You shouldn't be nervous about this! It IS beautiful and creative and your body is beautiful, too! Lots of girls would kill to have your butt! And your legs for that matter! Fav fav fav =]

Wow, that IS beatutiful. Female shapes are very graceful and this picture is too. The way the various shots are overposed gives a lot of real movement to the picture and it... flows, you know? I really love this.
About your nerves... I totally know what you mean. I've had this idea for a nude shot but can't actually do it. Not that I don't like my body or anything, I usually don't have any problem with being half naked in front of most people, I'm just... concerned about what people I know would think.

Thank you
I was a bit worried about what people would think too (this was a part of my final work for class last year - now all of my professors know what I look like naked), but so far I've encountered nothing unpleasant. The people who are made uncomfortable by it will usually just do their best not to look.
It is easier to do things in real life - I've skinny dipped with a girl I barely knew on a public beach without shame. I think when it's part of an artwork there is more fear of judgement, both physical and moral. Plus, we're so used to seeing '

This is beautiful.
The female body is one of my favourite subjects for use in art pieces.
It's the curves.
Woah... that sounded slightly perverted.
Forgive me.
What I meant was, this is beautiful. I admire you for your courage to post these online.
And I appreciate that you are normally modest.
*hugs* Keep doing what you're comfortable with.

i dont think its beautiful i think it's incredibly beautiful. The feeling and sense of movement is something amazing and really quite wonderful. The softness of the tones and light mirrors the softness of the skin and add to this sense of lightness and movement. The pose and body are both equally striking and stunning

I am basically incapable of relaxing. Ever. About anything. But I will try to stop actively obsessing.
... I want to break down all my inhibiting mental walls. I want to stop being ashamed of everything. This is just another step in that direction...
Thank you

It's okay, there's people from every end of the spectrum.
Some people like to prance around naked in front of anyone
and they have no problem at all with it. While others don't even want to show much skin. *raises hand*
I'm pretty modest actually. Otherwise I'd have had up nude
pics of me by now. I've thought about it, but I just can't seem
to allow myself to go there. So I know how you feel and I appreciate
your bravery.

I used to have to spend all summer wearing long sleeves and baggy coats. I still wear thick stockings all year long.
I hate being controlled like that, particularly as I do not, mentally, feel that it is necessary I don't think nudity is a big deal.
In my mind I could walk naked trough the streets. It is my body that rebels and sweats and shakes and makes me cry.
but between skinny dipping and showing strangers my butt on the internet, I think I am making progress to the point where I will have a choice. (Ultimately, the choice will probably leave me clothed in public spaces.)

Haha yeah I wear socks all the time.
I can't stand to be barefoot unless I'm sleeping,
wearing sandals in the summer or just being casual around my boyfriend.
(I dont' mind if he sees my feet)
I keep thinking I should do some nude art of myself since I wont have a young body forever and I might as well
appreciate it.. but I can't bring myself to ever show that
to everyone. Maybe I can overcome that, I don't know.

try shooting a self-nude, and see if you like it enough, and are comfortable enough to show it to an audience?
I shot this one as a reference picture for some anatomy drawings, and then ended up awfully fond of it.

I've done partial nudes sort of..
But it's worth giving it a try I guess.

at the very least, it'll give you something to laugh at when you are old and wrinkly and beyond vanity.

so, it looks like a art piece. Interesting!
Is it two over posed shots?
