A redheaded woman stands between two kneeling men whose necks are encircled with two ends of a chain that the woman is holding as leashes above them. All three are naked, with mischievously playful expressions on their faces.
This photograph was sent by Derek Isme. “The woman’s expression is priceless: she’s having a blast!” he wrote, and added that the two guys seem as though they are “submissive and loving it.” Though obviously posed, I do understand how he sees that in this picture.
There is something ethereal in the imperfections of the models in this photograph that I really like. The woman holding the men’s chains doesn’t seem divine, nor does her body remind me of what I often perceive as exhausting Goddess-worship so prevalent in (what are to me tainted) femdom tropes. Similarly, these men have a look more like pixies or other fantastical creatures under her control than actual men. Rather than turn me off, all of these things actually make this image far more relatable to me than it might otherwise have been.
