Kashmir

Talk in song from tongues of lilting grace

Sounds caress my ear

And not a word I heard could I relate

The story was quite clear

 

Oh, baby, I been blind

Oh, yeah, mama, there ain't no denyin'

Oh, ooh yes, I been blind

Mama, mama, ain't no denyin', no denyin'

 

-Led Zeppelin, '"Kashmir'

 

I've been hearing this song a lot lately because reasons, and felt the urge to try to capture the... hrm. The way that the song makes me imagine a hazy, late-afternoon golden-hour sort of lighting. Since Kashmir is part of Pakistan and India (contested between the two nations and partitioned in that uniquely British late-Empire sort of way they did to people who weren't British), it struck me that hey- Zaara's beautiful main shop would be a good setting to play with light settings.

I did a fair bit of photoshop work on this one, though the real work was done with windlights and haze horizon/density settings.

 

The jacket's from Toksik and is named "Tussle' (and is available for a few male and female body types!); the hair's from Argrace and is named 'Shirogane'.
