A Man needs a hobby…

I have not run a pinup for a while. While I was not blogging Saturday I was shooting and was delighted to find a really pretty girl the camera loves.
While I enjoy shooting the kids and the dog and pretty flowers and such like, the fact is that taking pictures of pretty girls and trying, usually unsuccessfully, to make good pictures is great fun. With Tamy, the girl in these pictures we were really just doing a test shoot to see how she photographed. My partner, Susan, who styles the shoots (and yes, I do know I am an astonishingly lucky man) wanted to do a bit of a mash up of 30’s and 50’s. The full arm tattoo was a tiny bit challenging but as I shot I began to like it.
I note that BCF has posted the ever lovely Anne Hathaway. I scent a pinup war for Valentines Day.

No need to publish this, but you have a picture over the first para of your text.

Outstanding. You could easily turn that hobby into a source of income, BTW. I say this as someone who is not overly generous with praise when it comes to most people’s photography.

I accept this challenge.

What contest is there, exactly? Jay’s posting his own work, BCF is posting someone else’s work.

Nice of Mr. Abrams to let you into his home, Jay, makes you wonder why he’s so cranky.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:23 pm
I shall meet your challenge. What date for the 1st exchange?

Hey, thanks Sean. Coming from a man who can shoot this well it is a huge compliment.
Arnie, I’ve started :)

Nobody panic: I will not be the subject of any photographs. Unless there’s a Cellulite Fetish Site out there looking for contributors.

‘when shooting… delighted to find’
I only find these sorts when I surf the web.

@Kathy: I wanna see you wearing the bullet bra and brandishing a pink shotgun. C’mon already – that sort of thing could knock Jay for a loop.

bondage…S and M….hmmmmmm
being the product of a Catholic private school education that sort of thing is just nuts to me…so when i think of la Shaidle posing naughtily i see her leading elmo and syed on leashes with muzzles over their snouts….while she is wearing a gauzy diaphanous niqab with hijab and veil…..the full fig!.....the backlighting is of course a smouldering Kaaba which has just been nuked by the Iranians…
it’s kinky…it’s politically correct from a Shi’ite doctrinal point of view….and it exposes wonderfully the degeneracy of the West….

Glad you pointed out the tattoo. I hadn’t noticed…
