B&W. I would have pulled back slightly. The pose is a little awkward, so a bit less crop might have helped. Pretty set, though. The first shot is my
favourite.

If i was allowed to get that close to a pretty girl, i'm gona get close.

Aha! The PDML flushes out another pervert!   Like me...     :-)

Welcome, Davy J, rocking school bus driver.

Last year, at the SF airport, while waiting in the lounge, some guy was wearing an outlandish outfit. I was bored, so decided to make use of his apparel. I chose the most attractive woman standing, a long haired blonde model type, or perhaps a very young executive. Very nice clothes and accessories.

Walked over to her and engaged her in conversation about this dude's choice of clothes. She was responsive, and friendly, great smile, green eyes. We talked for about 5 minutes about travel, photography, her outfit, shoes, etc. As we talked, I noticed that 90% of the other men in the room were looking at us. A fat old man wearing cargo shorts and a T-shirt sporting a 4 day growth of grey beard, chatting it up with a woman that few if any men would have the nuts to talk to. So we talked about that as well. She remarked that she sees it all the time. Everyone looking, no one approaching.

They announced the boarding of our flight. She smelled delightful as I followed her on to the plane. And that was that. She sat in first class with it's comfy wide leather seats, Joe over the wing on the isle hoping that the center seat would remain empty.

Having worked with plenty of models and aspiring models in my most active fashion and product shooting days in SF and Phoenix in the early 70s, I know that these lovely creations are just like you or me. Saddled with the social disability of being gorgeous, they have just as hard a time relating as my type, and welcome interaction with someone who is not out to take advantage. They are allowed to relax, and I have my ego kicked up a notch. Symbiosis.
