To: pml1@yahoogroups.com From: Mark Tomlonson Date: Thu, 12 Jun 2003 10:36:08 -0400 Subject: [PML1] CC: Denise Michele In Denise Michele's centerfold (April 1976) we've interrupted her in the process of changing clothes. It's easy to imagine that Denise is our boon companion (in both senses of the word) on a delightful tropical vacation. This is a pose that's extremely flattering to Denise, especially from her navel up. It really shows off her breasts well. The colors used throughout compliment and echo her complexion, and the lighting adds to the "skin you gotta touch" feeling. A couple of tricky things were done very well. Denise is standing in front of a window, and the line formed by the top of the window cuts both Denise and the picture at a very good place. I've seen several photos (and centerfolds for that matter) where this was not accomplished as well. The other tricky thing is the way she's holding her skirt. It is such a natural, unposed look. It's easy to suspend disbelief and think we've actually caught Denise at a unique moment in time. But there are a couple of not so good things as well. From Denise's navel down the pose is not quite as successful (but close), and the ladder provides a bit of unwelcome fussiness.
