July 14, 2009 11:01am i am so utterly smitten with this image. It reminds me of autumn, that most intoxicating of seasons. The smell and caress of the winds, the exhileration, the sense of joy in life. It's so good to see a beautiful picture that isn't "heavy," that has a sense of wonder and playfulness to it.
Your model is fantastic, the clothes are perfect, and the lighting and location are divine.
This one just jumped off the page at me. By far a favorite.
