Paradise: lighting like THIS to a classic B&W photographer like me! Paradise, not lost on me. Sorry, Milton.
That creepy photo to the left? It's one of those portraits hanging on the wall whose eyes follow you everywhere. The sunlight caught it just right. This was my effort to defeat those eyes.
Actually, my photo of Barker with Jack got removed again for that tawdry crotch that showed. Here it is on onexposure: http://www.onexposure.net/?photos=member&memberid=7994&photo=16504
This is a replacement nude, crotch covered, no little dog at my side, which, believe me, is unusual! For you see, in my other life here at home, I do animal rescue. Being alone here, naked to the world, no little terriers nipping at me? THIS is a small moment of paradise in my crazy world of animals, the dark room, my husband and two sons.
