I’m not sure, but I think you can upload a video from your picture library directly to this site. Need to check with Ra on that one.
I Think.... your first attempt with pictures are pretty good. I like your outfit and the amount of rope that you used.
As for a suggestion, I would less rope, tieing the ankles, then the caves, thighs and so on. But that’s just me.

Thank you! After some research I found out that my video was just too big. Almost 400 MB, so I lowered the bitrate, which translated to a 120MB video and voila! I was able to upload it 😁

You need some sort of lighting. I took the plunge and got a couple of photo-floods off eBay a few years ago. Two photo lights, complete with tripods. I'm not sure but you might even be able to get some photo lights that fit in your household light fitting. In the UK we have Bayonet fitting as standard, but you can get Edison screw for wall lights, so you may be able to get an Edison screw fitting for your lights?

There are even dedicated threads...

A little update, I was finally able to touch my elbows while tying them behind my back. I was pretty close but those last centimeters were somewhat painful.
It feels fantastic since now my tied arms act as a single body, and no micro sliding is possible making the tie more secure.
Previously I could struggle for some time and get out of the tie, now it's impossible without an external aid.
One draw back is that the extra pressure makes my arms ache more quickly than before.

Previously I was using a simple coil and I was sliding my arms inside, that was very floopy and didn't really keep the rope in place.
Since I got a longer rope, I started learning new ties from the Duchy. I found out that the Hobble tie was similar to my original coil idea, but x100 better. I prepare the tie beforehand so I can just slide my arms inside, and then with the help of a small hook I adjust the height to be elbow level, pretty much like Guisi does.
I started very cautiously and with plenty of distance between both ends. After some tries I slowly decreased the distance until I could finally touch my elbows 😊 . At that point only a single wrap around is necessary to secure the tie and follow up with a simple chest harness.

Does anybody have some experience using clothespins? Do you have any suggestions to make it a more enjoyable experience?
In my last session I tried to add something different so I decided to try some 'slight' punishments. Enter the clothespin, however I feel I underestimated the might of this simple tool because just a few seconds were enough to make me shed some tears... that burning sensation is no joke.
Now, I know this is going to sound very weird but for a few moments, I really enjoyed it... and in some way I want more of it. Can you share your experiences or knowledge about incorporating BDSM tools into a session?

there are clothes pins and there are clothes pins... different models have different tensions, and pad shapes that can have a big effect on the feel of them
We have some "delicate non marking ones' at home that I can wear for quite a while... infact ive just walked the dog with them on...
Large cushioned pad, still pinch but spread over a larger area
RE: Self bondage struggle! - Tinker D - 12 Apr 2021
I used wood clothes pins and I also trim the heads. Makes them easer to pot on and remove.
Stay away from plastic and the small ones. They do hurt.
Also, I don’t put clothes pins on directly on my nipples, but just behind them.
This way, they won’t slide or slip off. Also, you Can hot glue vibrators or use string with weights to stemulate and tug on your nipples.
