Zinn Painted with Light

Im a big fan of reclining shots both as a model and photographer. They allow for the model to show so much of her body and curves but also allow her to be relaxed and comfortable. This image exudes comfort. I can almost hear her sighing contently. The spot light and subsequent lighting is excellent. They aren't any real harsh shadows and it helps the image flow. My eye is drawn to the light and thus everything around it- which is likely how the model feels. I love the cropping of the shot and the soft colours. The red is bold, but not distracting. The model seems very comfortable with you and it seems like you just happened upon her.

While I feel this isn't entirely original it's because Im thinking of so many paintings and drawings- not photos. I dont see many photos like this that manage to pull it off naturally, and I like that it reminds me of paintings. Sort of blurs the line for me.
