Self-Portrait Day: Objects of Desire

This blog is currently seeking contributions for the latest in its ongoing series of Self-Portrait Days. For this one, you are asked to distinguish yourself based on who (or what) inspires your lust. Everyone from regular commenters to silent readers are encouraged to participate. Please pick no more than five objects of desire then send me your choices via any or all of the following modes of representation: images (as email attachments), text, imbedded video, links to whatever, artwork, etc. Your objects can be anyone: famous, obscure, friend, foe, stranger, human or not. Short text(s) explaining your choices are very welcome, even encouraged, but not a requirement. Please send me your self-portrait contributions by email to this address: dcooperweb @gmail.com. The deadline is your bedtime in your time zone on Monday, July 13th. If you have any questions about this SPD or how to participate, just post them in the current post's comments section, and I will answer asap. Please contribute if you can, and thanks a lot.
