Variation 11 of 13 -- Silk Underfoot
Female feet Australian, silk rug from Qum, Iran.
A minor variation of the most viewed in the sequence, but in a different orientation. I thought it was to be the last, but I keep finding more...
I have gone on at length about the benefits for photography of human flesh afforded by even expanses of window light such as used here. The shading in this one especially suggests to me an almost tangible three-dimensionality.
In taking the photograph I was intent mainly on the overall composition, and only during post-processing did I become aware of the range of details of various kinds for the eye to wander over
The curvatures in the left foot makes me think of the quotation attributed to Leonardo da Vinci:
The human foot is a masterpiece of engineering and a work of art.
