Description
A draft of my digital photo term project. I want to get a nice semi-nude shot of myself (with help) displaying my back. I want to glorify my piercings, but in a more photographically traditional way.This was supposed to be my final shot, unfortunately it came out very very noisy so it has been demoted to a test shot. I'm wondering if the noise was due to the limitations of a point-and-shoot or was it because I was indoors without good lighting (this was shot in the morning).
I need advice for what to do with the background, because the current wall isn't working. I was planning on Photoshopping it out in the final print, however I am open to advice, criticism and ideas.
As always, I was pierced by the wonderful Rip . Go visit him and tell him how wonderful he is.

Those are piercings? I've never seen that before.
Although I like the way you've put the ribbon through it.
About the background:
You can use a dia projection screen and hand some sheets over it. I'd use a colour matching the ribbon on your back. And maybe a more dynamic pose, this is fine though. Also it might be nice to take the shot in a darkened room and light one side out with a lamp to create a shadowy effect.
One question from my side:
Are those piercings temporarily? Or do you leave them in all the time? Just curious ^_^
Anyway, to cut my story short. I love the pic ^_^

i think this would be fantastic sho in very low light, allmost completly black, so that it doesnt jump out at you, but once its revealed i think it would look fantastic

That makes me wanna rape you...XD
No its beautiful and photoshopping that wall sounds like a good idea. It certainly detarcts from the image. perhaps something dark colored to match the black ribbons?

Thank you my darling! I was thinking of adding some sort of drapery to the background in order to give it a theatrical effect. We shall see!
