Description
It was recently suggested that I attempt some "Atlas poses". While I make no claim of being "built like Atlas", and felt rather inadequate, I talked this over with a local photographer friend and we decided to give it a try. I certainly realize there are things, and as there almost always are, that could be better with these, but both the photographer and I put some work and effort into them, so I hope they're useful.This photo was kindly taken by ~GlacierLightPhoto . If you're inclined, please check out his work. I think he keeps getting better and better.

Hi. I've just read the comment you left on this photo.
I have to say I love mythology (though I don't work only with that theme), and, Greeks and Romans and the body cult, where one was only beautiful if he/she had the perfect muscled body. Many artists, like Boris Vallejo, have conducted several works around that idea of the "perfect body", but I prefer to search for normal/common anatomy to apply on my works. I believe they work better, being realistic enough. In any case, once again thanks for making this photos happen.

I like your perspective, though I also have to realize it's perhaps frustratingly uncommon from the perspective of a 47 year old male model. But, still, I suppose I model because I enjoy it, and certainly not because I'm trying to impress anyone with any physique or anything of that nature. I know where reality lies there.
