Shot from above at a steep three-quarter angle, the girl crouches low on a weathered wooden veranda and tilts her face up toward the lens, so the camera sees the crown of her short, choppy, two-tone hair and the upward plane of her face at once. Her hair is cropped close at the jaw and swept back off her brow; the black mass at the crown breaks into brown lengths at the temples, with a single bright red streak running through the bangs that fall across her forehead. Tucked above her left ear sits a large red flower ornament on a dark pin, and a smaller red blossom is pinned into the hair behind it, so the red petals in her hair echo the flowers printed on her garment. She wears a deep indigo-blue yukata cut with a kimono's crossed collar and wide sleeves, the cotton printed all over with a scattered pattern of pale blue water ripples and large blooming red flowers with green leaves; the fabric pulls taut across her shoulder and the obi band sits high at her waist. Her purple eyes are wide and half-lidded at the same time, glancing up past her own brow toward the viewer, and a hot blush floods the tops of both cheeks and the bridge of her nose. One fat sweatdrop beads at her right temple, sliding a short wet track down through the blush. She leans forward over her own knees, one hand pressed flat to her chest where the yukata crosses, fingers curled into the blue cloth, while the other arm hangs loose and the wide sleeve slips off her shoulder to show the bare curve of it. Her weight is all in her toes and the balls of her feet, one heel lifted off the boards. Warm late-afternoon light rakes in from the upper left, laying a long soft shadow from the veranda railing across her thigh and the boards behind her; the sleeve interiors and the shadow under her chin go deep and cool. Behind and below her the veranda boards run off into soft green garden blur. Palette held to indigo blue, red, black-brown and warm skin. Quiet, flustered, summery.
