I would think her incentive would be to go on a strict diet, let those awful tan lines fade and then come back next summer!
Of course, there's also the possibility that she just dropped 100 pounds and feels sexy!
so are you saying only pretty skinny people are allowed to have pics taken ?

Dress choice and dune damage aside, I always thought she was kind of purty, myself... I love my "big" friends, they're the most huggable.
But I bristle when any of us here makes comments on people's looks... what if they come here and see it? If someone took my pic on the beach and posted it, my freckles and scraggly-beach-hair sure wouldn't stand up to public scrutiny, that's for sure. How many of us really could?

Absolutely not! I probably should have kept my thoughts to myself. My first reaction when I saw this photo last year was that she was drawing attention to the non-so-attractive parts of herself via the tan lines, and the dress doesn't flatter her figure. And she's standing on the dunes, which still angers me when I see the photo!
Sorry if I offended anyone. Everyone has instantaneous reactions to photos, etc, be they positive or negative, that run through our brains. I should have kept this one to myself.
Mea culpa!
Hey, at least you admitted it! That takes a lot and we've all been there & done the exact same thing! I certainly have!luvthebeach said:Absolutely not!

I agree. I wouldn't want my photo posted either. I cringe whenever I see some of the not-so-flattering photos posted by some members, such as an innocent swimmer adjusting her swimsuit (and certainly unaware that someone is lurking behind her taking her photo!) This photo just struck me, because in her case the person in the photo planned the shot, clothes, etc. As I said in another post, I apologize if my comment was offensive. I'm sure she's a very nice person. I'll keep my thoughts to myself in the future. Now if those camera lurkers would only do the same.......THEY post unflattering photos on the board that THEY think are funny, but how do they know that the subject of their photo won't come upon the site? You can bet that it crosses my mind when I'm on the beach that someone may be out there shooting photos without my knowledge!

Hey now. That girl with the "juicy" swimsuit was a hottie. If you ever see photos taken by me of ugly or overweight people, simply to make fun of them, you have my permission to slap me - hard! Deal?;-)
