Nekkid Pictures!
Apr. 2nd, 2003 02:22 pmHere's a few questions I grabbed from The Lioness,
elisem.
Have you ever been asked to pose nekkid? Yep!
Have you done so? Yep!
How did you like the pictures? I liked them, but they didn't do what I expected them to do around my self-image.
Did you feel the same way about your body before and after the photography? Sort of, I discovered that many people didn't think I had posed naked because (although I didn't wear any clothes in the picture) the picture did not show my genitalia. I wonder if I would feel differently if the pictures did show my penis. I'm not sure. I may need to try posing nude again. In any case, it wasn't the transformational experience that I wanted. Basically, I liked the picture, but the picture didn't seem to be me. There are only a few pictures of me that feel like me. I generally don't like pictures of me. Because they don't match up to what I think I look like. I don't like to hear recordings of my voice for the same reasons.
Do you like looking at or taking pictures of people? I like looking at pictures of other people. Especially naked pictures. :-)
Do you like having your picture taken? Not really.
And is there a picture of you that you save? One in particular, I mean, that follows you wherever you live or work? There are two that I'm fond of, one taken of me at the Southern Barbecue in in Carbondale IL. During my college days. Another is one taken by my sweetie, Carol. I find it interesting that in both of them I'm wearing a hat.
