Artwork description:

She was a friend of a friend, a model from Russia. She had never worked underwater before, and I did not expect too much from the first session. She was entering the pool while I was adjusting the camera and taking test shots. I asked her to stop, and took another couple of shots of her beautiful long legs and pink nails.  
It was no surprise that the picture became very popular. Neither was it a surprise when the model became acclaimed and wealthy. Yet, she surprised me last year when she offered to buy out the rights to this picture.
