To: pml1@yahoogroups.com Subject: [PML1] CC: Kelly Burke From: Mark Tomlonson Date: Wed, 24 Dec 2003 09:55:01 -0500 In Kelly Burke's centerfold (June 1966) she's lying by the pool. If we don't ruin it, it looks like she's more than willing to tell the dog to get lost, and it will be just the two of us on the towel. Animals and centerfolds rarely mix, but here it's O.K. The dog doesn't detract from the proceedings. He forms part of the construction, making a high point in the center top of the frame, a point that's also highlighted by a pair of beach balls. Kelly has always represented the Girl Next Door for me. She was one of the first centerfolds I saw when I was old enough to know why men looked at attractive naked women. After almost 40 years, I still find her looks very attractive. It's hard to believe she was a married mother of two when the shots were taken. For the most part the shot is fairly straightforward. The most remarkable thing is the tricks being played in the pose. Her feet are on tiptoe, and Kelly's reclining. This makes her appear shapelier than if she were standing flat-footed, yet a casual viewer is unaware of the effort.
