Windows & Reflections in Colour

photocrati gallery

I have always had more than just a passing interest in the many sensual aspects of photography, but discovering these amazingly designed set displays in shop windows was a match made in photographic heaven.

All around me were mannequins showing off their size six figures, and unless they were actually lingerie mannequins, they never seemed to wear a bra…  There often appears to be a general premise of sexuality and even eroticism in much of what I was experiencing in these scenes. Lips are large, necklines are low, even attitudes were strong, steamy…

As with my black and white landscape photography, I feel that colour should be bold and contrast should be gripping. The designers of these window sets work diligently to get the balance of colour and design just right. Aside from the sensuality, colour and design pull us off the street and into shops.
