Esther 101

When these glasses came to me I first thought that they

were made by Cazal, but there is no name on the frame.

The model's eyes seem round compared to all her previous

portraits and this is caused by the axis of the strong cylinders

in the lenses. Generally speaking, a horizontal axis (90 degrees)

is more flattering to the lady's eyes than the more common

vertical axis (0 or, if preferred, 180 degrees). The effect can

also be seen in my first photo shoot with Marleen who has

minus four cylinders with an almost horizontal axis direction.

Another big compliment to Esther for the natural looks in this

pair of glasses. Many models commented that strong & wrong

cylinders in the lenses makes the posing far more difficult than

a dioptric strength that is way off. Somehow, Esther manages

to pose as if everything is crystal clear. Hat off for the lady!
