 Wow, I think this is my most commented shot so far. That's me, and it was a 'for fun' out-take for the 'High contrast' entry. The camera on the tripod was looking straight up between me and the window and I pushed out my belly as much as I could (shame I could do it this well-->I'll go on a diet). Sorry, it did not cross my mind to shave other places than my face, and I had my pants on...

Well, I have to admit, it's grotesque but I like grotesque.

I have never considered a hairy belly feminine... In this point I have to respectfully disagree. Otherwise I really appreciate the comment.

very very good idea, great perspective and lovely black and white, the only thing that I don't like is that the skin isn't shaved 9
