I like going for walks, so I am taking my camera with me and applying a theme to the walk. Today&#8217;s theme was patterns.

		<description><![CDATA[Earlier, I wrote some of my ideas about what is &#8220;sexy&#8221;. Today, I am looking at what other people think it means. A definition I read said that sexy means &#8220;Arousing desire&#8221; and &#8220;Anticipation of sexual activity&#8221;. Both of these make me think about burlesque performers. Good ones do a great job of arousing desire [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=keninghamphoto.wordpress.com&amp;blog=23410085&amp;post=120&amp;subd=keninghamphoto&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

This style is similar to boudoir photos, but not necessarily taken in the bedroom (boudoir is French for bedroom). While I am sure that similar observations apply to male subjects, all of my experience is with women.

Other examples of soft light include studio softboxes, diffusers, and reflected light from a large surface (e.g., a ceiling). All of these need to be near the subject, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=keninghamphoto.wordpress.com&amp;blog=23410085&amp;post=83&amp;subd=keninghamphoto&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
