This is just for the heathens and blasphemers ...

[Vaughn]

What the heck, count me in. It will be a 5x7 -- haven't decided on silver gelatin or platinum/palladium -- male or female (unless the reciepient has a preference).

Not specifically planning it as I don't have a studio setup hence my limited "old stuff" comment previously.

Heather-

don't let lack of a studio hamper you - my "studio" until very recently has been my dining room, a 10' x 12' room. If the weather weren't trending chilly in your part of the world, I'd even say try outdoors as a "studio". Just find a willing victim, erm, friend, and shoot away!

I do have some male nude work, though I hadn't considered exchanging it. I think maybe I will send one of my male works.. of course it is not the least bit erotic but then neither is my female work.

I think we've had this discussion a while back in APUG chat. You have a 10x12 room, I have approximately 56inches wide to work in. Maybe. If I shift things around. Need some lights too. And I have no willing victims They're all too shy.

Your husband?

[Rlibersky]

I'm in.

 

[Thomas Bertilsson]

I see your comment, Art, about single exchange. I'm still in, but misread while signing up.

If at all possible, I am willing to print up more than one image, in case somebody else is willing to trade more than one too. If it's not possible to work that out in this exchange, if you're interested, please PM me and we can do a private exchange.

I find the idea of multiple prints appealing, Thomas, but I'm also a bit concerned about how rapidly the cost could build up (especially factoring in transatlantic shipping).

 

[kberquist]

Long time lurker printing in Pt/Pd. Count me in.

Still unwilling even after I pointed out he'd be cheaper than me hiring a model! Some people :rolleyes:

Actually he is willing to be a leg model but not upper leg Or any definition of nude :rolleyes:

There is always a self-timer, or a hubby to snap the shutter...

What are the timescales for this exchange? I've not shot a nude before. How nude is nude if you know what I mean?

Without clothes

I'd say no one is going to be able to tell from a closeup if someone is totally naked or not unless the clothes are in shot but that depends on the composition and all that. If you have something in mind and can accomplish it, good on you But if you mean underwear or something, I'm not sure where to draw the line. I'll shut up now. :confused:

LOL You slay me!

Nude is naked, no clothes, bared all, skin only, birthday suit, streaker attire, full monty. You may use props but I think everyone participating expects the print to have images of body parts not normally seen at 'family events'. Unless you're a nudist. Or a blasphemer, heathen, etc...

Let's try to get the print made and sent before November 30 so that it shows up for Christmas! Just to test the GAWDS even more.

Even the bits outside the edge of the frame

 

[Allen Friday]

What?!! She can't wear 6" stripper heels and be nude?

 

[TheFlyingCamera]

I'd say the stripper heels qualify, so long as A: she can remain upright while wearing them, and B: they're worn on the feet, not to hide the naughty bits. Incidentally, I think within the profession, anything shorter than a 6" stiletto is considered a flat.

 

[smieglitz]

She? Oh, wait. This doesn't have to be a self-portrait after all, does it?

 

[Ian Leake]

I don't have any 6" heels so I suppose that excludes the self portrait option

 

[Akki14]

I don't own 6inch heels, I own 4inch high platform sandles...

 

[Akki14]

Oh and don't forget, you can use "discretionary limbs" as my friend puts it Or at least I'm keeping that in mind!
