The Non-Picture Picture Thread

[RedheadedHaze]

Every now and then, I toy with the idea of doing a pic thread. However, mass exhibitionism isn't really my style, so....meh.

Instead, I thought it would be more interesting to see, if one WAS to post a picture of themselves on any given day, what would it be a picture of? How would you be posed? Clothed? Unclothed? What creative or artistic license would you take?

For us intellectual types, sometimes the turn on is in what's left to the imagination...what we can't actually see but perhaps can visualize with some inventive or insightful wording.

So, have at it. Post your non-pic pics and enjoy a little faux exhibitionism.

***************

If I were to post a pic of myself today, I would be in a cranberry red men's oxford, with a slight sheen...cuffs rolled, most of the buttons undone, hanging off one naked and freckled shoulder. I would have a dark plum colored tie with a lavender pinstripe loosely knotted in a Windsor around my neck and nestled b/w an ample bosom (see AV). I would have on a lacy cranberry red tanga panty (google machine for the win), bare legs and feet. My nails and toes are painted a dark shade of grape. My hair is in loose waves and curls, spilling down my shoulders. Minimal makeup, a nude lip, and my specs...(see the Sexy Bedroom Eyes thread in case you want a hint of those)

I would be propped up on a beige carpet, against a floor to ceiling gilt framed mirror, one hand tangled in my hair, the other at my side. One leg would be pulled up, the other slightly bent at the knee.

I feel like being sultry today.

Again, Red, your depth in self-analysis makes me realize how incredibly cold I am. Well, not just cold in my way of perceiving the world, but also just plain cold... god, this heater sucks... and it's Phoenix!
I'd be dressed in a thick blanket, but otherwise naked (I love being naked but I hate being cold, O the paradox of winter) at my computer switching back and forth between this place, facebook, and protools, occasionally taking a break to noodle around on the bass or hammer something out on the piano. Actually, that's just what I'm doing right now... I feel like being productive.

I'm often told that I'm very analytical of myself and others. Psych and Sociology were my favorite classes. The human mind is a vast and wondrous place.

I loved the part about jumping b/w here and FB and the other. I do the same thing. I admittedly am a FB junkie.



Thank you for contributing! You sound snuggly.

Hey RedheadedHaze, do you know how to tie a tie with a Windsor knot?

Hey RedheadedHaze, do you know how to tie a tie with a Windsor knot?

I do...and please, just call me Red.

Absolutely! Your threads are fun to contribute to. I am quite snuggly, but my hands are frikken frozen... it's not even this cold outside, I just checked. Hell, were it not cold, it'd probably be the same picture, just not with a blanket... me hunched over the computer naked, with one hand on the keyboard I have hooked up to it, one hand on the mouse, peering intently into whatever I'm doing, unaware of the person taking the picture, or in fact anything outside my bubble at the time.

Psych and soc... cool subjects, indeed... haven't taken them in a while, so I'm kinda rusty at it. I was a math and music kid.

Red's Pose of the Day:

Stretched out on top of a long, dark cherry credenza, one arm stretched over my head, the other bent and tucked under the small of my back. Bare legs, one knee pulled up, the other leg dangling off the side...black patent leather stilettos.

I'm wearing an ebony men's Oxford, mostly unbuttoned, french cuffs with sterling silver cufflinks from Tiffany's. I have a long three strand necklace of liquid silver draped around my neck. Dark, smoky eyes, nude lip.

My inspiration: 'Till I Collapse-Eminem & Nate Dog:

"'Cause sometimes you feel tired,
feel weak, and when you feel weak,
you feel like you wanna just give up.
But you gotta search within you, you gotta find that inner strength
and just pull that shit out of you and get that motivation to not give up
and not be a quitter, no matter how bad
you wanna just fall flat on your face and collapse."

I'm moving on.

 

[Frizzle_Fry]

well I figured I would post my morbid vision of the day.

