"I'll Just Do A Bit Of Cropping !"

Debbi, Sally and Lawrence were sitting up naked in bed in Debbi's hotel room, reviewing the photos on Lawrence's laptop. They had been out to the edge of the desert and also up into the foothills of the mountains. Karim and Ahmed had accompanied them as guides and to ensure there were no problems with any locals stumbling across them while they worked. The locations had been chosen for their isolation as well as for their scenic properties. The girls had taken care of their own makeup since Lawrence wanted to maximise the profit from this commission and avoid unnecessary expense.

Debbi never ceased to be impressed by the quality of Lawrence's work. These shots were for a feature in an upmarket coffee table magazine and the posing was all very tasteful. It was all far removed from pornography. "No posing with your feet up around your ears" he had promised Debbi. But equally, it was to be frank and fearless, so if a frontal shot happened to show a vagina, then show a vagina it would !

"Your bum looks great in this one" Debbi complimented Sally. "So does yours" her friend replied. "Thank you" said Debbi. "I still don't get the concept of these though" Sally decided, regarding a sequence where she and Debbi were wearing Arabic headscarves but were naked from the neck down until their feet, which were encased in hiking boots. "It's all about the contrast" Lawrence explained. The same applied to a sequence where they were twirling parasols, topless but clad from the waist down in full length diaphanous petticoats. "You're supposed to be Victorian lady explorers !"

"So you're happy ?" Debbi asked. "Yes, and I sent proofs to the mag and they're over the moon with them too. I'll just do a bit of cropping but they don't need to be photo-shopped" answered Lawrence. "One last day to enjoy Tangier then ?" said Sally. "Looks like it" Lawrence confirmed. There was a knock at the door. "Who is it ?" yelled Debbi. "Karim" came the reply. Debbi clambered over Sally and out of the bed and bounded naked to the door. "Come in" she invited the startled guide. "Don't look all shocked, you've seen me naked often enough over the last few days" Debbi giggled, climbing back in between Lawrence and Sally.

"Um, I just wanted to know what you wished to do tomorrow before you leave ?" Karim tried to recover his composure. Debbi conferred with Sally. "We'd like to go back to the hammam" she announced decisively. "That should give you and Fatima plenty of time to spread the word and get a good audience up in the balcony" she continued with a cheeky grin. A nonplussed Karim stared back open mouthed. "Oh come on, you didn't think we were that naive did you ?" Debbi teased him. "We weren't so disoriented that we couldn't work out the geography of the courtyard !" Karim began to grin sheepishly. "Told you she wouldn't mind" Lawrence reminded him !
