My Left Butt

In this year's The Photographer's Market, one of the magazines, Left Behind, has this quote:

"Left Behind desperately needs cover art featuring the left buttock; both color and b/w (model releases required) buys 10 photos from freelancers/issue.
Subject line says - Quarterly literary magazine of poetry, short stories..etc.

Someone tell me what it's like.....I'm too scared to click it.

500 Reasons To Pick Up Your Camera

Dutch photographer Pieter Wisse posts five active photographers a week to his blog 500 Photographers. I check it daily and have been taking notes since it began. He includes all disciplines of photography, from photojournalism to the world of fashion.

Damn, that's a big softbox !!

Nothing more pathetic than a beautiful girl in a photo and I can't take my eyes off the 10-ft softbox in the background.
You can see more of the softbox (and Jennifer) in frame 6 and 7.