Wearing only a pair of jeans, in a dimly lit room I sit under a single light. I sit on my feet, eyes and mouth taped shut. My hands are zip cuffed behind my back, I simply look up as I feel the sharp pain of a stiletto heel assaulting the flesh of my shoulder. One stream of blood running down my chest from the site of her assault. You cant see anything of the mystery woman...just her sexy leg.

 

[RedheadedHaze]

Hmmm...I failed to note what kind of panties I was wearing yesterday.

I guess that means I wasn't wearing any!

Pity, that.

What an atrocity! Surely a crime against humanity.

Let's see, right now if I could take a picture of myself, I'd be laying out naked in the sun on one of those big red hunks of rock in Sedona, chowing down on a sandwich... a kinky sandwich like, ham and swiss on pumpernickel... looks like I'm eating a black pussy and the ham is the inner labia. I don't know what the hell the swiss is, aside of Jarlsberger, but it's good stuff.

Today's image....

If I were to post a picture for all to see today would be the norm.... My favorite jeans warn and shaded to my body. The knees a bit tattered due to my lack of a graceful nature. The ever present shell toes once warn by Run DMC in the 80's. Up top is another story for it is unseasonably cold here in southern California. I press on today at my desk designing a brochure for children's photography with my favorite stripes of fall color. my hair a bit disheveled as I am confused by my clients needs. I haven't shaven as I only need to impress my 3 yr. old daughter today....

Not sure if this what is meant but I hope my descriptions do me justice....

Ok, casual cool, especially with the retro-Adidas? Sexy. I dig it. THAT was great imagery of a laid back, comfortable guy.

Kudos, my dear.

Taking a cue...

So today, Red isn't doing traditional sexy....

Today, we're doing girl next door sexy-

Faded denim jeans, worn, holes in the knees and frayed cuffs...bare feet, pale pink toe polish. Thin white oxford, rolled sleeves, top 4 buttons undone, shirt falling back and off one bare shoulder. I'm sitting on a wooden bar stool, one foot on the top rung, the other on the third rung down. My hair is in loose curls, minimal makeup and nude lip w/ a hint of sheen. Specs perched on my nose, as per usual....

Welcome to the daily artist within.

I kid you not....You have painted an ideal for me. In so many ways.

I know this is cheating, but your picture would be the inspiration for my photo offering:

On an opposite barstool. Faded 501 jeans. Top button undone. Torn out right knee, fraying hole in the left knee. My old boots on. Well worn button down shirt, all buttons undone and shirt hanging open. Sleeves rolled up just above my elbow. Right foot crooked on the rung of the barstool. Left foot resting on the brass runner under the bar. Vintage Martin guitar in my lap. Right hand would be somewhat blurred, left hand affixed to the neck of the guitar. Eyes locked on the beautiful redhead across from me (see Red's post above), singing her a song. On the bar would be a bottle of beer and a shot of whiskey. Her hand resting on a book of poetry. Fingers slightly raised, as if conducting the song. The light would be soft and coming from my right side, her left.

 

[GoodOmen]

Sitting at my writing desk in a comfortable mocha-colored leather chair; one leg propped up on the desk, the other on the floor; Black MacBook balanced on my lap. Surrounded by books from authors ranging from Sendak to Cervantes. A stack of papers lay ready for editing on the desk.

Dark blue Levi's, slim fit, with a stylish brown leather belt. Gray and blue argyle socks and a pair of blue and gray puma track shoes. White tee beneath a forest green, light weight cotton V-neck sweater from J. Crew; sleeves are slightly pushed up to just below my elbows. Green and gray boxer briefs. Closely trimmed beard; hair is short, but not too short, and a little messy.

if I were to post a picture of myself right now, you would find me sitting cross-legged indian style on my bed with my brand new hp laptop resting on a gorgeous cranberry red duvet.

Hair is a curly, tousled mess withblack square prada framed eyeglasses sitting on my face. I wearing an oversized Johnson and Wales hunter green sweatshirt with black leggings and white ankle socks that have candy canes and peppermints all over them.

Studiously casual, I'd say...no?

Since I know how fond you are of the retro look, how would you present yourself to the world a la Louise Brooks, a dancer as well as an actress of note? I would love to see any of your personae, but this would pique my interest even more.

How in the hell did I miss this until just now?! Ugh, I've been too busy.

SO. Ok. Louise Brooks was beautiful, first off. So many great photos of her.

If I were to imitate art in this instance, I'd do the following:

Dark red lip, carefully applied smokey eye with black kohl eyeliner lightly smudged around the top and bottom lids both with a hearty dose of black mascara. Silent film stars were all about great faces and soulful eyes. She also had a beautiful sleek bob, but my hair is long, so I'd have to pin it under for that feel.

Wardrobe would be a floor length, black silk, spaghetti strapped chemise, bare feet; all of the above would be stretched out languidly across a velveteen chaise, head propped up on the arm, eyes closed. My right arm tucked beneath my head, the other falling off the side of the chaise to the floor. Perhaps one knee pulled up slightly, allowing the silk to slide down a bit, exposing a creamy white thigh.

Women were so slinky sexy in the 20's.

I sit here.... dirty, unshaven, barefoot and listening to Sia songs while drinking a cup of Dunkin' Donuts hazelnut coffee. My glass desk reveals my well worn favorite sweats, and a white v-neck double x t-shirt.... I think I'll shower tomorrow...

 

[RedheadedHaze]

Revived...

Pose for me, people!

 

[Ubermenschen]

Seems like somebody loves Oxfords

 

[RedheadedHaze]

Seems like somebody loves Oxfords

Man, I SO do love them. I swear, they make them in better colors for men than they do for women. I hit Macy's and go to the menswear section and can literally get LOST in the tie and shirt selections/combinations. Swoony shit, right there.

Ok. So. Let's see.

Today, we're doing ethereal artist vibe...

I'm comfortably reclined in my leather office chair, ensconced in a knee length shift, sleeveless, with buttons up the front and a mandarin collar. The hue is a gradual fade from royal blue, to sea blue, to pale blue by the time it dusts the tops of my thighs and ties loosely at my back. Naked smooth legs, my mermaid tattoo complimenting the ocean colors of my dress. Bare feet, nude toe polish, a jingling anklet and a silver banded toe ring.

My red hair has been cut and is now growing back out, but it's styled in a sleek bob and I have electric blue eyeliner on today with a smokey smudge around the edges of my eyes and black mascara. Nude lips...

My customary specs are on the bridge of my nose, helping me sort through stacks of music. Lost in the time and space continuum that stacks of CD's transports one to, I am pretty well oblivious to anything going on around me except for humming along softly to Adele's newest album playing in the background...

***************

Paint your picture for me today, Lit posters... Are you casual cool today? Business sleek? Girl next door? Cotton and Lace? College frat boy denim?

 

[RedheadedHaze]

This mornings imagery contains very little. I hope you won't be disappointed.

Soft, mussed hair, no makeup, a leather corded necklace with a silver heart around my neck, a ribbed white tank top, no bra, and a very sheer pair of rather skimpy panties.

I'm laid back in my leather chair, one leg dangling over the left arm of the chair, the other propped up on a rung underneath my desk, wireless keyboard in my lap.

The rain is softly falling outside and Led Zeppelin is playing softly out of my speakers...

Good day to be a lazy girl...

 

[ryan63]

You have made my morning with that "image". What Zeppelin are you listening to? For some reason I was thinking Houses of the Holy...

 

[RedheadedHaze]

I love just about every and all Zeppelin. If I could bring back any one band in it's entirety, it would be them. Or Queen. Freddy Mercury was so innovative.

I was actually listening to D'yer Mak'er.

I'm glad I could make your morning. Make mine and play along...what's your visage consist of this morning?
