Normalising Nudity – Powerful Photo Series
Don’t panic, I’m not about to strip off but I was intrigued by this article in the Mail Online today. A new photography project featuring naked Mormon women ‘hopes to shed light on the religion’s strict codes of modesty’. Well that’s what the blurb says and I wonder if it’s true.

We have published several tutorials relating to their photo apps in the past, if you’ve missed those go here. The confusing issue with this developer and their apps is that they keep changing their app names, we’re not entirely why this is so, whether it’s to get users to stump up more cash or whether there are patent issues outstanding, we’ll look into this… ProCam 2 though is proving quite popular with users despite a mixed bag of reviews – this price drop though could be just…
