TITLE: Bare harmony with nature

In the stillness of the woods, where the murmur of a hidden cascade lingers in the air, Dorka stands - naked, at home in the landscape. The soft morning light spills over her, while a lamp gently illuminates her form. She is not merely a figure in the woods, but a presence - her body seamlessly woven into the natural world. Naked, she becomes part of the earth, the rocks, the nature.

Standing beside a great stone, her arm raised in a quiet, deliberate pose, she invites us to witness, but not to approach. Her nudity is not an invitation to be approached, but a quiet declaration of her belonging. As she reclines on the rock, her gaze turned away, she remains apart from us. The interplay of light and shadow highlights her form, yet it distances her from the viewer — she is illuminated, but unreachable, a living part of the landscape, yet untouchable.

In another moment, she crouches, her body poised with an effortless grace, her eyes meeting the camera with a directness that feels like an invitation to look. She is alone in her world, untouched by the viewer’s gaze. Finally, she stretches along the rock, her face hidden beneath a cascade of hair, her body blending into the textures of stone and earth. She dissolves into the landscape - inviting, but distant.

Transcending conventional eroticism, this narrative is a celebration of beauty in its purest form. Dorka’s natural body, unashamed and at ease in the woods, merges with the rugged terrain, creating a space where the viewer is left to observe from afar. There is no artifice - only the essence of being, unguarded and timeless, existing in harmony with the world around her.

AUTHOR: Eric Brunelle (Germany)

Eric is a French amateur photographer, often regarded as an artist thanks to his international awards and his distinctive vision of the nude. For more than twenty years he has explored the beauty of the female form, working mainly in Germany, Hungary, and Croatia, while continuously searching for new outdoor locations to spark inspiration and give birth to new visual stories.

His images have appeared in respected magazines, books, and exhibition catalogues, and have been presented in five exhibitions, both solo and group, confirming his place within the photography community. His artistic path was shaped by meaningful collaborations and mentorships, from early technical training with German photographer Arboulan to a deeper artistic awakening guided by Hungarian artists Szeni Jung and Sandor Benkoe, who continues to coach him today.

Eric’s work blends refined technique with emotional resonance. His style transcends conventional eroticism: each image is conceived as an homage to the beauty, presence, and individuality of the female figure. He seeks to reveal without exposing, to suggest rather than show, allowing symbols, gestures, light, and shadow to tell a story. For him, photography is a never-ending journey.

Having collaborated with more than one hundred amateur models, Eric considers photography a dialogue - a shared performance where trust, sensuality, and authenticity meet.

The best way to describe his passion is through the words of Richard Avedon: “If a day goes by without my doing something related to photography, it’s as though I’ve neglected something essential to my existence, as though I had forgotten to wake up.”
