When there are no kids around......

my husband and I can get kinda bored.  I had this vision of us on our motorcycles, in the nude, displaying our body art.  Armed with some free time, a sheet, tripod, and a remote we set out materialize my vision.  After an hour of readjusting the tripod/angle, lighting, and our bodies....I was pretty happy with the results. Over the years Ben (my husband) has grown accustom to my obsessive nature, my need to do it over and over again until I am happy with the finished product.  He was definitely a trooper for this, and all in all it turned out to be quite a fun day in the garage for us.
      My satisfaction with this photo session inadvertently led me to blogging.... out of fear that these shots were too much for facebook (fb) to handle, I let them linger in a folder on my laptop.  Everyday Ben would log onto his fb page from the other room and yell "Why didn't you post those pictures?"  He was obviously anxious to share these with the cyber world.  After two weeks I reluctantly posted them to my photography page (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Heidi-Benard-Photography/172459496152062) on fb.  Within twenty four hours I was contacted by fb, my pictures were removed, and I was told to read about what constitutes pornography.  This photo in particular was flagged:
I was starting to feel creatively stiffled by fb, and decided that the world of blogging may be a more apporpriate place for expressing myself.  I never considered myself much of a writer, so if you bare with me....I hope my photos speak for themselves
