Or have we surprised her? Again we are taken to Playboy's New York apartment (existing only in the studio) to showcase an outstanding Playmate. I love how the Classic era of centerfolds is recalled by this composition. We find two doors making strong side verticals with the Playmate in the center. This basic form has been used many times before. Janine's left leg is crossed "just so" and we get a lovely curve that starts at her left shoulder and ends somewhere out of the frame, yet we miss nothing important: a great way to treat this figure. I also love her "Oh, it's you!" expression. This is not a bad one to find on any naked woman. The deep-enough-to-get-lost-in red lipstick is the perfect accent. So what's not to like? The background. Sorry guys, in a straight on shot as close as this the background looks as genuine as a Ukrainian three-dollar bill. It's not the backdrop's fault. In a couple of Janine's feature shots it's used as it should be, as a distant and minor addition to the picture.
