Out of ideas this weekend, I tried a last-minute photo on the couch using a favorite old blanket as a backdrop. The sun coming through the window turned out to be kind of interesting as well. I’m not sure if the shadows and the stripes work together or compete. I do like the color. I tried it in black and white but even though that called out the similarities in the shadow stripes and the yarn stripes, there’s something about the color version (hmm, color, perhaps?) that I prefer.

This is lovely! It makes me think of basking on a blanket in the hot summer sunshine…and that makes me happy! Especially when it’s been so long since any basking was done! Xx

Lovely . . . and I have a blanket-beach mat with just those stripes!!!

See, the photographer in me wants to turn that blanket the other way to run across the image, with your arms….. No idea how that would look but when I look at the image it is the first thing I would want to try out.

Ah, I didn’t even think of that. But you’re right, that could be a cool effect. I might have to try using this blanket again in the future.

I know it’s already been said, but this is really lovely. The happy colors in the blanket, the sunshine falling over you just right. You look beautiful and relaxed and happy, which makes it all the lovelier.

Thanks Malin! I was pretty relaxed. It was a long weekend and the sun was so warm, it felt good just to sit for a while.

Hahah- stripes. Pleasantly misleading, I was already bracing myself.

I knew that would get at least a few people wondering 🙂

Beautiful, I think I could lay there with you in the sun.

It was definitely warm and cozy.

The stripes created by the light work very well with the stripes of the blanket. Great image.

I love how open and natural this picture feels with the sunlight streaming in, your arms open wide and your beautiful nude body.
