going through the clutter
finding a few things from the past that still resonate.
old art work {by the way i found an emotional/space compromise that includes keeping those few high school pieces}, photos of an old ex on some random cd, and art supplies i still want to make something out of.
this piece is from a late-college self portrait shoot {the final product is also below}.
it was the only time i would appear in front of the camera semi-nude {only the tops of my shoulders appeared}, despite all the other students having done {tasteful} self-portrait nudes of some form or another.
i am still shy.
anyway, the sleepy, meandering point i'm trying to make is that i like the way my hand is illuminated. the hand.

I always liked those images, especially the lighting. And I'm not sure that ripping my self-portraits into tiny pieces and collaging them back together really counts as "tasteful,"lol!
Those were very nice photos, I like the poses and the lighting.
On the one hand, it's ok to be shy, just like not everyone likes vanilla, not everyone has to like posing nude. On the other, if it is fear that is holding you back, let go of the fear. You don't have to necessarily take nude photos to get over the fear, it could just be walking around naked in your new home, or even just looking at yourself in the mirror and accepting what you see.
