Bulge Concealer

I've been practising the "halfway house between the 2-3 quarters" pose where you don't stand straight for the camera. This pose is said to hide the bulge.

Normally, I don't like to pose.  I just stand straight, smile and wait for the shutter to click.  I must have been in a crazy mood when this picture was taken.  A tourmate once told me, if you don't strike a pose for the camera then you won't get to look at the pictures and laugh.

As for the bulge, I don't know if it was the thick vest or the pose that did the trick.  (NOTE: The vest, which I had bought from Suzhou, China, was not made from real fur).

No animal should be killed for its skin or fur.

This was taken in November 2012.  That's Sally, a really cool and beautiful lady.  I was just standing and looking into the camera when she came over and showed me how to strike a pose.

Back to the issue of the pot belly,  another way to conceal or reduce it is to take a deep breath and hold it in until you hear the shutter click.

Another trick that I can think of is to crop any image from the waist down.

Any other suggestions?
