Self portraits

Journal Entry: Sat Jul 5, 2008, 11:30 PM
So, just so everyone knows re: my recent stream of self portraitry, this is not because I am my own favorite subject. I'd just as soon take pictures of other people, thanks. It's just that I have no other model who is ready and willing 24/7 like I am and right there when I need her.

Thank-you for your explanation. You have restored my faith in people. I actually have very low self-esteem even if it does not seem so. I see beauty in everything. I see worth in all art forms for the fact that some one has attempted to express themselves, their emotions, thier views, their fears, whatever through their chosen medium. I had placed the photos in scraps not exxpecting theme to be in them to be so much in the public eye. I misunderstood your intent when coupled with some of your journalled commentary on your profile page. Although I would not necessarily look at all of the people I shared the folder with, they are indeed still beautiful in their own right for having the intestinal fortitude, as do any others, to bare themselves before all. I did not completely expect to have so many people looking at and commenting on my photos. The way I erroniously received your 'fave' was to have the impression that you believed I was either conceited, vain, ugly or some such thing and that I should not be posting my images as art, which technically was not the purpose. I apologize for my misunderstanding. The way I perceived this situation has taught me a valuable lesson though about letting other's opinions influence me so. I have not given up my quest for a better body. I have not let go of my dream to be a better photographer.
I hope that we can become friends as i can use contructive criticism on my photos and my physique. I am training to return to my career. I encourage you to read my jouranl for better understanding. Thank-you.

Actually, the objective of that collection is balls, as in tenacity. Challenging the mainstream idea of what beautiful people are supposed to look like, who is worthy of being the subject of art photography, etc. Or just pictures that strike me as very very different. That collection is for stuff that made me react in an atypical way, that made me wonder what compelled their owners to post them publicly, etc. I mean, take it as you will, and you may still find that highly unflattering, but it isn't just a joke. I named it "abfab" as in absolutely fabulous, because I enjoy those photos, personally. Those pictures all made me stop and say, "hey, wait a minute, what was THAT?" I think that alone lends them value. And the models/artists in many of those photos certainly don't consider themselves a joke or bad company to be in at all.
