Accidental Art

 

Sometimes porn becomes art without intent. This is a promo image for Kink.com shoot 14260, featuring Mark Davis and Audrey Rose. I cropped it in tighter because I thought the dynamic

between Mark and Audrey was the real meat of the image. Mark looms behind Audrey like a

Titan, his hand raised as if in farewell, though I'm pretty sure he's gonna spank her ass because

this is bondage porn, after all. It's all about the dramatic lighting and the intense expression Audrey wears combined with Mark's casual pose and thoughtful expression, the way the light hits Mark's arm and Audrey's back, and the way the image creates depth with a clearly defined background (the wall) middle ground (Mark's body) and foreground (Audrey's body, which also draws you in with the ladder angled slightly so that Audrey's shoulder is slightly closer to the viewer than her butt). 

This is art! And bondage porn. Sometimes they are the same.

Here's the same image, uncropped, so you can decide for yourself if cropping helps.

It's still quite powerful, IMHO.
