Ping, Newko issue #2

That was one of our best days, work quality and results speaking, inspiration speaking too. Chen Ya Ping is an art student, she is very photogenic, as long as she doesn’t smile, like most of the models I met, and has a great looking body. You’ll rarely see me taking photos of smiling models…

Men Meng model, Newko issue #2

Nice girl but really not that cute, apart from her eyes, but the way the make-up was done, I believe she lost all her charm, and looked very much like a…

Jiang Wei Yi model, Newko issue #2

As you may know, people in photography look very different from in daily life, the main reason being that a photo is a « piece » of a person only, and hopefully a yummy one lol. But our brain is used to make an overwhole physical image of a person with all the information gathered by the eyes at different moments (profile view, front view, back view, in dark, in light, at smiling or serious or crazy times ie according to emotions/feelings, in dark or light, etc). That overwhole image is the strongest, and usually averages our perception of human beauty to a quite mediocre level. We don’t like someone for just one thing, but for the averages of all his/her qualities and defects. And it’s also true, that most people are not that pretty.

But many people also…

Xiao Yan model, Newko issue #2

We were in a bar on Taipin street, and it was one of those cool days where I learnt a lot, and where Fengzi took a photo I am jealous of, where I did the settings, but he took the shot as he was holding the wide lens (Hell!)…

Life in Changsha: Gong Ping’s photos

Finally, here are a few of Gong Ping’s photos. They look really good, at least for me, and I think I accomplished my mission of taking « natural photos » of a young woman’s life. Wangjiao liked them a lot, as well as the other people in the office. [slidepress gallery=’gong-ping’] The next day, he started saying they were not sexy enough, and that she had too many clothes on, and that they would have been perfect if she was not wearing […]

Life in Changsha – 3rd and 4th days

The 3rd day we went to Hunan Wei Shi TV station to meet some possible partner who is a TV Show manager. Very instructive how things all link together. I also learnt that we have a kind of website for models, with a few other competitors. One of them is quite serious, but Wangjiao told me with a smile that he knows a way to beat them…
