+ A Touch Of Modesty by John down under

Adelaide, Australia

Molly returns for the end of C9 to show off her colourful new bikini made from Chux cleaning cloths. ;o)
We ran out of blue cloths and had to use a green one to finish the job. We didn't tie them behind. Molly was just leaning on them to keep them in place, so it's good that she stayed in place for a few shots.

Thanks everyone.
Claudio, it was a dash late in the piece to make it happen, but we got there in the end. This is more or less what I had in mind from the outset, although I had envisaged maybe having more triangular 'cups'.
Niamh, I'm glad your experience with Molly here didn't induce labour! I wouldn't want to be responsible for that. This was a team effort with Jenny helping me to make the bikini from Chux cleaning cloths. They were all mid/light blue except for the one that is green here, which was a lighter aqua colour.
Assar, STEADY!! ;o)
Cheers, John

Grrrrr. Now this is a classy pin up shot and Molly is a real hottie. Give her a bone from me.

Assar

LOL!LOL!LOL!LOL! When I saw this and read Claudio's joke about the book cover I just laughed until I got stomach ache! Hilarious concept and great composition - I love the expression on Molly's face - half "come hither" and half "supermodel boredom". Does you wife know why you wanted to borrow her bikini?!! ;)))) ROTFL!!!!

Hi John,

On one end I'm really glad you keep finding creative ways to include Molly in every challenge ... but Molly must really love you if she speaks to you again after this . LOL

In all honesty I have to say I was expecting something worst when you told me you plans, and I think you pulled it off with enough grace. Photographically I like the way you "filled the frame" and the pose of your model. I can see this becoming the cover for a dog's book (inside joke ;-)
