I don’t take pictures every day, and even when I am photographing a lot, the fact that I am not digital means that a good deal of time can go by before some of my pictures see the light of day. However there is one exception. I teach photography for a living and at the end of every course I give my students a thank you photograph that I have photographed the same year. This mysterious lady is one of my mannequins, photographed during a short visit to Paris in January 2007 and given to my students in portraiture in April.
