#19 Pose Fair 2014: Les fleurs printanieres

The "ROQUAI les fleurs printanieres (Pose Fair 2014)" is the 1st special release for this years Pose Fair.

The concept follows the idea, to create a set of mixed poses presenting the spring, while not only working with (some of) the visualization of the characteristics of the picked examples, but as well to offer and present a wide range of fields within photography usage (like fashion, arts, daily life and even sports). It was a great challenge, I gave to myself and am excited to finally present the result to you.

Music I listened to while working on this project:


We got 6 static single poses (3 for human female, 3 for COCO DOLL male) within this set of poses, which will be only available at the Pose Fair as a big pack with a very exclusive offer for you.

We take a closer look upon our flowers and crawlers:

"ROQUAI Spring 1 (m) - The Canary (Doll)", a fashion like sit-pose.

To me the canary is a little cheeky bird, that loves to show off it's beauty in a bit, lets say in a "hysterical cute and odd" way.

Might it be it's little size forcing it to gain attention or else, I dunno, but it made me think of this pose.

"ROQUAI Spring 1 - The Pink Panther", a stand- and lay-pose.

Actually, this plant shows it's blossoms mostly in summer, but we know the panther itself got an important season in spring and for that I found the play between animal and plant quiet amusing.

For this pose, I concentrated on the playful elegance of the cat and the subliminal offensive way the flower presents itself to it's surroundings in my point of view.

"ROQUAI Spring 2 (m) - The Cricket (Doll)", another sit-pose.

Did you know there are about 900 known kinds of different cricket species? Or that they eat their own dead when there are no other sources of food available, and exhibit predatorial behavior upon weakened, crippled crickets? I didn't.

While there is plenty interesting stuff to read about them, I again concentrated more on the hard to determine feeling this insect gives me. Somehow it invokes in me fascination, mixed with an up-crawling disgust. (Just being honest.) Poor little fellow.

"ROQUAI Spring 2 - The Dandelion", a stand-pose.

Many names this flower has and not all are nice, while it proved in the past to be useful in many ways (gardening, food, medicine, child-plays, etc.). A tough little plant, I call it, which should not be underestimated.

"ROQUAI Spring 3 (m) - The Mantis (Doll)", a artistic yoga like stand-pose.

ROQUAI Mantis (1/3) - Pose Fair 2014

As well known as the "praying mantis", it got it's name because of the typical "prayer-like" posture with folded fore-limbs and predatory habits.

ROQUAI Mantis (2/3) - Pose Fair 2014

Known as a master of the hunters, I felt like visualizing the beauty of its movements and skills in this pose.

"ROQUAI Spring 3 - The Misteltoe", a stand-pose.

ROQUAI Misteltoe (1/3) - Pose Fair 2014

There perhaps is no other plant, that has such contradictory "meanings" to us as the mistletoe. Most of the year, it is seen as a parasite but at christmas all changes, as it's been traditionally used as the best excuse for a kiss.

ROQUAI Misteltoe (2/3) - Pose Fair 2014

I was wondering how that plant must feel and I hope to have worked it out well enough, what came to my mind.
