Okay, here we go. Butterflies in my stomach as I write this. Maybe it’s not a good idea to upload this… Where is the line that shouldn’t be crossed? This was inspired by Amy Huges @amyhughes beautiful series on curves, but this might just be taking it one step further. But really being nervous about this is silly; it is just a human body – nothing wrong with that, it is the most natural thing in the world really. Then why are there still butterflies in my stomach?!
I guess the only way to know is to post it and see what you guys say. I’m gonna close my eyes and press save…
congratulations on having the courage to post. and so glad that you did. what a lovely, tastefully done photo. the use of window light is perfect. Fav'd.
Thank you, thank you, thank you all you wonderful 365'ers - you rock! Isn't this community just the best? If you venture a bit out of your comfort zone and feel a bit insecure about it - this community is right there, encouraging you and supporting you! The world should be more like 365 :)
This is absolutely stunning! I've done many nude shots in my project and I still get nervous about posting them, no matter how little or much they show. I think this is just perfect though! Very brave! Bravo!
You are gorgeous! And this is so beautifully photographed. Love. I would be proud to post something like this. Of course, first I'd have to look like this, lol
So beautiful! Love the lighting, the sunflare, your gorgeous silhouette, and the movement of your hair. Bravo for the courage and job well done. Saw this on PP, congrats!
this is amazing. i think it is SO awesome that you are so comfortable with your body and so comfortable with sharing your work with others. i LOVE the lighting here and the silhouette. Also, your hair is gorgeous! lol. Good for you for hitting the "save" button :) (i would have too if i looked like this! haha)
you silly billy to even go there with ur thoughts. This shot is very beautiful and tasteful. My fav part is ur amazing hair and the light it has caught. You go girl , ur beautiful be proudxxxx
on a scale of 1 to 10, holy smokes! you just wrecked the darn scale! wonderful lines and curves; the lighting is perfect. no need to be bashful about this.
Fav for me, beautiful shot of a beautiful woman. Excellent light in this shot, love the silhouette feel with just a hint of more detail. Composition is just great with the positioning of the sun and how you left the window frames visible on every border.
it takes guts to upload such an exposed picture, kudos to you! you look absolutely beautiful. i love your description and what you said about bodies "it is the most natural thing in the world really" so true! when you really liberate yourself and your body is when you remind yourself that bodies aren't to be hidden, or necessarily sexual, getting over the taboos and remembering as baz luhrmann said "your body is the greatest instrument you'll ever own" this is so tasteful and free! congratz on the pop page, its well deserved :) xx
I think it's beautiful and tasteful and amazing!!! and it's a fave!! and I love the light...and I commend you for taking it one step further!! Oh Laerke this is wonderful. It's art. And I'm so glad it made the pop page!!!!!!!!!!
Stunning photo and trust me if I had that figure I'd be showing it off too :-) But apart from the figure, the shot, the light the whole image is superb
FINALLY 365 is getting past that whole "Oh, look how pretty all of these pictures are, but wait...WE CAN'T BE NAKED ON HERE!!!" thing. I think this is taken in a lovely way, showing curve and shadow wonderfully.
You are fit! ;-)
A gorgeous shot, love the lighting, I vote for more. Oh and you have gorgeous hair too.
