When I first started to write A Leap of Faith I had a specific goal in mind. Sir had asked me to tell the story of how I became the woman I am today. But then I saw posts from other bloggers, and they led me to a weekly photographic meme called Sinful Sunday. I spent weeks just enjoying the posts that were being shared before I was finally able to join in.
My first time was for week 368. The post – A Strong Confident Woman.
Over the last two and a half years I have shared a number of posts in my Sinful Sunday category. There has been a variety of images, and I adore all of them for a variety of reasons. Mostly it is the memories that they trigger in me. That first one was taken for a task, and when I looked at the image on my phone it was the first time I remember seeing myself as Sir sees me.
A few weeks ago I had another task.
To create myself a new photographic task. That was all, no further instruction. This kind of vaguary causes two things to happen for me. The first is a flood of fear, absolute terror that no matter what I come up with it won’t be good enough. As the adrenaline subsides though the second thing occurs. I get a wave of creativity. This goes from really rubbish ideas that blossom into something exciting. And in this case, hopefully, it would be beautiful too.
I decided upon naked outdoor yoga. I initially planned on dartmoor, but my day was slipping away and so I walked to a quiet graveyard not far from my house. It was a glorious day and the autumn sun shone through the trees. Using my new tripod and an app on my phone I got some lovely pictures before my nerves gave out. I wanted to look back on my posts and when I saw what my first share was I knew that I had to chose this image. I’m the same lady, naked in the sunshine, celebrating life.
But now I am a stronger, more confident woman.
What a difference 138 weeks makes!
I wanted to share the images for the scavenger hunt, another of the places that I like to go and indulge inner exhibitionist. I decided to share Sex With Rose’s post, The Graveyard. It wasn’t until I went to grab the link I realised that her stunning photo was shared for Sinful Sunday week 180.

A Stronger, More Confident Woman was first published on A Leap of Faith.
From the story of how the barefoot sub became the woman she is today, to toy reviews, with a hefty dose of contemplation, a sprinkling of erotica and a LOT of nudity in between, you can be sure to find something to tickle your fancy at A Leap Of Faith.
Wow … so LOVE this … such a beautiful photo so beautifully posed. And a wonderful location.
Gorgeous !!!

Thank you K. It is such a special place, I was glad to find a quiet spot for my practise. N xx
Beautiful pose and you definitely look strong and confident in this!
Thank you Muse, I’m getting there. I wonder what I’ll be like in another 2/3 years?
That is definitely a confident but also strong looking woman. I love this outdoor image and I enjoy the nakedness in images outdoor. The juxtaposition is wonderful.

Thank you Missy. I agree, nakedness outdoors is quite special. N x
What a sexy pose! I wish my back would arch like that!
Thank you Storm. I wish my core was strong enough to sustain this pose, but maybe it is all just practise?
Love this – fab post for week 500! x
Thank you 🙂x
This is fantastic. I love a bit of yoga and I LOVE a graveyard. The two together is pretty special

Thank you Molly, I couldn’t agree more! N
Reminds me of a Flyleaf song Fully alive and she knows How to believe in futures
I shall go and have a look at those. But yes, fully alive about sums it up. Especially given the surroundings!
You exude power in this.
Absolutely gorgeous image, and you are a stunning woman!

Absolutely wonderful image and wow, you’re so brave! Confident indeed!
Naked outdoor yoga sounds fabulous! And this is a beautiful photo!
I’m not really a yoga type of guy…but I think I could be convinced with the thought of naked outdoor yoga… just saying! lol
Then I think I should start a movement (when it starts getting warmer)
This is one of the most powerful images I’ve ever seen. So much strength and beauty…it is stunning!
Thank you Bee!
