You know you need more equipment when the size of your image is determined by the size of the posterboard stuck to your wall. *sigh*
Either I need to paint a room white, or buy a roll of paper. *rolleyes*
I had a different one up for "Textures" since day one of entries:
But, when I saw that there were almost a fifth as many entries in "Fitness" as there were in "Textures", I got our 16-year-old to let me spray him with a water bottle. He's a good sport. :)
I wish my posterboard were larger, his face is cuter than his bod. But, I might be a bit prejudiced. Moms usually are. *sigh*
POST CHALLENGE: Oh My WORD! How cool is a ribbon!?! Son is going to hit the roof with joy. How many 16-year-olds can say they won a worldwide fitness challenge? *Wink Grin*
THANKS bunches for the votes and the comments and the ribbon. Fabulous!
*mumbles to self* I am SO GLAD I ditched that dried apple
EVEN LATER POST CHALLENGE: LOL @ all of the folks saying they're embarrassed to call a 16-year-old hot. He IS hot! LOL! And I'm his mom. It's okay... Pretty is pretty no matter the age. *grin* You didn't do anything but look at what we showed you. *smile*
Regarding the jeans choice. We actually discussed them vs gym shorts and decided that since it was for a Fitness challenge not an Exercise challenge, that folks can be fit in regular clothes,too. I like the "misfitness" of it. THANKS for the comments!

Congratulations to my long lost sister! : ) I prefer that to "my husband's other wife". HA! Awesome shot and, girl, just look at the row of 7's you are rackin' up on your profile. Fanstastic!
Look at you go! Congrats on your ribbon. This is a great image and congrats for getting your son to pose. Think he could give my hubby some training tips????
Fantastic image!! Also glad I read his age before commenting, lol. Don't we all deserve to see this under age cutie's face? :P Congrats to you & your son on a great finish!
so glad I didn't comment prior to reading he's only 16 ... I was having some VERY inappropriate thoughts ... he's young enough to be MY son! Anyway, congrats on the ribbon, it's very well deserved!
This is your 16 year old SON???? Darn. I wanted to drool and make totally inappropriate comments about his hunkiness. . .but. . . not about my friend's 16-year old son :) But Wow, Lydia! What an AMAZING photo! Congratulations!!!
congratulations on the ribbon! :) I feel stupid about my comment now knowing that he is only 16!! :/ Either way, it was a really great image -- and I think the composition of it was perfect (so yay for that small poster board!). :P
Most excellent! Congrutulations :)
Very well deserved. Good call to go with Fitness. Thanks for the fun write up on the shot. I can totally relate about the white background being small enough ;)
Congrats on the ribbon, an honor to share the front page with you for a week. Great shot, only thing I would have changed are the jeans, I think sportswear would have gotten you a higher score but maybe fortunately for me you didn´t do it that way :)
Congrats on the red! Hot, hot, image......I'm so glad I read the about before I said anything more!! I hope your son really enjoys his moment in the sun, or in model reality, ...under the spray bottle....! Congrats to both of you! Nice image!
Congrats Lydia! Awesome photo. Your son must be pretty excited about this too. I'm sure all the girls he knows will be thrilled about this as well LOL.
Yep, front page. I even nailed it when I told ya that "Blue Steel" was gonna get the blue, but I am a bit biased towards women than men when it comes to shots like this. ;-) Great score Lydia!
a simple shot well executed, the street pants instead of workout gear might make this a bit less likely to sell as stock, but Im guessing red ribbon here
oo, I'm having a hard time judging this without bias.... Okay, must think analytically about photo, not about beautiful model with sexy abs, and arms, and....no! okay, think think! ;) (seriously though, this is a great capture) 9
This should finish very well compared to the other (non stock) images. I haven't seen all of them yet but so far out of about 25 images this is the first "stock" photo I've seen.
