Qeshtara

  • Photographer
    Catalin Arcu

Qeshtara, the Truth-Whisperer - A celestial being caught between divine obedience and forbidden truth. Shot with dramatic lighting to emphasize the contrast between her angelic crown and dark wings, symbolizing her fall from grace. The golden halo and ornate crown were carefully positioned to catch and reflect light, while the massive black wings required precise positioning and post-processing to achieve the ethereal effect. Classical portrait techniques meet dark fantasy storytelling. Pure photography work with no AI involved.
