The Joys of Teaching

Journal Entry: Sun May 11, 2008, 12:03 AM
Not sure this would have had any better results here in New Zealand. Be interested in comments from the parents amongst you!

"Teacher sacked for posing nude
9 May 2008

A NORTHERN beaches primary school teacher has been sacked for appearing in a sealed nude photo shoot in Cleo magazine with her husband.

Church Point resident Lynne Tziolas was dismissed from her full-time temporary position at Narraweena Public School last Friday.

The Year 1 teacher, who has been at the school for two years, has begun legal action against the NSW Education Department citing unfair dismissal."

Yeah, I hear they had a big Nocturne launch party in Auckland last night, the mag goes on sale this week, cant wait to see it!

Well it is a different era and Weston didnt have photoshop! The amount of effort required to produce a shot has reduced substantially and quality has improved too.

Magazine printedyet?

Ive just been working on a photography assignment about Edward Weston, and I told my tutor that although his nudes were technically good, that I thought yours were alot better and more creative, that your photography captured the beauty of the naked form far better than he did! Its a big compliment but you deserve it...I think you are the best nude photographer in NZ (not that I look at many nude pics of course!)...

Putting clothes on a model is akin to putting a parking lot over a field of flowers.

In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.
