Common camera framing
Description: As cowgirl, but the receiving partner faces away from the supine penetrating partner, presenting their back and rear to them (and often to camera).
Variations: Upright, leaning back onto the hands, or leaning forward toward the penetrating partner's feet. Anal variant uses the same arrangement.
On camera: The rear-facing orientation makes it a standard penetrating-partner-POV and rear-framing position.
AI design considerations: Same stacked geometry as cowgirl with the top figure mirrored front-to-back; the top figure's face is turned away.
