Lia Melia Thank you for the comments; yes, Pavel, no head or arms! I like to look at a body like that; it could depersonalise, but I'm not sure it does; the body speaks it's own language.
Your English is fine Ekaterina, thank you for troubling to express yourself so well.

Iliana Tosheva As I mentioned some time ago, Lia, your 'bodies' speak a language of their own! What an amazingly perfect match for 'His'! We can hide behind our facial expressions as much as we want but we feel through our bodies. And what could be more vulnerable and beautiful than a naked human body?! You've rendered that brilliantly.
