There is of course nothing unique about shooting nudes when it comes to learning and cliches. We'll be clumsy at first with every different subject we point a camera at unless we persist at it and look to improve. If we all avoided shooting stuff for fear of making mere cliches, well this list wouldn't exist, for one thing. :-) I have a mind to, and I will shoot more nudes. I am inspired by wonderful images and have goals I aspire to. Reach them or no, I'm enjoying the journey. -- -bmw -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
