Like A Teapot

More shadows

,

Got seriously pissed today. Only playing with these images can calm me down a bit. They are taken in succession within seconds. Don't know which one is better. Both give the impression of a big ass that I don't currently have and never had. It is the fault of the fishing shorts that I am wearing.

I don't know why shorts designed for fishing men and women have to have so many different kinds of pockets. Two or three, I can understand and appreciate; but six of them, Gesus-Mary-Christ!

You carry a purse? Unnecessary, if you have enough pockets :D

No Matt, that's an angel wing! :D
Your ass doesn't look fat, it's the angel; take note of the proportions of your upper body versus the assets.
In addition you can provide up with prove of your statement, succeeding the belly button series :D

Well, you know what they say ... "The derriere, the merriere."

Sorry. Couldn't resist.

Don't forget: even shadows have perspective. If you were able to square that up into a truly orthographic shadow, it would be a lot smaller at the bottom. My Scottish Lassie sent me a pic of herself that she took in a full-length mirror ... she thought her hips had gotten pathologically thin until I pointed out that she was using a WA lens held at the height of her eyes. I squished and stretched the picture for her and then she saw what looked more normal.

Later ... got an idea ... go out to a bit of pavement with a bit of chalk, and lay out a box on the pavement about the proportion of your picture frame. Stand so your shadow falls in the frame and take the picture. Then use the "Perspective" option on your crop tool in Photoshop to square up the box, and use the "Image size" option in the "Image" menu to make sure the proportions are about right. Then you'll see what I mean.

These shadow photos sure are fun.

Don't get upset. Lie on the ground in corpse pose. (Savasana) Pay attention to the breath for a while. You should feel better.

You're not exactly refuting the big ass idea, dW! :D
