Nobody should have to lie about their sexuality

I’m not really loving this shot at all, but I really wanted to pay my tribute to the cause. I was looking through my closet and I don’t have that much purple, a fleece and a cardigan it turned out – and none of those were terribly photogenic… So here goes :)

And also just so you know I am wearing pants... :)

You really like your textures! How do you bend like that?!

[Laerke Thorndal]

@vikdaddy - ha ha - I think most women can bend like that (and men too...?) the hardest part was to not have my shoulder blade pop out too much, cos that looked freaky! Like a wing or something :D
And I'll come off my textures now - sans textures for the next couple of shots!!

[Andrea Freeman]

I think it came out cool and way to think outside the box.

[Richard Tyson]

This looks great and very agile too!

[Melissa Pike]

I think this is absolutely beautiful! Very nicely done!

[Laerke Thorndal]

@melissapike - aww thank you Melissa :) I actually felt kinda bad about putting it up cos I was so unsure about it...

[Richard Schuster]

I really like the textures - not sure how to do them but will try one day :-)
This is a beautifully composed and effective shot. I really like it!

[Joe Ciras]

Nice picture, what is that coming off of your left elbow?

[Laerke Thorndal]

@cirasj - sshhh that is a door knob and you are not supposed to see that...!

[wahyu]

nice... what is that coming off of your left elbow? ups... :)

[Sheri Peterson]

I like it a lot. I think it would have been great with or without the texturing, and I love what you're trying to say. Agreed!

[Chimom]

you are always so creative! and I chucked on your "pants" comment. lol!

[Emeraldboots]

This is so cool...and I wore a ratty old purple tee-shirt yesterday. :-) Do you use photo shop for the textures?

[Isabel]

[Joanne Medeiros]

Super cool shot!!!! I too chuckled when I read about the pants. HA

[Laerke Thorndal]

@icywarm - really bad lighting actually, it is kinda dark in our apartment unfortunately... The very soft look comes from an action by Paint the Moon
