LOL! Have you ever heard of an interval timer or a tripod? ;) ~ Lonnit

Almost unbelievable: pressing the shutter release for 4 seconds while standing on the window sill, clinging to the window jam with one hand, facing the ceiling and holding a heavy 10D in the other hand, no chance to look through the viewfinder, all this without falling down - and the result is this great shot... Are you working as a high-wire circus artist? ;-) I like how this shot is open for different interpretations.

This is FUN & a little trashy! So I like it. Nice touch with the disheveled blind.

The "whole" pose might have been an interesting shot as well! :) I like the horizontal lines of the blinds against the vertical of your legs. I think the bricks might have been distracting. But, with the right side pulled up, as it is, leaves the "jumper" option open to the viewer. - Henry

Knew this was yours Lonnit - great shot. Now if the blinds and window had been open all the way, we might think this was supposed to be a "jumper"! ;-) CJ

Well, that explains the lack of sharpness in the original! Apparently it was purely user error. I don't know how it could have happened b/c I've never shot anything in f/32 EVER! I'm a wide-open shooter. I never go over f/5.6 unless I've got dang good reason to do so. And, as for holding the pose... I was taller than ceiling height there, so I was desperately clinging onto the little metal edge of the window jam, with my back arched and my face against the ceiling! ~ Lonnit

Very inventive and definitely on topic. The 4s @ f/32 is kind of interesting, as well. Was that intentional? Wow, you can really hold a pose, girl! Great legs, too!! Warm fuzzies, -mikey
