Geoff Treagus, Nature is She (PEOPLE 2022)

I've always had an interest in both the human form and nature, so to be able to combine both themes has been fantastic, and fascinating. As a good friend has often pointed out, "Models have the best of ideas!", and whilst its true I had the basic vision or pictures in mind, a perfectly timed subtle movement instigated by the model makes a huge difference! So there's another aspect of this sort of artistic endeavour I like - that of collaboration and the bouncing of ideas. I'm also very happy with the dream-like quality these photographs have. To me, they have a sense of agelessness about them, and I think that in itself could connect to a number of different narratives and yet more ideas to explore later. These photos were taken just outside the border of Brisbane, in the Redlands, Queensland, using a Canon M6 (mark 1), with a Canon EF-M 18-150mm lens.
