auryn — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 17:30:01 EDT

Steve Prue is one of our favorite photographers around, and continues to prove it with these two great sets of photos from Exxxotica NYC. We have cool friends. What can we say?

Here is Steve's set from Friday.

Aaaaand his set from Saturday.

Dashiell Bennett — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 11:40:43 EDT

Today's tabloids have become so dirty and exploitative—not like the good old days of responsible celebrity journalism. It's a little something called "class," people. Look it up! (more sex and weirdness @ Flickr, via sex-and-blogs.com)

Photos By Tatiana Reis: How Naked People Live

Dashiell Bennett — Tue, 09 Sep 2008 09:59:26 EDT

These pictures by Brazilian photographer Tatiana Reis are filled with headless torsos and zoomed-in nipples and various other bodies parts, all attached to fabulous skinny people who have nothing better to do with their time than hang around the house with other fabulous naked people. It's a rough life, but someone has to photograph it and upload to it to the internet so that rest of can enjoy it vicariously.

Pervart: Art Made For, By and Of The Pervs

Dashiell Bennett — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 11:10:48 EDT

If you like art but are bored by paint-by-numbers flower vases and bowls of fruit and pretty pictures of pastures, then maybe you need something a little more, uh ... unique. (And preferably more dirty.) In that case, a blog called Pervart seems like a good place to start. That's how we found this Flickr gallery of remixed porno pictures made super adorable with the addition of things like Space Invaders and our little friend Gizmo. There's more fantastic finds after the jump, even if the site is in need of an update. Man (and woman) cannot live on porno pancakes alone.

We Heart Claudette (And You Will Too)

Jonnobot — Tue, 17 Jun 2008 12:10:15 EDT

Even if she hadn't festooned her Flickr profile and photostream with all those HTML-generated hearts (see? we know how to ♥make them too♥!), we'd still have a lot of love for 21-year-old Buenos Aires-based model and photographer Claudette, who from the looks of things has as much talent at things like lighting and composition as she does managing to get just the right angle to show off her perfect bikini-, thong-, and baby oil-covered ass to best advantage. While she explains that they're not revealing or explicit enough to be considered porn, her photos are certainly hot enough for us to hope that book she's working on is going to be printed on drool-proof paper; we might have to order two copies when it comes out just to be safe. Really, what's not to ♥?

Squeezegirl Brings Out The Squeeze Fetishist In All Of Us

Lux Alptraum — Thu, 24 Apr 2008 09:30:38 EDT

Pity the poor squeeze fetishist: it's hard enough to find photos of sexy models with boa constrictors and elephants, never mind being squeezed by them. That's why we're grateful for Photoshop ... and for artists like Squeezegirl, who has lovingly rearranged a bunch of pixels to make everyone's hot babe-meets-terrifying crushing beast dreams come true. Now if only an artist would come along to make our Stoya Vs. Linda Hunt whipped cream wrestling match fantasy a reality too ... (flickr.com, via Boing Boing)

PictureXS: (Sorta) Like Flickr, But With More Boobs

Lux Alptraum — Thu, 17 Apr 2008 10:58:15 EDT

Tired of Flickr censoring all the free porn that gets uploaded? We are too, but thankfully, there are other options. The latest is one PictureXS, which allows users to anonymously upload and tag photos—and at least for now, no one's hiding the naked chicks. Try searching for some tags, and see what fun photos pop up; since ~~we have nothing better to do this morning~~ we're in a sharing sort of mood today, we'll even get you started with a few below. But do go ahead and have fun finding your own. (You know, until Yahoo buys them out and ends the party for everyone.)

Feral Lingerie Models Caught In The Wild

Lux Alptraum — Fri, 28 Mar 2008 11:03:26 EDT

We've often wondered why so many photographers we feature here have portfolios full of scantily clad models in environments where you wouldn't expect to find scantily clad models: lost out in the fields, traipsing through the forests, posing prettily among the sand dunes ... But finally, we've been presented with a logical explanation: they're feral lingerie models, photographed in their natural habitat. Which, quite frankly, is a relief. Here we were thinking all this time it was just a bunch of sadistic art directors getting off on forcing girls to scuff up their Mahnolos and tear their stockings walking through the brush!

And here we were thinking that all those people who keep inviting us to trade pictures of our ex-girlfriends just wanted to, like, critique our exposure or something! (blogto.com)

Long Exposure Sex: Everybody's Doing It

Dashiell Bennett — Thu, 24 Jan 2008 13:13:35 EST

Have you ever thought about taking pictures of yourself having sex but aren't thrilled by the prospect of looking at yourself having sex? Perhaps you should try the art of long-exposure photography. As several examples posted on Flickr demonstrate, backgrounds and static objects remain while anything that moves fades to a ghostly blur by the simple process of a long exposure time: you can capture your whole act in one still frame and no one has to see the dirty details. (Unless you happen to be a cold fish who just, like, lies there ... and who wants to see that?)

