The camera sits low and looks up: a single girl stands on sunlit stone paving, seen from below in a cowboy shot that crops her at mid-thigh, so the pale sky fills the top third behind her shoulders and her figure reads tall against it. She is turned about twenty degrees off the lens, weight sunk into her right hip and her left foot placed a half-step forward, toes angled out; her right arm is raised high and drawn slightly across, palm open, the wrist flexed as though she has just let go of something or is catching the edge of the air, while her left hand rests loosely against her skirt, fingers spread on the pleated fabric. Her head tilts to her left and her chin dips, so she looks down into the lens from under her brow: one eye open and bright, the other narrowed a fraction, lips pressed in a faint close-mouthed smile at one corner only. The wind is coming from below and behind her, lifting the short ends of her long hair sideways past her cheek and pressing the puffed sleeves of her blouse back against her upper arms; the ribbon at the back of her head streams out at shoulder height, the tails straight and separate, riding the same gust. Everything she wears is white on white, separated only by light: a high-collared white blouse with layered puffed sleeves and a plain buttoned placket, a white pleated skirt that snaps and hinges in the wind with the pleat shadows reading as fine grey teeth, white knee-high socks and white flat shoes. Her arms are bare from the short sleeve cuff to the wrist, both ears are bare with nothing at the lobes, and her wrists are bare, the skin clean and unbroken. The sun is low and behind her right shoulder, one single source; it rims the top of her bowed head, the ribbon and the raised forearm in a warm line and throws her face into soft, open shadow that the pale paving bounces back up into her chin and cheekbones. Her cast shadow stretches toward the viewer and to the left, compressed and foreshortened by the low camera, and the shadow of her raised hand falls separately on the stones, its fingers larger and softer than the real hand above it. The palette is chalk white, warm ivory, cool shadow grey and a wash of pale blue sky, nothing else admitted. Quiet, buoyant.
