Common camera framing
Side profileClose-up
Description: Both partners lie on their sides, the penetrating partner behind the receiving partner (nested like stacked spoons), entering from the rear.
Variations: Receiving partner's top leg raised for access; the lateral coital position is a closely related side-lying variant. Low-exertion, so common as a slow or resting position.
On camera: Typically side profile; the nested silhouette is the signature framing.
AI design considerations: Two side-lying figures offset along the body axis; heavy limb occlusion between them.
