Recently, I've found that bloggers, critics, editors of magazines, you name it, are becoming more and more focused on the photography in an editorial. And there's nothing wrong with that - you all know me and my obsession with lighting and photography as an art in general. Talented photographers are something we all love and it's amazing to see thousands of them out there, developing their signature compositions, etc.
There was a time, when I was a 3-year-old, that it was too much about the name of the model on the page, and people started freaking out that we were losing the art in fashion (I know - I'm weird - I don't remember my kid brother stealing my favourite toy, but I remember some guy on some screen talking about Kate Moss). I feel like we've swung a bit in the opposite direction and forgotten about the models. We'll recognise a big name or a pretty face, and then admire the lighting and the composition of the shot, and forget that the model is a working artist.
And after all that (I'm not even going to read it over because it's embarrassing how much I've ranted), I would just like to say that Behati Prinsloo is amazing and this shot is the greatest piece of genius modelwork I've seen in such a long time.
