Ah,. but there's ~lots~ going on up there. You just can't see it is all. That's the space above the couch where her head would be were she standing. To me it emphasizes the fact that she's playfully resting her chin on the top of the couch. The space "up there" rather suggests her body position which is hidden by the couch, again emphasizing her playful attitude. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
