Ruth, Working Hard

On Tuesday, I was working with Ruth, and we spent most of the time on longer poses. These can be hard - though this might look easy, try doing it for an hour:

After that, I took a break to go out for a smoke and run the dogs for a few minutes; when I came back in Ruth was quietly relaxing. Now there's something wonderfully expressive about the natural positions people take when they are quietly absorbed in their own world - so I tossed out what I had planned for the rest of the session and aked if we could go with this.  Surprisingly, she agreed :)
