Baby Did a Bad Bad Thing

2008.08.02
Experiment or a shameless self-promotion?

Either way. For all you photoblog newcomers I did some research. Not so long ago I posted the entry called Nude (The Joke Is On Me). It is definitely the most viewed out of 70 something entries I posted. Was it successful for its 'artistic' merit? (Eidea don't hate me for my use of 'artistic' ... he he). Doubt so. It attracted the attention initially by its title and I guess, 'come to bed' look in my eyes helped. Than some that bothered saw it for what it really was.

Now, if some of you want to attract the attention to your blog, take a picture of a semi naked woman (or naked, even better so), call it something provocative and lets see what happens. And just to be understood, I am not some crazy feminist, I love naked women too, I think they are beautiful ... I just like them real and not airbrushed to the inch of their life or contorted in some god forbidden positions. The example of good is an entry by dae88 ... (I can't believe that I did not see this photoblog before). I say if you do it, do it right. Well, maybe one day ...

I feel the devilment in me, as Irish so nicely put it. The bottle of the beer is next to my Mac, and holidays have officially started. I am off home and this is my last blog until the middle of August. I am gonna deep my toes into the sea, hug some friends and listen to lots of lousy music. That's my plan. We will see. Maybe it turns out to be like The Holiday That Never Happened. Maybe better.

The song I stole the title from.

bchat Thoughtful, intelligent post. Sly, very clever title (Chris would be proud). You nailed this one Dragana!

DancingDolphin Maybe both? Either way, I prefer the idea of a sexy photo of a beautiful women being in the hands of someone who cares about the woman as opposed to the hands of strangers.

dhulsmeyer i like that you're revolutionary. though i don't think it takes a lot to start a revolution on photoblog. haha i didn't know it was you who started the whole nudes/no nudes controversy! nice job with that

etodd80 I like how your posts always have something a bit deeper to them. Have a great break!

Madoc And that trick worked again! ;-)
To your question I answer: This seems to be the shameless promotion of your experiments.
You say you don't particularly like to write, but your texts, lately, are very very interesting and sometimes even fascinating.

mijocus Well, If I remember it right, I found your blog because of that post... so yes, it works :)

Mabi938 The chance we have with photoblog is that we can meet people who have a real artistic sight. And you are right putting in view the fact that people look as TV and medias make they look at life.
Thank you for this message.

jagungal a certain amount of 'devilment' is good—enjoy your holiday and keep workin' the camera!

yellodog Hope your holiday plays itself out on the Adriatic coast rather than the Irish Sea ;)

miguelcruz Siguen impresionándome estas imágenes tan perturbadoras...

jenjung ha ha...sigh....i was thinking of doing something creative like that when my photography got better but then there are so many weirdos who get off on any amount of skin showing...the other reason why I don't audition for roles that require nudity, at least not yet, anyway. Especially when some of my male friends watch a show with nudity and all they can talk about is how large the woman's breasts were and how excited they got by seeing them.

MrSaSa very mistic photo and atmosphore.
Bravo

stormfish the internet is solely meant to provide easy access to pornography.

no other purpose of any kind has been identified so far; and when those aliens from beteigeuze finally excavate some of the rotten servers from earth in 3'000 years, that will be what they base their cultural verdict on.

one of the best things about getting rid of religion is that it washes away shame, too. hope you'll get some good "deeping" your toes into the sea... ;-)

Nice post.
