the naked flesh of feeling

How much has to be explored and discarded before reaching the naked flesh of feeling
 - Claude Debussy
If there's a truer quote about these times, I haven't found it. I feel like all I'm doing right now is exploring and discarding my naked feelings. 

It's also the first Sunday the month and the prompt is "unedited." Honestly, even though I came up with this prompt I had a hard time with it. These times are weird and I don't want reality in my self photography. I want hard edits to bend the pictures to my will. I've been creating stark black and white photos with harsh lines and clean clear distinctions in the light and the form. I've found satisfaction in that lack of color, the dramatic binary quality, the lack of vulnerability.  They make me feel all the feelings about how I wish the world would go right now... and if the world can't be clear and easy to define, then at least I can put a filter on my picture and make it behave.

But instead of an edit, I'm giving you this naked unedited picture from a set I took last fall. I've posted a few other pictures from that set, a couple that were dramatically edited like this one and this one. 

I look at this picture and I love the framing and that window was so badass. I was also in another country on vacation when I took it and I wonder how long it will be before I can safely travel like that again. 

sigh.

Love to all of you out there in the virtual blogsphere. I hope you are all staying safe and healthy.

This picture feels like a casual relaxed morning and your silhouette against the light and the curtains, while vaguely being able to see a shape resembling a hill, look really good

Seeing the landscape thru the curtains empowers your figure.

A Dream
BY EDGAR ALLAN POE

In visions of the dark night
I have dreamed of joy departed—
But a waking dream of life and light
Hath left me broken-hearted.

Ah! what is not a dream by day
To him whose eyes are cast
On things around him with a ray
Turned back upon the past?

That holy dream—that holy dream,
While all the world were chiding,
Hath cheered me as a lovely beam
A lonely spirit guiding.

What though that light, thro' storm and night,
So trembled from afar—
What could there be more purely bright
In Truth's day-star?

The light coming through the curtains gives the image a lovely soft focus feeling.

Strangely I’ve been using more filters since we locked down, maybe there was a subconscious reasoning to it.

This is beautiful and I really hope we can travel again soon!

The fact the shape of your body mirrors the shapes of the clouds or mountains? through the curtains is amazing. Did you know that was going to be the case or did you discover that afterwards?

I must say that I really love the dark vibe of this picture, the light being a bit kept out. Lovely.

I don't think there is much I can add to this, the window is badass and you look wonderful in that naked glory. It's a badass image 🙂
