I hung a black background on the fence next to the entrance to the main stage of the Tel-Aviv gay parade after beach party, I used 1 flash + umbrella and started looking for interesting characters that were entering the gates!
This is a personal project focused on the freedom and diversity of Tel-Aviv.
All shots where taken outside in the middle of the famous gay parade after party on the Tel-Aviv beach front. Pumping music and 38 degree heat made it a lot of hard but fun work!

Who was Alphonse Mucha ?
Alphonse Mucha was born in 1860 in Moravia, now a region of the Czech Republic. He studied art in Vienna and Munich before arriving in Paris in 1887, when he enrolled at the Académie Julian, and later at the Académie Colarossi. He began to create illustrations for popular art and literary magazines in 1889. His big break came in December 1894, when he was commissioned to produce a poster advertising the premiere of Sarah Bernhardt’s play Gismonda at her Theater of the Renaissance. The poster which portrayed “The Divine Sarah” in the title role, had a distinctive tall and narrow format, presenting her as almost life size—it was literally an overnight sensation.
Mucha’s working relationship with the famous French actor continued for many years, elevating his role in Parisian society as he designed promotional posters, costumes, and sets for her productions. His graphic skills were also in high demand for advertising a wealth of products, and his work was well represented at the Austrian and Bosnia-Herzegovina Pavillion at the Paris Expostion of 1900.
The traditional folklore and religious practices of his Moravian heritage shaped Mucha’s intense spirituality and fostered his interest in Slavic culture. Two major personal projects, an illustrated book of the Our Father prayer and his monumental painting series The Slav Epic, testify to his artistic breadth and achievements beyond the more well-known illustrations. Mucha left Paris and returned to his native country in 1910 to concentrate on The Slav Epic, which occupied him for the remainder of his artistic career.
The rising tide of fascism in the 1930s led to Mucha’s work—as well as his Slavic nationalism—being denounced in the press as “reactionary.” When German troops marched into Czechoslovakia in the spring of 1939, Mucha was among the first to be arrested by the Gestapo. During the course of his interrogation, the aging artist fell ill with pneumonia. Though eventually released, he never recovered from the strain of the event, or from seeing his homeland invaded. He died in Prague on July 14, 1939 of a lung infection, and is interred there in the Vyšehrad cemetery.

On my bucket list of things to photograph is a single snowflake but I don't have the gear for it. Even with my 105mm macro, I would need extension tubes or some way to increase magnification. But I still took my macro lens out and tried to get a few close-ups. It was too wet and too cold for me to get more than a few clicks before I was ready to go back in. Ha!
I really enjoyed the meeting last night at Masters Apprentices. Matt Palmer was the guest speaker for the night. He is highly credentialed as he has won a number of awards including the 2016 AIPP QLD Sports Photographer of the Year.

MissV is the latest addition to my personal project, the "Black Light" series, where all painting is done by the subject and then they are photographed using 6 UV/black light CFL bulbs housed in 2 floor lamps.
For this series, I used a black background instead of the gray background I've been using lately. MissV brought her A-game with an ambitious painting job.
