You know how to get a few quick faves and compliments? It's easy, just take a picture of your genitalia and watch the magic happen! Seriously people, are you that desperate for attention that you will post a picture of a vagina and call it artistic nude? I have looked through the artistic nude part of DA and found more crotch shots than I can shake a stick at! But I digress, a quick picture of a vagina is instafav worthy I suppose. I mean hey, lets give those 14 year old boys who cant get onto the porn websites because of parent controls what they want! Its a win win situation, you get your ego stroked by these perverts and they get to stroke themselves! A simple side shot or straight on shot of a vagina is NOT art and is NOT artistic nude people. I mean hell, I might as well just take a picture of my penis and spam the artistic nude area! I mean, why not add to the smut?

It pisses me off that people take random nude shots of themselves and pasting the phrase "Artistic Nude" to them get mega views and favs while I sit here and post stuff like THIS, REAL artistic photos and get NOTHING for it.


But hell, maybe I should have taken that one shot of my sister naked huh? Creepy and incest like but hell that would have at least been a real artistic nude shot! Don't get me wrong, I like a crotch shot and a nice picture of a vagina as much as the next guy, but its NOT artistic nude. And it is also annoying that those genital shots get more views and favs that good photography does.

Now there ARE real good photographers on here with real artistic nude shots, but these are few and far in between. I said this very nicely to one person one day. Her response? She blocked me from commenting on anything else of hers. I guess its better than her whining and complaining and calling a wambulance, but still annoying. She just couldn't take constructive criticism. Denial, is sad, but if I were as fat as she was and had someone rain on my parade I suppose I'd be upset too.

Bottom line, a simple photo of your vagina or penis is NOT art, its a crotch shot or smut. Its a way to get your ego stroked by a 14 year old boy or basement dweller. Its the closest they can get to is and its only their libido complimenting you, its not a real compliment. If you really do believe they mean it your pathetic and have no freinds so need the internet to make yourself feel better. Please don't spam this website with your smut, its depressing.

Meh, crappy Christmas this year. Got to work, not that I'd have been able to do much else if I hadn't. Never take your parents for granted, even when they are annoying you by bugging you about cleaning your room or homework, don't take them for granted. This past year has taught me one thing, no matter what they did nor how much they bugged me at times, I loved them more than anything else. Now being separated from them, on my own and quite literally being all by myself I realize this. This day is more that just about gifts, is about spending time with your loved ones. Sure they make things better, but right now I'd give back all the gifts they sent me for ONE day with them.



Sorry dad, not photo of you... yet on my DA

I was looking through my photo's recently and came across a startling problem. They ALL are blurry. Even the better of them have a certain amount of blurriness to them. Especially in the background.

Now don't get me wrong photos like these, blurriness is to be expected and are SUPPOSED to be slightly blurry in the background.


My biggest problem seems to be distant scenery. The images look ok small, but in full view you notice the haziness to them. Or they are blurry in some parts and crystal clear in other places.


Ok, so the third one was taken while on a ship going close to full speed and being buffeted by winds over 40 mph, still, its a doable shot. Portrait shots are easy because, well, I have a tripod. Still a tripod is not always available nor is it very functional at all times.

Maybe I'm just being too picky. I dunno, but I'd like to improve and have ALL my shots tacksharp! But despite my horribly pickyness I DO have my favorites



PS: dont expect this to be my final journal skin, experimenting for now...
