Perhaps more evocative of a Nixter for me but that's hardly a problem. An easy 10 for me.

I've only just got the social commentary here Kevin. Well thought out. Given the message, the focus is exactly where it needs to be.

Thought provoking.

The brow furrow/thread is pure genius. The pov/perspective on you is unusual and highly effective.

Great concept and much better executed than you would have us believe!

I never tire of seeing inside your head and this time we are able to do that quite literally!

Well deserved Blue. Super image. Other than the fabulous model, I particularly like how the selective blurring of the rope gives depth to the image.

Very impressive edit.

The conceptual articulation with your earlier shot was also appreciated.

I thank you for your generous vote but I certainly don't see any 'lesbian thing' going on here. It's just an extension of one figure nude into two figure nudes - it was the continuation of form, and in this case function, we were after. It's a tricky modelling feat to give great shapes under load like this. Some from this short set had more interesting angled poses but this one had the best 'lightbulb' hand and gave emphasis to the challenge theme. I could have done a similar shot clothed - it would have been different but probably still effective; it's just not how it worked out within the wider set, but I don't think the nudity (within the depicted context) says anything about sexual orientation. Why would it?


You're welcome for the vote. It wasn't generous. I vote on quality of the image and this one is well-done, as usual for you, Paul. :D

The lesbian comment was meant to be a bit humorous... because I would never get naked and ask another naked woman to change a light bulb with me. Ha!

But, now that you've started the conversation, and others have joined in, I've studied it more in view of your words.

If you take these women and flip the image in your mind... with the women now lying down on the far wall, in the exact same positioning, and they're horizontal instead of vertical on the bed or whatever they're standing on now... THEN what does that say? I'd say that two women in that position were being sexual together. Two women being sexual together makes them at least lesbian (perhaps bi-sexual... or whatever else people call themselves these days). Right?

I don't actually care one iota about their sexual preferences... They do appear to me to be two women in sexual positions alone together. Whatever that makes them be... ?? :D

Anyway... carry on... I didn't mean to offend with my silly quip. It's a silly challenge topic and I was just being silly in response.


I wasn't at all offended Lydia, thanks for your comments too! I always enjoy the perspective you share on my nude images.myou make me think. Sometimes I write what I think.

Thanks again

Paul
