to me it seems as though it conveys hesitation. she's weighing her options, analysing the decision. because of the one shoe still on the foot, to me it seems as though she has not quite 'decided' on her course of action.

i love the sepia though, it makes the photo so much more romantic.

hmmm...well interpret as you wish. i was going for the idea of an invitation though. oh, i love the sepia too. i had a black and white version up as well, but i deleted it. the sepia has so much more impact. thank you

diamonds-in-the-rain In reply to obskuritease [2009-07-13 20:12:52 +0000 UTC]

hee hee, so what exactly was your interpretation? your right about the sepia, black and white can sometimes give a cold atmosphere

well, just that she's inviting him to join her and take the last step in taking her shoe off and getting on with the proceedings

HEARTofTREASON [2009-06-25 01:48:33 +0000 UTC]

i absolutely LOVE this!! The sepia tones, the sun-kissed lighting, the scatters clothing, the pose, the cropping & just the concept in general.

& the quote is just perfect! Awesome job!!

This is indeed inviting. I prefer this in sepia tone. Unlike 'Sakura-no-rana' I believe it seems like before making love because she is still wearing one shoe, as if saying 'You do the honours' I really like the atmosphere. The objects are very nicely placed. Lovely!

I prefer the sepia tone as well. You've got it right. I was aiming for the 'before' moment, the gentle shyness of an invitation. Thank you very much (:

Love the picture.
The sepia tones, the lazy feel, the smoothness.

Yes, that's exactly the right word, 'smooth'. Thank you very much.

Sakura-no-rana [2009-06-17 00:15:14 +0000 UTC]

it seems like it is "after" something... i really like the perspective and the point of view. And the photo have a lot of thoughts that can go trough your mind. like we've done it and now?? or come!!! or i don't know, really like it

Thank you very much. I wasn't going for the 'after' feeling actually. I was aiming for 'before', but you've got the idea (:
