I don't believe that sword is real and is heart breaking

Beautiful picture. I now imagine this is how the Lady of the Lake from the King Arthur legend looks. :)

This is just a whole different level of talent. Superbly done.

First comment on Reddit. That is the best portrait, photo, piece of art I have ever encountered. Cold yet beautiful. I’m honestly amazed that it moves me the way it does.

Stunning, but still not a good basis for government

It's beautiful!! Where is the right leg though? It kinda confused my brain.

This is beautiful! Very cool. You'd make a real neat Soulsborne boss.

I don’t usually look at a picture and immediately say “damn…” and stare at it….

Mission accomplished. Well done 👍🏽

That's a cool sword you got there.

Oh, and also the art is nice.

As a professional photographer who spent years specializing in shooting models for art and I have to say that this is stunningly good.

That’s a truly spectacular photo! Where did you find a sword that iconic looking? 😁

"Hey Dave, I was sorry to hear about your wife's passing. She was so beautiful"

"Thanks man, I told her that there was a reason no one had ever combined their love of pole dancing with a love of razor sharp broadswords but she just wouldn't listen. But I have to admit it, her routine was beautiful while it lasted."

Reign Dance is a title I gave it for myself. Nice work

Inspired, I wrote:

Valhalla Rising,

Upon her face is porcelain resistance. Once tender to the touch, now stony in refracted light. Stiff is her gaze reflecting sterner thoughts of judgement and denial. Soft memories they do not serve. Pottery, though hard, is fragile. When struck and struck again she cries tears of gold to fill the cracks. Stronger in their makeup now by chemistry of bondage. Yet through each guilded line shines truth. Sweet beams of soul marks from out her shell. Cry tears of gold, the chosen paths of sadness.

mrgeek2000 t1_jabelxv wrote

Reminds me of a character design concept, where the character everything is very human and muscular, BUT the face is completely blacked out. Almost like staring into an endless void, no matter the lighting, it’s gunna be pitch black

I wish my tits were this perky. My nips touch the goddamn floor

Dinrik t1_jabh1kj wrote

I’m happy you photoshopped your nips out that was a classy move 🫶. Definitely could be a sick album cover.

Funny. I clicked on this picture and thought it was well put together, saw a comment talking about the beautiful folks in your profile, went snooping and discovered I commented on another photo of yours a couple of days ago because I liked the composition.

Browsing through your posted work I can say the following confidently:

  1. I like your work
  2. You know a whole lot of attractive people and Dylan Playfair knows how to rock a sweater.
  3. Your dad has been photogenic for decades.
  4. You're really, really attractive.
  5. Stanley park streetlights are on this Earth but not of it.

Thanks for posting the stuff you have. It was enjoyable browsing through it.

Seriously, though. That streetlight is something else.

2023 Narcissist generation. All art is of the artist themselves. Upvotes on reddit for nudity. Great

This seems like it would be a cool tattoo for down the abdomen or down the spine. Unfortunately I have both spots taken but wish they weren't for this

_CatLover_ t1_jabvrro wrote

You can tell it's a female photographer as there is actually art going on and not just bare boobs in black and white

This is gorgeous!! I love the symmetry of the sword but the asymmetry of the pose!

SirHectorMacDonald t1_jabymn6 wrote

This is such an atmospheric photo. As others have said it would make an excellent album cover. I went through a lot of your photos and you’re definitely very talented and have an excellent eye for composition.

Nice sword.

For a sword this length I would recommend a bigger cross guard, a slightly longer handle, and maybe a second small (cross) guard a bit higher up on the blade. (Google Zweihander/ montante)

There is something incredibly sexy about this. Something about the fusion of textures, symbolism and mystery.

From hardened steal, to skin/flesh, to the airy/silky flow of the fabric.

The masculine symbolism behind the pointed blade combined with the female body and curves.

Then the fact that everything is equally revealing but also shrouded in mystery.

Also the contrast between light, dark and shiny bright.

This is incredible. I love it. Welll done.

​

Also, that is a huge sword. - someone will probably make a hoke about this. -_-

Not gonna lie, I saw the NSFW tag and I thought this was again going to be one of those nude baseless photographs but then I looked at the photo and I was like damn! That looks so good

I feel like this should be the sculptureal hood ornament of an expensive 1940s car.

SalomoMaximus t1_jachgnm wrote

Then I would suggest to not extend the sword longer than the leg, it kinda looks weird... Like the sword stops at the knee and continues after the foot. Because the sword symmetrics just suggest a shorter sword

This is such a striking image, wow! I love your art.

I rarely ever comment on things on the Internet. Rarely like almost never. But this image is spectacular. No, it's more than that. It's perfect. Thx. I shall look at it many times.

Where did you get the sword

As I mentioned in another comment, I was having a pretty heavy day and feeling pretty shit about myself when I did it and I’m just amazed by people’s reactions and really touched by how much people like it. ❤️

This literally made my jaw drop. Absolutely breathtaking, it’s been a long time since I’ve had such a reaction to any photograph.

katewhytephoto OP t1_jacqhoa wrote

With all due respect - I’m not a sword expert but I like how it looks this way. There might be a few people with extensive sword knowledge that might disagree but composition is more important than weapon accuracy to me.

katewhytephoto OP t1_jacs8qc wrote

For sure, people are welcome to offer opinions - I used to be too concerned about others opinions to be honest - at this point in my career, I’m fairly confident in my own work and while I certainly respect other points of view, I won’t always agree with them.
