Simple life

Honestly, I don't know where to begin with this photo. It is so chocked full of right that it's nearly impossible to pick a starting point. I suppose what first caught my eye were the colors - beautiful, golden and brisk. Even the darkest colors have a sense of life & that seems rare for some photos. Next, the flow of lines is so intense, it reminds me how truly artistic nature can be - we can't even compete! Lastly, the model. The hair, the pose, the glance. They all compliment one another and create both memorable elegance and vivid life without disturbing the soothing setting. The held flowers are a nice, delicate touch which adds a hint of gentle color too.
