I just noticed it’s been a couple of years since my “infamous” Underwear at 50 photo shoot! Sometimes I take a glance back at the photos and usually I decide there are lots I don’t like. I just noticed this one that I kinda liked this time around (click it to see it against a dark background):

It’s got a different “feel” to it than the one I posted originally from this particular shot location.

Maybe it’s because I didn’t think this one was “comical” enough? I’m not sure.

It’s pretty common for me to go back to sets of photos I took in the past with “fresh eyes” and see photos I like that I didn’t like the first or even second time around. Strange phenomenon…:p

Fitness & Bathroom Selfies as Art Form

I’m interested in photography as an art form. Lots of people interested in physical fitness use fitness selfies (often taken in bathrooms and locker rooms due to the presence of mirrors) to keep track of their fitness progress and/or to present their bodies in a good light, for example, as a means for motivating themselves to keep exercising.

Though most selfies aren’t typically artistic, there’s no reason they can’t be.

Here are two bathroom “fitness” selfies–taken with a relatively low quality phone camera that produces images reminiscent of Polaroid photographs–I present to you as possibly encroaching upon the genre of dramatic/moody artistic photography…
