The woman left side is looked at the lens. She is conscious of the photographer who is take taking a picture of her. This conscious makes the picture feel like a real one scene. We can feel her heart inside her. In other words, we can feel not only attractive shape visual, but also the sexuality.

It makes feel something strange.These photographs are almost the same scene.A woman soaks in a bathtub.But compare with these pictures. We can project the truth of a subject through a photograph. Araki Nobuyoshi can draw maximum possibility of a photograph through this ability to project his subjects feelings.
