It takes two to tango

Straight out of camera, except using healing tool to remove the strings...

Two LED torches used for light, and a glass smeared with vaseline for the effect.

That film and M.A: Numminen definitely makes it look more fun, but usually Finnish tango just sound very melancholic and depressive! =D

Yes, I used a thin black string, which mostly disappeared against the black background. I only had to edit it away from the "necks".

Sami Serola (inactiv… ^club has replied to Gudrun ^club

Thank you, Gudrun =) Indeed miracles can be done even without post processing. Although a little of it had to be done to remove the traces of the strings used.

What a great idea and picture editing! One have to have ideas! ;-)
The toothbrushes have direct human traits! Through your great editing, the scene looks very dreamy and soft on me. Wonderful, Sami! How did you manage to get the two upright?

Sami Serola (inactiv… ^club has replied to Stevia ^club

Thank you very much, Stevia =)

I hanged them with thin black string, which disappeared against black background. Then I only had to carefully remove the string around the brushes with GIMP 'Healing Tool'.
