On 27th we can learn how to take Erotic photography with Jim Guzel. How do you capture the essence of someone in photo? And even more how can you show their inner erotic spark? Come learn how to take erotic photos or be photographed. Bring your own digital cameras.

Here is what Jim has to say about it:

"I believe that what we perceive as human beauty is comprised of about 50% emotional honesty and openness.  Nowhere is this truer than in the photographing of erotica.  I find that it can be wonderful fun to hold the camera or be in front of it.  In this special Sandbox event, I plan to share tips and techniques  that I have learned in my career as a fine art nude and boudoir photographer in how to assist the subject(s) in locking their emotional best and how the photographer may make the best of his/her equipment.  That's photographic equipment, you silly thing!

I encourage everyone to come dressed for fantasy fun.  Even if you don't intend to get in front of the camera, it will help set the festive mood.  And who knows, you may change your mind.  Bring whatever camera equipment you own, digital would be by far the best since it would allow sharing the images while it happens.  I don't see any way that issues of privacy can really be assured.  So if you want to keep your identity a secret, wear a mask.  It will add to the erotic nature of the event as well as providing a disguise."

Try this web listing to find places in the area that sell masks.

May I suggest that those who plan to attend begin to form groups through Sandbox discussions of two to four people with complimentary interests and make some plans in how you might interact at this event?

Imagination is invaluable.  And bear in mind that the camera loves exaggeration.

This event will be on 2/27/08. More on Wednesday Sandbox Gatherings
