i've not had any comments on my current avatar. it was originally part of a set which had many comments, but they were lost when i cropped single images so that they were easier to view.

It was in regards to an implied nude shot that I had previously as my avi...

"I was always a girl who said she'd never do nudity. But after looking at (such & such an image) & the rest of your port. I'm seriously going to have to reconsider that."

Whenever I shoot her now, she never wants to do clothed work anymore...not that I'm complaining.

One of the comments/compliments I've gotten for my current avatar is "This is very 1800 geisha...with a 2006 flare. Stunning!".

I think that one's kinda' cool. smile

I was told that my avatar is "ingenious" and I was also told that my photo was used to describe that kind of self portraits as "UdoR Style Self Portrait".

Oh, and it's not a mirror shot.

Another one from the same series is this (from my website):

"You looked very confident"... to know after years of having low self-esteem, that my confidence is finally starting to show through is uplifting. It's better than any "you're beautiful/sexy/gorgeous" comment I have ever received.

I just recieved this yesterday for my avatar:

In my opinion - this shot is stronger by a factor of 5 than the other images. That is not to say the rest is weak, but if this was the only shot in your port I would still want to shoot with you - this shot is gorgeous. There is a strong confidence in your beauty here that is not a pose or an outfit - this shot is pure magic - love it love it love it. 20/10.

He wrote this on the photographers wall for my image:

I came to leave you kudos for a shot which is a shot in a million. Unfortunatly it is not in your port at the moment but E-Liz has it in hers and it is her avatar - it is the black and white shot. That shot is a really strong image that lingers, it is haunting (not in a bad way) and the memory of the shot stays as an image in the brain long after seeing the shot. Well done for preserving a moment and capturing a connection.

I thought this was the best thing to say ever!!!

awww....baby jack can sit on my pussy anytime. No, really my cat is very understanding. He would just sit there and let you lick him. He might hide for a minute but since he weighs about 20 pounds it is easy to find him.

IT can't be a mirror shot - the angle is not streight forward.

My favorite .... the avatar was a maternity nude with the model's left hand on her belly, hand and wedding ring sharp and the rest of her body blurred somewhat. Although I am not particularly conservative about the idea that people need to be married to have babies, I did like the story told by the ring - a woman, a man, a shared life, the bond between them and the result of that bond. Someone commented on the photo by saying that it literally brought her to tears. I can't think of a nicer compliment because I believe that part of what art should do is to evoke strong emotions.

Had some folks say that Marci (MM 20795) has a great smile (she does), knows how to pose in a bikini (she does) and love the contrast of the nasty looking device, and the smiling model. 

Of course, this photo was a precursor to the "Pit and the Pendulum" scene we shot.... (A photo of Marci in that is in my portfolio here as well!)
