I love the light. I love the belly. I love a naked woman who reads...

Naked is the ooooonly way to read, my sweet. There are those who say that all things are better done naked, but Madame C. finds this approach...chilly.

We are in favor of going about, at least, in Pashmina and a smile.

Juliana...most things are done better when you're naked. ;-)

I love this type of artwork. It's always looked so graceful and tasteful, even when it reveals what society calls "indecent."

Good job.

Juliana said...

Thanks, Joe. I'll try to find more tasteful pictures of naked ladies. Just for you. ;)

But you know something? It's harder to find a sexy picture of a belly than you'd think! I think that's going to be my little icon. Keep your eyes open for good ones. No bunnies - they're too "technicolor" you know?

Think Jazz and perfume and satin sheets and... oh you get the picture.

ooooooooh. I'm looking at that gorgeous pic and thinking ...

Pilates.

(I do love the light and shadow, by the way.)

Yes, Pilates - keep meaning to try it but just fall back on the old elliptical in the garage. That and dance. I am SO behind the eight ball in digitally documenting the "moments of my life" so to speak.

I am awed by your mastery of horses. A city girl, I've had limited riding in my life. Of horses that is. But I did know a horseman once. Oh NO see what you've done... I'll have to write something just for him.

Now this is why we need more women bloggers - in addition to the charming lads and their penchant for naked ladies. Women like the head trip of the story. Or so they tell me. (likely because I'm writing from the perspective of a woman).

Never tried writing from his point of view. Hmm... I wonder what that would feel like...
