From a low angle near the ground, a single young woman stands in a sunlit summer field, seen from below so the sky and the tops of the rye fill the upper frame. She is caught mid-stretch: balanced on her left leg, right leg lifted and bent behind her at the knee, her weight rolled onto the ball of her left foot, the long olive-green skirt swinging back and twisting with the motion. Both arms are flung up and out, her right arm stretched high with the fingers spread wide as if grabbing at the light, her left forearm crossed loosely above her brow. Her blonde hair is pulled into a high ponytail at the crown, the tail swept sharply sideways by the wind, a few fine strands whipping across her cheek; her blue eyes are wide and lifted toward the sun, mouth open in a bright delighted grin, cheeks flushed warm. Her face is turned three-quarters toward the lens with the strong straight bridge of her nose catching a hard ridge of light down its length. She wears a white linen blouse with generously puffed sleeves, the cuffs pushed to the elbows and the cloth creasing at the shoulder from her raised arms, laced shut at the throat; over it a heavy brown wool bodice pulls snug across her chest and waist, its seams straining slightly with the stretch; the coarse olive-green skirt is gathered thickly at the hip and flares below her knees. A pale cloth headscarf is tied at the back of her head beneath the ponytail, its knotted tails fluttering. She stands knee-deep in ripe rye, the stalks pressing apart around her shins and bending away from her as the wind combs through them in long running waves; a few loose grains and chaff drift in the air. Behind her the field recedes in gold bands to a dark tree line and a wide pale-blue sky; low on the left a distant wooden well frame and a fence line break the horizon. The sun sits low behind her right shoulder, wrapping her hair and the fuzz of her sleeves in a hot rim of light, flaring a soft lens bloom there, while her face and the front of the bodice sit in warm bounce light with deep shadow gathering under her chin, beneath the lifted arm and inside the folds of the skirt; her shadow falls short and dark into the rye at her feet. Palette held to white linen, brown wool, olive and ripe grain gold against blue sky, with the blonde and the sun glare as the brightest accents. Joyous, sun-drenched.
