Formal Nude Pose : Stock (10 years older)

Published:

Description

I had wanted to re-shoot a stock image in November of last year to mark its 10th anniversary, but I've ended up being 4 months late.  But better late than never, I guess!

So, much has changed in 10 years.  I'm now 50, and 6 years ago I was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer and had a lumpectomy.  During chemotherapy all my hair fell out.

I have done my best to recreate the same pose as November 2006.  It's a "warts and all" photo.  No Photoshopping.  This is the aging process including my lumpectomy scar and cellulite, expanding waistline and skin that is starting to sag.  I wonder if I'll be around in 10 years time to do it again?  (Or brave enough!)

Here's a link to the original image:
