Please don’t try this at home… (3 of 3)

Please don't try this at home... (3 of 3)

This one is special. Trixie (MM#1534372) and I had wanted to enter another Zivity contest. This one was "what I wanted to be." Since I know her through prowrestling, it was kinda a gimmie. We went to a friend’s training facility and shot this set. A different kinda glamour. Dark, dingy, it was 8 degrees outside and the room was unheated. But if you love something, you make sacrifices. The full set was posted to Zivity yesterday but this is a sample.

I was actually quite worried about this one, given how gritty and down and dirty it was. Everything from lighting to processing was different from the kind of stuff I normally do. But so far, it’s been pretty well received. So anyway, go check it out.

Day 1266 of 365 4 lyf. Borrowed some wrestling masks for a photoshoot. You know, I’ve been wrestling for like seven years now but I’ve never worn a mask for match. Not really anyway, I wore one for one show when i was in disguise, but took it off before I did anything. I don’t…

Day 1159 of 365 4 lyf. I am moved by fancies that are curled Around these images, and cling: The notion of some infinitely gentle Infinitely suffering thing. Booze, sex, prayer, whatever gets you through the night. Is it a problem that the basis for my entire sense of morality is a comic book from…

Day 1102 of 365 Again. Lately I’ve been posting "wistful career change decisions" to my Twitter account. Just little flights of fancy that it occurs to me I might like to do for the rest of my life. Tonight I had one that I think i’d be cut out for. I think I want to…

Day 1037 of 365 Again. Mav wasn’t available to take a self-portrait today, so I, the Masked Man, have decided to step in. For wherever there is trouble the Masked Man will be there. Of course my identity must remain anonymous, you understand. 365 days

Day 363 of 365 days. A lot of people have asked me if Jack Scoresby is really dead after yesterday’s picture. Of course not. He’s alive and well. Just shorter than he used to be. See… he’s right here. Strangely, after taking his head and absorbing his power, my photo style has changed a little…

Day 168 of 365 days. Some days I just don’t feel like getting out of bed. Today was one of them. One of the nice things about this whole unemployment experience is that it gives me a break from my career. For the record I hate computers. I hate the computer industry. I hate working…

Day 139 of 365 days. Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Maverick knows. The creative process is an interesting thing. I actually set out to make a black and white with this shot. I placed my lights so that I’d have nice heavy darks and hard contrast with my backdrop.…

Day 63 of 365 days. I didn’t really have a good idea for today until I saw Rachel Sian mention her mini-challenge, and realized, "Wow, it is Friday the 13th!" She said she wanted us to portray "bad luck" in some manner. Well, I figure this is about as bad luck as you’re likely to…
