I love the winter sunlight, her soft tones and low position in the sky make her the ideal companion for my photography but she also lies, terrible chilling lies that make her a tough friend to work with because despite her appearance that whispers a promise of warmth it is merely an illusion, a trick of the light if you will. For even though she glows with good intentions she is weak in the face of her winter companion who tears through her promises and leaves them strewn in its powerful wake. The wind is her invisible nemesis, laughing at her attempts to be anything other than a source of light as it roams the land and feasts on everything in its path with its vicious chilling bite.
I come for the sunshine, her temptation too great to ignore. I worship her undeniable beauty, offering myself to her but her betrayal is swift as the wind paints her lies with chilling strokes across my skin.
*The beautiful scarf (Grey Orgy Bondage Scarf) was sent to me by Age of Reason in exchange for using it in some of my photography.

The shadow grabs my attention. Great use of the scarf!
That is a gorgeous scarf – but what it’s hiding is even more gorgeous 🙂

I love the shadows here, love the movement the scarf and the wind toying with it gives. I also have goosebumps as your words make me imagine how cold it must have been playing in the winter’s sun when you took the shot. Wonderful image, Molly

This is absolutely breathtaking! That golden light is amazing on the grass and capturing the edge of your silhouette. It does deceive, looking all warm and fiery when in fact it was probably freezing! Your words are really lovely as well.
Wonderfully clever . . . and gorgeous . . . photograph again Molly!
And the name of that scarf sounds very intriguing!!!

Lovely scarf and silhouette! We’ve had some nice sunshine here with absolutely bitter temps, no way you’re catching me outside naked 🙂

Love this one—both the words and image! “For even though she glows with good intentions she is weak in the face of her winter companion who tears through her promises and leaves them strewn in its powerful wake” is positively gorgeous. Love love love! XX-Jade
Your words are beautiful and the photo portrays the winter sun in a very feminine way 🙂

Absolutely beautiful! The shadow is captivating. Well done on controlling the scarf too, the conditions must’ve been perfect so it didn’t fly away or drop!
I love the coyness of this photo. We know you are nude but we don’t really see anything. We see shape and shadow and the sun kissing your lovely behind. You always share such wonderful photos.

Such a rich, warm image. The colours are so stunning.
[…] cold right now. The skin-tingling winter sun of a few days back has given way to the damp grey that characterises a lot of British winters. But […]
