I don't shoot angel wings.....
...and I don't understand their appeal!!!! Will someone please tell me why they are so popular? Oct 01 08 10:48 pm Link Oct 01 08 10:50 pm Link I will, if they're nice, like Yaya's wings.... No, they're not photoshop... she makes some very, very nice wings. Black ones, too. O, not my shot, by the way. J. Corsentino. Oct 01 08 10:51 pm Link I have shot them. There are a few photographers on here who have done incredible things with them. Done right, they're gorgeous images. Oct 01 08 10:51 pm Link How about these: Granted, they weren't there when I took the shot, but...

I should note that there is no such thing as a bad concept. I've seen angel wings done incredibly well. Danny Oct 01 08 10:53 pm Link ehh yeah most of the time i think it looks cheesy as well. Oct 01 08 10:53 pm Link I can't tell you why this appeals to me, it just does. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v66/e … 1222916002 (18+) Oct 01 08 10:54 pm Link Well, it was cool when it first came out, but when masses is doing it. It becomes a turn off. Unfortunately, some models and photographers still think it is cool. Hey, it is a free country. Freedom of choice.

Oct 01 08 10:58 pm Link Oct 01 08 10:58 pm Link i was here Oct 01 08 10:58 pm Link They are very popular, well at least with models and copyright violators. The general public and parents love them. Just do a www.tineye.com search on my current avatar to see how popular they are. see my reply in this thread: https://www.modelmayhem.com/po.php?thre … 159&page=2 Personally I rather not do any more of them, I'm tired of doing them, but try telling that to a paying customer. My favourite "winged" image, (not mine, by Jeffery Scott 1019 MM#1980): https://www.modelmayhem.com/pic.php?pic … &pid=68813 Oct 01 08 10:59 pm Link Oct 01 08 11:00 pm Link Other kids have gotten pics with Santa Claus...therefore my kids don't need a pic with Santa Claus :-p Love the logic ;-) Oct 01 08 11:06 pm Link its ok if you shoot them with caution tape down by the RR tracks Oct 01 08 11:09 pm Link michael george wrote: Don't forget the Gag Ball, gotta have a Gag Ball! Oct 01 08 11:14 pm Link Every female model was someone's little angel. Oct 01 08 11:15 pm Link I like the angel pics....especially the one I took... too bad I can't figure out how to post it here! LOL!! Oct 01 08 11:16 pm Link Truly Inspired Images wrote: OH HOW I AGREE. hate them. bs Oct 01 08 11:18 pm Link I would like them better if the model was also carrying a guitar and had her boobs covered by caution tape, while standing on RR tracks...

Will someone please tell me why they are so popular? Oct 01 08 11:29 pm Link I would rather see a cheesy angel wing cliche' image then the same old boring girl sitting pretty for no reason that litters this site. I say more Angel wing pictures!

Oct 01 08 11:32 pm Link StevenDavid wrote: It always gets personal.... and I don't understand that, either! Oct 01 08 11:33 pm Link I think like any concept, it's all a matter of how it's done. Sure I've seen hundreds of bad pictures with wings done. But then again, look at James Porto's series of Winged Women and they are amazing............ Oct 01 08 11:34 pm Link ... and in front of a brick wall covered in graffiti.... Actually, there are a lot of examples of beautiful angel wing images. It just seems to get overdone the most in the goth kind of look, in my opinion. Oct 01 08 11:34 pm Link Fotographia Fantastique wrote: That image is so AMAZING, I want to just stare at it. Surprising because I didn't think I liked angel wings either. Oct 01 08 11:36 pm Link Truly Inspired Images wrote: Some of us know how to do photographs and some us of don't. Oct 01 08 11:37 pm Link Even doing a TFP/CD shoot, it is a trade, and if a model makes a request, she gets her shot too. Thus I have a few in my current portfolio. https://www.modelmayhem.com/pic.php?pid=802259918+ https://www.modelmayhem.com/pic.php?pid=784908418+ Oct 01 08 11:38 pm Link in addition to angel's wings i also don't get swords or any of that dungeons and dragons crap.
