"I should only believe in a God that would know how to dance. And when I saw my devil, I found him serious, thorough, profound, solemn: he was the spirit of gravity- through him all things fall. Not by wrath, but by laughter, do we slay. Come, let us slay the spirit of gravity!" - Nietzsche
That is indeed a nice photo, nice colours.
oh, oh, could you tell me how it is when you have been there. Last time my husband and I went there it didn't work out again.
My husband is kind of at home in that city. Great place, it is.
If I am found adequate for such a calendar, I would be willing, although I am not sure about other people's opinions.
One has to laugh before being happy, because otherwise one risks to die before having laughed.

We'll have to find photographers in our varying locations who will work for free and know how to do bikini shoots.
I think it would be fun.
It's probably not calendar-worthy, but I like this one:
I'm dressed in (what I am assured) is standard dress for a Bengali teacher, to celebrate Saraswati Puja (a festival celebrating education). Two of my housemates are from Kolkata, and wanted to do a big bash to celebrate it - including providing all of us with costumes. My Polish housemate, Agata, in particular looked stunning in a sari.
As for the teacher look, I'm told the wine glass is optional...

Also important: This being a literature forum swimsuit calendar, the subjects in the photos should be exhibiting books, on the off chance that people will actually notice what they're carrying. So just for fun, what book would you all be carrying in your pictures?
For myself, I'd have a hardcover edition of War and Peace, both because it's not a typical "beach read", and because hoisting that monster will bring out the biceps.

Remember this, my friends: there are no such things as bad plants or bad men. There are only bad cultivators.

This is really awesome Lok. I think it should be the front cover of the calendar.
Great idea, Cal. Maybe you could have Les Mis in your other hand, that way you could do some bicep curls before the shoot...
I think I'd choose the obvious- Lolita
Yes, yes we would. Please re-post your speedo picture. It would shine a bit of light on my bleak world.
