Jim Duvall presents “2010-2614”
The graceful position and flowing hair on this beautiful model, clean rigging and interesting lighting are important elements that combine to make this image another fine example of the art of shibari. Notice, this model is suspended only by the rope around her thigh and bent leg. This is a difficult rigging construction that is used only with experienced shibari models. This is a very nice image.

Stefano Laforgia presents “Old memories”
This beautiful picture was taken during a Hanami celebration, where people enjoy the beauty of cherry blossoms. Appropriately, this lovely model is wearing a cherry red kimono with excellent ropework during a nice partial suspension. This is a wonderful example of people enjoying their shibari in a clean, clear, fresh air outdoor environment. I’m sure it brings back not only old, but also very good memories for them.
