‘May the gods defend me from heroes with duct tape. And heroes always seem to have duct tape.’
– Rick Riordan, The Burning Maze
We’re moving house at the moment. There are boxes and paper and tape everywhere…
How could I resist?

‘I’m really sorry that I cheated so much. But I guess that’s just the way things are.’
– Lolita
This is late because we were moving house this weekend and there was chaos everywhere!! But also because it was surprisingly difficult to take! If I hadn’t already written a review of the movie over at Sex, Love and Videotape, I might have changed my mind about using this movie poster in my collection…
But I’m happy with the result, and I’m even happier that I now have some incredible heart sunglasses ?

‘I thought about the word ‘profile’ and what a weird double meaning it had. We say we’re looking at a person’s profile online, or say a newspaper is writing a profile on someone, and we assume it’s the whole them we’re seeing. But when a photographer takes a picture of a profile, you’re only seeing half the face… It’s never the way you would remember seeing them.’
– David Levithan, Every You, Every Me

‘To change any behaviour we have to slow down and act intentionally rather than from habit and impulse.’
– Henna Inam, Wired for Authenticity: Seven Practices to Inspire, Adapt, & Lead
For Throwback Thursday this year, I’ve decided to look back at my most popular images from 2015-2018, the first 4 years that I took part in Sinful Sunday and shared erotic images (2019 wasn’t a full blogging year so I’m skipping it in this review). Some weeks I’m not using the number 1 most popular image as I’ve thrown it back on a Thursday before, but they’re definitely top 5!
Today’s photo was originally taken in November 2015 and was called ‘The Proper Way to Behave.‘ It’s one of my favourite photos ever but I do like this more focussed edit.

‘And for the first time in my life, I felt beautiful. Finally part of the earth. I touched the soil, and he loved me back.’
– Lee Holloway, Secretary
I love this poster for Secretary almost as much as I love the movie! It’s sexy and submissive and just stunning.
I hope my recreation can do it justice…

‘Beauty I’d always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can’t say any more’

‘You have to feel the bite of the wind to appreciate the warmth of a winter coat.’
⁃ Fennel Hudson, A Meaningful Life
Today’s photo also includes the gorgeous Katteroo – when the two of us met, both wearing such brightly coloured coats, we just had to use them in a photo…

‘Remember those posters that said, “Today is the first day of the rest of your life”? Well, that’s true of every day but one – the day you die.’
– Lester Burnham, American Beauty
For a few FebPhotoFest posts this month and definitely those on Sundays, I’m going to (try to) recreate a famous sexy movie poster!
You may or may not know that I also write a feminist sex positive movie blog over at Sex, Love and Videotape and I wanted to tie these posters in with my reviews.
First up in this crossover challenge is American Beauty – 1999’s Best Picture Oscar winner but not nearly my favourite movie from that year. Is it feminist? Is it sex positive? Is it good?! Click here to read my review….
