I don't know the real manga but I like the style of both characters. Their guitars didn't produce any sound but maybe had special powers...

What a stunning association ! Cosplayers at Kyoto Manga Museum. Portraits 50mm, focus set on the weapons.

Were they about to shoot the photographer...or just strangle him ?

What a nice butterfly! She is not only pretty but she is also very talented to pose in front of a camera. She was moving naturally and I only had to press the shutter.

What is cosplay ?

What a stunning character! I set the focus on her "blue eyes" and "blond hair". The cigarette is fake as it's not allowed to smoke at the Manga Museum...

Stunning characters! They look scaring but actually both girls were so gentle and easy-going. They held such a good pose for this portrait.

Kyoto Manga Museum, April 2010

Is she Japanese ? Yes, she is a cosplayer, costume player. Cosplays regularly takes place at Kyoto Manga Museum. I am always impressed how Cosplayers reproduce the characters of their favorite Manga to the single detail. Cosplayers are always friendly, creative and they love taking pictures. For this portrait, I set the focus on her "blue eyes" to obtain this nice lightening.
