… the single hottest thing about this picture. Why? Because it’s hot. And we just can’t decide (and yes, this is something we’ve spent a considerable amount of time discussing).
Help us solve this swoony mystery and we’ll buy you a pair of Hunger Games tickets at your local theater. Awesome, right?
P.S.
Feel free to consider this a picture prompt and post in the comments. You know, just sayin.
Aaaaand go.

I think the hottest part of the picture is his hand. It is like it could be lifting his shirt up to spur the girl on, or perhaps it lifted up while he is making a move to cover her hand and help her decide what to do next… 😉
Janet says
I'd have to say the hottest part of the picture is the plaid on plaid of his shirt and boxers, coupled with the little bit of skin popping out…
Essie says
The hottest part is the fact that he is clearly in an uncomfortable position, lounging next to her, unable to fully stretch out. He doesn't have the space to recline, but he has to be as close to her as he can. And she is obviously sitting up, nowhere near as vulnerable as he is. He is literally exposing his belly to her, letting her do what she will.
It's kind of submissive of him. Very hot.
Ashley says
I think it's the camera. I see it as a catalyst for the touching in the picture. I'm not good with words by any means, but in my mind I see them as young teens getting to know each other. He is an avid photographer, and he decides to invite her on a photoventure. He's sitting down for a good shot and she decides to sit down next to him and one thing leads to another…..So yes, I stick with the camera 🙂
Courtney says
The fact that they're not rushing; there's no urgency and it's kind of beautiful 🙂 The softness and sensuality of the image conveys their feelings of love for each other. It gives me goosebumps just thinking about it!
Lo says
Yes! It's so sweetly subtle. Ahhhhh
Lo says
You are good! I agree! I totally think it's about the camera too!!
Lo says
Christina and I read your comment and were all, "YEAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" Holy hannah.
Lo says
YES! BOXERS! See! this is why we can't decide. Too many awesome details. All subtle.
Lo says
Seriously tho. What IS it about hands?? I mean, I know the answer but jeez. Wow.
Bethie says
They sat there in conpaniable silence watching the people walk around the fountain. He smiled as a little girl giggled after getting splashed. Next to her, a man paused while talking on his phone, and the dog on the leash attatched to his arm took the pause to scratch behind its ear. The sight of the dog scratching had him absentmindedly reaching down to scratch an itch on his stomach, real or imagined, he didn't know. He paused when he heard the sharp intake of breath next to him. His hand froze, and he looked up to see her looking down at the exposed section of skin he had revealed when he pushed up his shirt.
She looked down at the pale skin that she just couldn't tear her eyes away from. She had been watching him watch them. His eye always seeking out the picture even when his camara lay at his side. He didn't notice her watching him, until he revealed a bit of temptation that was just too much. Before she could stop herself, she slowly reached out her hand and ghosted it over the naked flesh. She just let her hand ghost over him, not touching, but close enough to feel the heat of him. Her pinky grazed against the tip of the middle finger of his hand that was frozen mid-scratch.
She slowly raised her eyes to his, pulled her hand back into her lap, and returned her gaze to the world around them, her outward calm belaying the chaos that was raging in her mind.
P.S. No tickets necessary. I've already got mine!
Tristina says
To me, based on how she's sitting, it's like she's looking away and her hands are distractedly touching him. Maybe she's daydreaming on this Fall day (jackets). I envision his head back, maybe eyes closed, just focusing on the warmth of her body next to his and her fingers tracing idle circles on his skin…and his fingers drift towards hers.
It's sensual, intimate. A really lovely moment.
amber says
Well I would say for Christina it's the blue nail polish!!
I think it's.hot because his hand could easily go straight into his boxers from where it's at!!!
Have fun tonight!
Christina says
GO BETHIE!!!!!!!
Christina says
yes yes yes, love that she's distractedly touching him. Awesome, tristina.
Christina says
haha EXACTLY. And I think it's Tiffany blue which makes it double win.
Mom says
Christy, just wanted to say " I love you" & am so very proud of you!!
Christina says
AWWWWW, I love you mom! And how much do I love that you commented on the one post where I'm being a piglet.
Abney says
To me, the hottest thing about this picture is the little bit of skin peeking out above his boxers, (unggg love the boxers btw) and the placement of their hands, how they're kind of touching. So sweet <3
Toni says
I'd say it's that tiny triangle of exposed skin in the absolute best position, composition wise. It draws the eye right to that precious spot first.
Then you see the way her finger lingers there and his being so close, total hotness. Speaks volumes of anticipation of desire and want and perhaps even a little need.
Victoria says
Where to start? I'd have to say the first thing that catches my eyes is the bit of skin on his stomach showing. It makes me want to see more, see what that plaid shirt is hiding. Then it's the subtle touching of the fingers. It's almost as if he raised his shirt up on purpose, knowing that he'd get her attention. My eyes are then drawn to the boxes and the dark washed jeans for some reason. There's also the camera which initially I think he's been taking photos of her, but I could also picture him taking pictures of his surrounding.
Steph says
I think the hottest part of the picture is the way his fingertips are barely touching hers… Almost as if he is instinctively reaching out to her as she touches him so intimately in a place only his hand has ever been. He wants to feel what she's feeling, know what she's thinking. And he wants to touch her secret places, too. Right after he captures it on film.
Preet @ A Written Rh says
I think the hottest part of this picture(after staring at it for a few minutes) is that his hands seem caught off guard. Like he's a confident person because he seems to be lifting his shirt slightly on his own, but it surprised when the girl traces her fingers on his bare skin. Her hand seems a little more unsure, so she could be less confident and that surprises him more hence him gripping his camera tighter. Yeah, you're right there's a lot! Also, no tickets needed…I just wanted to comment on the fun.
Mia says
I think the thing that makes HANDS so powerful is the way they can make you feel….loved, electric, passion. In this picture, it seems like an innocent beginning. A taking it to the next step, getting to know you better touch. Those are the most powerful because of what is next to come when two people feel this way about each other. He's sure of himself in that she wants the same thing he does. The camera might just kink things up…..
Kassiah says
I think the hottest part of this picture is that their fingers are just touching. And he's. gripping. the. camera.
Also, GO BETHIE! lol
