Artist's Comments

I've got a problem , I don't know why I took this. I just knew i had to.

What do you feel ? Does it work for you?

Any feedback is appreciated.
Jaz.

** Edit : Thanks for all your feedback guys , its very much appreciated. The more i see the more i read the more i understand why i took it. Its all about guilt and vulnerability. We all have done things that are shameful in out lives , but what can we do about it ? We aren't perfect and we were born sinners. So the question really is , how do we forgive others as we forgive ourselves? To move on with life and be a better person, to dwell in the present / look to the future and not live in the past.

Thanks guys, you are all my muse.

It has me a little confused as to what she's thinking, but the quality of the photo is very good. Oh, and the confusion--it isn't a bad thing.

that's strange, the clothes (well stockings) are really sexy but the pose is so childlike and innocent...and her nails aren't really long and vampy either they're just short and sort of half painted. It all forms a nice contrast.

It has the feel of arm socks, and the talk of a dreamer...maybe it's one of those moments where you're just thinking to yoursel how life is, and how it could change.

Or it's just a feeding the ego time :)

I like the focus, the composition--it gives a confused/embarrassed feeling.

the exposed skin at the top if her leg gives the photo a very vournable feel. like she is hiding behid these fishnet stockings but in a moment of reclusion you can see the bare skin and a childlike posture.. perhaps the real person is shy and out of place but has hidden that to the outside world.. the composition is pleasing as well.

I think it's great. To me, it's guilt. She's done something she shouldn't have done and she feels guilty and really sorry about it. Yeah, that's what it means to me :)

I definitely like the focus and the emotions you got with this. Everyone else has said confusion, guilt, vulnerability, embarassment, and they all work. At first I thought that she was sitting on something and you took the picture from the top, but now that I'm looking at it more (the background is a little disconcerting at first), did you flip this? I guess so, she must've been lying down. Is she in a shower? Because I was thinking that, but then I thought it looked more like a public bathroom (an old one at least). And a public bathroom would totally lend more to a guilty feeling; doing something wrong and then thinking about it in a seedy bathroom.

Its quite awsome! It seems like the person the in the photo is hiding somthing maybe she was raped or maybe she is pregnant thats why she sits with her hands between her legs. But, she dosent want people to know her pain so she wears the fish nets to expose and hide how she really feels.
