“dragging the shutter”??? Do you mean using a slow shutter speed? If so, why not say it clearly.

I take issue with Teger’s statement, “I didn’t want to resort to camera or darkroom tricks as that would make the work less credible.” What sort of “tricks” make a photograph less “credible”? Does dragging the shutter somehow invalidate one’s work? What about stopping down for depth of field? Correcting exposure in post? Good thing he was shooting on film by gosh; there’s all kinds of voodoo tricks going on in those new-fangled electric SLR’s…

For that matter, what does “credible” mean anyway? Sellable? Believable? Since he didn’t use Photoshop, are we to believe there were real miniature people playing on a woman’s body? I really have no idea what he’s talking about, nor do I believe his point holds any water. Great pics though!

A similar type of photos was also done by a Czech photographer Petr Sládek … He employed a winter theme, so a lots of “snow” and hand-made tiny models… you can check those here: http://bit.ly/Ay7l0n

Nice that it has been rediscovered, again. It has been around for as long as we have been photographing and before that in Silhouette art.

Thanks Mr. Anda! I had not known about his work prior, and have changed the title to reflect it.

Nice photos! I’ll just have to disagree with you, that’s not a “new” way to shoot female body form, I know some guys that have been working on that for YEARS, one is Ciuco Gutierrez from Spain, you can see some of his work here http://bit.ly/znkaDr ;) Those photos are, at least, 10 years old
