Didn't quite get my hand in the right location. Whoops.

Great photography requires dedication, time and effort.

But above all there are costs involved as well.

Equipment, props and model fees, not to mention time,

are all "out-of-pocket" expenses for the artist.

A ghoonghat is a headcovering or headscarf, worn in the Indian subcontinent, by some married Hindu, Jain and Sikh women to cover their heads, and often their faces.

In ghoonghat practice, facial veiling observed by married women is known as Laaj (Sanskrit: लज्जा, Lajja - modesty, honor). In veiling practice, it literally means "To keep (one's) modesty, shame and honor".

"Modesty is invisibility...Never forget it. To be seen--to be seen--is to be...penetrated. What you must be girls, is impenetrable."

— Margaret Atwood

... and setting modesty aside, I sometimes can't believe that there is a man, me, behind these photos! What I mean is that regardless of beauty values, which is subjective, I don't find too many traces of the man I am, in Cristy's images.

 

This is the case for so many of us and it is admirable how proficient we can get in the art of feminine illusion; with the proper use of countless enhancers. Most of the enhancers are used by women but some are specific for men who want to look like women. Thank God for female vanity and present day technology!

... y dejando la modestia por un lado, a veces no puedo creer que sea un hombre, yo, el que está detrás de estas fotos! Lo que quiero decir es que sin entrar en valores de belleza, que son subjetivos, me cuesta encontrar rasgos del hombre que soy, en las fotos de Cristy.

 

Este es el caso de la mayoría de nosotras y es admirable lo diestras que nos podemos volver en le arte de la ilusión femenina; con la ayuda de incontables artilugios. La mayoría de estos artilugios son utilizados por las mujeres pero algunos son específicos para hombres que pretendemos lucir como mujeres. ¡Hay que dar gracias a Dios por la vanidad femenina y por la tecnología actual!

There is a special kind of smile that does not reject a compliment — it simply pretends to be modest for one more second.

A small pause, closed eyes, a softened face.

The compliment has already reached her, but the answer still keeps its gentle playfulness.

 

Dedicated to Lelya, goddess of love.

Small modesty with a hat of the undergrowth

Modesty becomes her

If you were beginning to form the opinion that I enjoy the soft sensual caress of satin on my skin, then you'd be correct

Modesty made her own Mac to be just like Daddy

"Simplicity is the companion of truth as modesty is of the knowledge."

Some modesty issues to deal with when wearing a dress with a slit like that - and yes there's a similar one on the other side! A shot from the 2006 archives - there's another pic of the dress already on here ...

Well I have to retain some modesty hence why the bra is still on lol.

 

I have just been asked to explain the coding that sometimes replaces my narrative. its nothing special just something the camera phone put in the description and for some reason I cannot enter a narrative from my phone.

 

Been a funny day today, Had my hair done, went to see my parents, went home them went to the shop with my wife came home had lunch all be it a late one then had the bath. sadly the hair wont survive the experience but hell I enjoyed it while it lasted :-)

 

I was getting some funny sideways look while having my hair done today by the lady next to me, she was totally engrossed by me not sure she could understand it all. she was getting on a bit although by the time her hair had been done it took 15 years off her easily, she did look good.

Trying, unsuccessfully, to protect what little modesty I have left

A petal covering the most intimate of this red rose ... Passion and modesty.

I don't think that i posted this video (perhaps an unusual streak of modesty?), so here are excerpts.
