Nude Conversation.
Gelatin-silver photograph on Agfa Classic MCC III VC FB photographic paper, image size 24.6cm X 19.6cm, from a 8x10 Tmax 400 negative exposed in a Tachihara 810HD triple extension field view camera fitted with a Fujinon-W 300mm f5.6 lens. Signed, titled, and stamped verso.

Nice to see the dialogue with the viewer established in such a matter of fact manner, Maris.

The model asked if it was all right to look back at the viewer of the picture, to stare at them the way they might stare at her image. I suggested a facial expression sort of "direct" and "knowing". I think she nailed it!

I have found that there are points for difficulty for a model to 'act normal' in front of a camera when her clothes are all stacked neatly somewhere else.

I like the mature, worldly tone of the girl, also.
