[QUOTE="Browncoat, post: 34330, member: 1061"] The majority of the people on these boards (including myself) suffers from the same problem, Will. That's not intended to be hurtful to anyone, it's just a fact. It's why most of us are more comfortable taking photos of "stuff" than people, and why most people photos that you do see are candid/street...because the subject is unaware. Working with people and posing is difficult, and often more so for men. Posing is a standalone art form that takes a lot of practice. Some will laugh at this, but it's the best advice I can give: Get your girlfriend to pose nude for you as often as possible. The lines of the female form are beautiful, especially when photographed in black and white. With a willing model, you can learn about posing at an astronomical rate. It's the best way to study the human form and learn how to emphasize certain features and curves. [/QUOTE]
