Day 221 of 365 days.

I had been wanting to do another bodyscaping style pic, and this weeks Class with Dave assignment kind of gave me the excuse to do so. It also meant that I had to go downstairs and lift some before taking the shot, something that I have been seriously neglecting (and my body is suffering for it).

This would be an interactive 365 pic, as I actually took several shots and let people vote on which one I should use. I’m still not sure I chose the right one, but such is life. The other two are here and here.

Tomorrow I have a call back interview with one of the companies that I’ve been talking to that I actually kind of like, so that means I’ll probably take a picture all nice and clean shaven and stuff. Unless I think of something better to do between now and then. I wonder if it would be too weird to walk into a job interview with a camera and say "while we’re doing this, I need to tell you something. I founded an international movement wherein people document their life on the internet every day for a full year, and I was wondering if I could capture this moment for a shot. Thank you, now about my references…"

    This one makes me happiest. Of course, I’m sure all the shots are just happy to be nominated and won’t snipe about the winner at the after party at all.

    thanks for the votes everyone.

    @pi c’s: yeah, seeing all three tattoos (at least partially) is one of the things I really like about this one.

    @Agent Retro: Thank you. I tried. I’m not as straight as I would have preferred to have been.

    @Vashtia: secrets: 1) work out right before the shot to get your muscle all pumped. 2) Have a very good understanding of lighting. 3) Have a very good understanding of post processing.

    @mickeysacks: Well my right shoulder is being gracious about losing. My left shoulder walked out of the ceremony and didn’t even wait for the other awards.

    Oh, yum.

    This one would have gotten my vote, for sure. For sure.

    *might kind of have a thing for backs*

    @jessi.: well, the ladies seem to like this one. That’s for sure. I guess that makes me feel a little better about it. I was totally leaning towards this one.

    I’ve been gone, so I’m late voting… but I think, I mean I’m pretty sure that Mom’s get special treatment & are allowed tardy votes. Anyway, I like this one. And I don’t need a reason, Mom’s are allowed to say "Because I said so!"


    Seen on your photo stream. (?)

    @lrayholly: well, this one seems to have won anyway, so no worries.

  12. March 21, 2007 at 10:13 pm

    Ha, I love your mom!!!!! I like ’em all. Sexy sexy!
