Yet another interesting composition Julian. The contrast between light & dark plays tricks with the eyes, the DOF adding depth (is the dark in front, light behind, ore the reverse of that?).
The model was sitting with her left arm on her right knee. The key was in front of her and to her left about head hight, and the fill was above her on the right a couple of feet above and behind her head.
We see her right knee, in the BG, just visible between her left arm and her breast.
The POV is 4/5 behind her from her left side.
The shallow DOF is thanks to a Hassy HC Macro 120m at f4.
Better?
🤣
Though most of my work is done in camera this one was cropped a bit so as to not be NSFW.
If you think it is ok to post the FF version here let me know. If not I'll PM it to you.

Yep. 😂
Thank you Alan!
Thanks for the clarification......

Now you have described it I have worked my way to getting a better sense, would love to see an uncropped version to fully understand.
I saw the left, shaded side as a shoulder/arm. Even with the description I find the image mesmerizing and to steal Chris's words, 'ambiguous'.

Love this post and the caption especially. This is mesmerizing stuff. Would love to use the caption for one of my IG posts.
Incredible capture man.
So stoked you like it. Thanks Thomas.
Really love this one, Julian! As Alan says, totally ambiguous and all the better for it. You've got to put these in your portfolio.
Thanks TWOJ!
What do you mean 'ambiguous'?
I thought the aim was.... abstract?! 😂
