Michael Culhane (aka Solus Photography) – Into the Light (2012)

Culhane’s body of work is never (as in not ever) going to be something I’ll celebrate. He does manage some crazy great skin tone on occasion, I will give him that.

The skin tone here isn’t anything to write home about but the picture is damn exquisite–her pose, his pose, the use of space, the way the light falls off all ‘round them.

Plus, I love photos where hetero couples are presented in flagrant delicto and it’s the dude who is fully open laid out for all to see and the woman is strategically positioned so that she remains obscured.
