May not get an entry in this week my model is being a right Diva, in fact a digdiva LOL

[highlandscenics]

Will be sitting this one out.....it's a great theme, but as some of you know, I fix and service Photo Booths for a living and part of the job is to take a test shot to check the quality. Now, I have 40 booths and I have to take a picture of myself in every one, everyday!......

I think you'll understand...lol

You should be used to that by now Mark! They're all a bit like that. You saw what mine did! At least your model's hair isn't long enough to hide behind. So go for it. Don't let your life be dictated by a stroppy model.

I understand Matthew, but I'm a very understanding person. On the other hand (should be head, I suppose) you must know by now, what your best features are, your best side, your best grin etc etc You can stun us all with the Matthew we've never seen!

Never too old to learn!

Actually, Karen suggested I should take/make 'an artistic nude!' I don't want to frighten you all though, and my hair isn't long enough any more to use as an artisitic cape.

I was joking it was my strategy to drive Pea24 away from the forum so he didn't win this one

I know my best side, but it's hard to take a steady shot of the back of your head.....lol

I was wondering if you'd seen my comment! :-)

I actually did arty nudes of myself for my final major project in college. Looking back now I don't know what I was thinking! lol The making of the photographs was easy, it was just putting them into my workbook and the final images on mountboard and allowing my fellow students and teachers to see them that was the hardest part! Btw I am no model lol, I had shots of my body with writing all over it, pressed up against perspex and texture shots and so on.
