Day 30 of 365 days.
And the third day of my attempt to Bring Sexy Back. First of all, I am absolutely totally astounded that I made it this far, and remarkably I don’t even want to quit. Even though there are days like today when I just don’t really feel like putting energy into it. I spent most of the day working on a different creative project. Then I realized I still needed to not only snap a picture, but due to my own self challenge it needed to be sexy. I decided I’d just snap a pic with a towel on as i got out of the shower. Boring I know, but whatever, they can’t all be winners. Then as a random aside, Pi C’s suggested that maybe it’d be cool if I drew a sexy portrait and that got me thinking. I have this idea for a digital drawing self-portrait that I’m going to do down the line, and maybe I could use this as an opportunity to test a couple techniques. So here we go.
It kind of harkens back to my old Photosketches a bit.
I actually do have something a little more substanative planned for tomorrow. We’ll see if I get to it or not.
The good thing about doing 365 shots is that a simple snapshot can suffice on a non-creative day. And simple snapshots can benefit from an interesting angle at the very least, if not a little bit of post-processing.
We could even have a "Bad Snapshot" day or week, taking intentionally bad photos as an homage to all of our shoeboxes (or CDs) full of early work as kids with our first (cheap) camera.
I can force my 20D to take bad photos…!
love the cross hatch type effect… i read your challenge but lately i feel like if i brought sexy back it would only be long enough to kick it in the jewels for confusing me 🙂
ha! jessie donaster…i’m feelin’ you on that comment…but i’m trying it anyway. as a mom i don’t get to spend much time "feelin sexy" (though chris tells me i am all the time…he’s good like that!)

Nice effect, Chris!! Well done!
