I love how you dragged the cloth behind her. It adds a lot more to the image for me. Just stunning!

Yeah, that's why I always ask Marcus (and give credit) if I do use anything from him.

He gets some amazing poses out of these girls.

I was gonna make some silly comment about how wonderful her tits are, but I read someone's comment bellow about breaking up. Interesting how personal mood is everything when it comes to art interpretation, and great how people can relate to the things an artist creates.

P.S.: Still, her tits are awesome, any pin-up fan's dream.

MaxRogue In reply to mjranum [2008-03-21 23:04:01 +0000 UTC]

LOL, being a girl I think my busty girlfriends would laugh at the idea (then proceed to do it) if I happened to ask any of them to do such a thing, but now that you mention it, I believe it must be quite a risky hobbie to be a male photographer who takes pictures of nude women hahahaha. I know, us, women, are so very touchy about EVERYTHING. But, then again, we can also be incredibly adorable.

Amazing..........I don't know if you know about the concept of 'Sizdah'.......this is extremely appropriate and inappropriate at the same time for this concept.

mjranum In reply to shangshaptak [2008-03-20 13:20:45 +0000 UTC]

No, I don't. Never heard of it before, even. What is 'Sizdah'??

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

shangshaptak In reply to mjranum [2008-03-20 15:16:47 +0000 UTC]

It's the final stage and posture that an Islamic person goes through, at the completion of each prayer. This is the exact setup.......sitting exactly in this posture on a long piece of cloth...and looking over both sides of their shoulders, right to left, praying peace for all the world.......that's why it's appropriate.
Inappropriate for obvious reasons........but this is the first word that came to my mind after I saw this picture.

visit us down south. we have 5 stations between Greensboro and Raleigh, NC that play nothing but good rock - from 60's blues, to 80s hair metal.

...but that song def. captured it for me

I had the rather odd experience of almost meeting Eddie Van Halen when I was in college. My then girlfriend's husband was a music critic and wrote a book on the band and knew them pretty well. I went over to their place one day to meet her and there was this guy on the couch playing some really cool flamenco guitar stuff on an acoustic. I waved, he nodded, kept playing, and I left. It wasn't until I was downstairs that I realized who it was. Uh, uh, uh...
