Been Trying To Meet You

Think it lacks any intensity. I like the simple geometry, but needs more contrast also the camera needs to come back a bit and a better angle......also need a better looking model.

Interesting. I never would have thought of it. Perhaps, awty, the softness is indicative of his lack of self esteem? Just thinkin'.

I think this would be a great image as part of a series exploring self esteem.

@bsdunek Interesting, I was thinking it was over exposed and under developed, like myself. Thanks I like low contrast, it has its uses.

@jtk Are my boxer shorts showing? Damn elastic has gone in them.

@Eric Rose Thanks, still working on my performing arts piece "Conversations of the Socially Inept" or how to upset an "artist" , apparently mentioning male grooming (back, sack and crack waxing) is offensive to someone in my alternative photography meet up group. One of the platinum palladium fellas needs to build a bridge and get over it. Seriously (last comment probably makes little sense), interesting topic (didnt really put a terrible lot of thought into the self esteem part) am interested in the widening social divide/ social isolation/ social realism type work as a long term goal. Appreciate the comment, hope my reply wasn't too disjointed.

@jtk Ha, prefer the standard type, although the wedding tackle doesn't get much of a run much these days its still important to maintain good air circulation, specially here in the sub tropics.

i like the "self-esteem" direction... you can get a lot of mileage, conversation-wise, out of this photo! fun shot. thanx.
