Pritchard Park Downtown Asheville NC. The female form has been missused and mistreated. To appreciate and enjoy the curves as Art is my main goal. The subject of this photo is a doll to the children that come every tuesday evening. In the summer,spring, and fall to hula hoop. Good soul the hula girl~

    I do appreciate all the comments on the pics. I followed rule number 4~This is one of the sweetest girls i know in this town. She organizes hula hooping for children and anyone that would like to get up off their ass.(NO PUN INTENDED)
    If you look close you will see ALOT of people have misinterpreted photography. I still see ALOT of snapshots and people that don't even know rule #4~
    Thanks and Keep Bangin'!

    Rule number 4? Photography has rules? What on earth are you talking about?

  • Ryan McGinnis

    Ryan McGinnis said (4 Nov 2008):

    Ah, I see what you are talking about. But I think what you mean is not that "photography has rules", but rather "the specific philosophy of photography that I subscribe to has an informal list of principles and suggestions". Give me any formalistic or philosophical 'rule' for photography and I can find you a photographer who has taken an incredible picture by breaking it. Give me a set of guidelines like the lomo guidelines and I can find you a ton of photographers who are producing great work by trying to conform to it. :) I know it only seems like a difference in semantics, but it's much deeper than that.

    BTW, that is one hell of a crazy-cool photo -- how in the world a woman has a waist like that is beyond me!

    This is a gorgeous shot of a very lovely woman. And I think its great that you shot her like this. A lot of folks on JPG don't get the female form as art. The female form is very beautiful, and yes, erotic. But if we are talking about photographing a woman's body in an artful way, you have to view the image and respond to it not just from the crotch.

    This is such a great image, I just cant believe I'm looking at it. The lady herself is somethin' else totally.....don't ever think I've seen a body as hot as that. But the image itself and the thought behind it is just as hot. So,so,so very well done Micha, it would have to rate up there with my all time fav's...... hips, shootin', the theme, it all relates so well in more ways than one....and did I mention that prime example of the female form. If this lady is making the kids happy, then I reckon she's making everyone happy. And YES,art...... that definitely is. Again, well done Micah.
