I stumbled across this pic when I was browsing through some old documents. This was taken a long time ago, just after a boy I loved very much broke up with me. The mourning-process took four years. This is a pic from the beginning of that period. No posing there, I was real real sad. A friend needed to take pics for school and I remember lying there, not interested in laughing, smiling, making silly faces. This is the only pic I kept from this day, probably because it was the darkest.

.....I have one of mdiver:

Very cool, but then I'm a sucker for 18 year old French girls.

for the billionth time: I'm as French as you are an American living with a Chinese woman.

But thanks for the compliment, I guess

Fauxie said:

You are a sucker for any girl..

Abierman is the first poster on this thread There goes the saudade, the Wetzschmertz, the sad and lonely bohémien-feeling.

Just don't post pics of your naked ass, ok? That's one rule I want to be respected.

You're welcome. How's life as a student?

LIES!

Only the ones of the bandaged, butterfly, Thundercats trainer velcro ripping variety usually, not that I'm picky.

abierman said:

Thanks but no thanks. I saw them once, and that was enough. I must honestly say the mountains-snows-ski-pics make me more.

I'm not in a bad mood. I've only become a photowhore, just as you, the only difference being I still feel the need to hide it in some emotional, or even semi-artistic package.

(and the second difference is that I never had pics of my ass taken )

Fauxie said:

I can't possibly answer that difficult question. I'm only 18.

MarieLouise said:

That's the spirit!

That's a wonderful picture of you, MarieLouise! You seem to have a whole model portfolio by now. Maybe that will come in handy if you get sick of teaching.

Here's a pic I took of an actress in Vancouver. It took a while before she started to relax in front of the camera, but when this was taken I think she'd forgotten that I was even there.

These were the kind of pictures I wanted to see. Sexy and cute pics can be fine, but I love pics that show some other kind of emotion from time to time.

You're a talented photographer. I said it before and I will keep on repeating it when it's deserved.

MarieLouise said:

Thank you very much, MarieLouise. You know that I really respect your opinion.

Maybe we could combine my photographer "talent" with your modelling talent on occasion?

retina said:

wow

Raine said:

Thank you!

I'm all alone! But still smiling.

MarieLouise, the fact that you used the word 'Wetzschmertz' seriously scores points in my book.....just sayin'.....

a hitch hiker we drove by

Pretty much represents how I've felt most of my life...sometimes in a good way, sometimes not.

It's Weltschmertz, isn't it. I don't know any German. Too many syllables in one word.

Last two pics have a great atmosphere, I must say.

i was really sad in this one. my son took this picture right after i had some things on my mind. i was trying to hide it but i dont think i did a good job.
resize edit cant get it any smaller

'Weltschmertz', yes! (I cut & pasted your spelling eventhough I did read the 'L'!)..The german language has great words & expressions! I love it!