Internext 2008: Never Say Die

DCypher — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 13:19:57 EST

Porn fans all across America are readjusting to life away from Las Vegas this week while combing through terabytes of just out-of-focus photos of their favorite porn starlets from this year's AVN Expo, while porn pros have returned to Porn Valley to resume their daily business of getting paid to grope each other instead of spending days on end not getting paid enough to get groped by porn fans. For brave souls like Hal from Trampstamp Studios, however, this Monday didn't mean escaping from the melon-scented atmosphere of the AVn Expo after all: there are still plenty of porn folk in Las Vegas this week for the adult webmaster confab Internext. Pity our pink-haired friend if you must, but appreciate the fact that he's remained unwavering in his commitment to bring us even more pictures of hot chicks posing under harsh fluorescent lights this week. You know, in case you were starting to miss them or something.

Sex And Psychology With Dr. Joanne

Dashiell Bennett — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 12:52:42 EST

Many people believe that photography allows an artist to peer into the human soul, but when your day job is to peer into the human mind, who knows what kind of stuff you might discover by combining the two disciplines. Dr. Joanne Ratkowski is a psychologist by trade, but she uses that skill to inform her photographs, which capture people in their unusual, unsettling, and—most importantly—sexy sides of life. If you could grab hold of the wildest thoughts and ideas rattling around in your head and put them on film, you could only hope that it would turn out as delightfully kinky and surreal as Dr. Joanne's photolog. Plus, think of the money you would save on therapy bills!

Surreal (And Sexy) Self-Portraits By Miss Aniela

Jonnobot — Tue, 08 Jan 2008 13:11:47 EST

If you're a regular Flickr peruser, odds are you're already acquainted with the photography of Miss Aniela: some of her photos have been favorited hundreds of times, and she's already earned nearly three quarters of a million views on her photostream. Miss Aniela, you see, is a photographer who primarily focuses on self-portraits, and when you consider the fact that her work goes several measures beyond the usual cameraphone-in-a-bathroom-mirror brand of self shots (and that she happens to be pretty darn sexy herself), her popularity isn't so surprising. What is surprising is that it took us so long to stumble upon her work. Now if you'll excuse us, we have some favoriting of our own to do ...

Vintage Porn Rags On Flickr

Dashiell Bennett — Tue, 08 Jan 2008 11:28:10 EST

Everyone is always telling us to look to the future, but we prefer to look back. Why? Because they don't sell porno mags with titles like "Wench" anymore. OK, so maybe that's a good thing—but the girls that looked out teasingly from the covers of those mags are a different breed from the girl you see today, and sometimes we get nostaligic for those days of yesteryear (even if weren't as, um ... alive back then.) As always, Flickr is a great place to track down images of those vintage beauties and we're enjoying this gallery of the covers and pages of good olde smut (with some bonus naughty movie posters.) They may not make 'em like they used to anymore, but thankfully having a nice (magazine) rack has never gone out of style.

Herpetophiles everywhere, rejoice! The lovely model Sarah Soma has joined your ranks. Wearing a ferocious looking dinosaur mask and nothing else, she's come to show us just how sexy those terrible lizards can get ... and what nice boobs they have, too! Can't handle all those sharp teeth and carnivorous longing? You can still appreciate Ms. Soma's sexiness (and boobs) in her non-dino shots too. There's a certain wild twinkle in those eyes we can't resist no matter what she's wearing. Or not wearing, as the case may be.

Footman606 On Flickr: Giantess Fantasies Afoot!

Fleshbot — Mon, 03 Dec 2007 13:35:36 EST

Based on his Flickr handle alone, you'd be correct in assuming that Footman606 had a particular fondness for photos of women's feet. What his alias doesn't tell you, however, is that Footman's brand of fetish also includes a particular fondness for really, really big women's feet ... like the ones he lovingly features in the giantess and crushing fantasy collages he both creates himself and collects from various sources around the web. The results might be too outré as wank fodder for some, but given our busy schedules anywhere we can find at least three of our favorite fantasies combined in one easy-to-peruse package is a welcome discovery indeed.

Amanda Pearson's Obscene Portraits

Lux Nightmare — Mon, 03 Dec 2007 12:33:57 EST

Ever since we saw the flyer for Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art Show floating around New York City a couple of weeks ago, we've been wondering about what this "live obscene drawing" thing is all about. Good thing that lovely (and dirty-minded) artist Amanda Pearson has finally set up a Flickr account so we can finally see just how naughty her naughty caricatures are. If you're feeling overwhelmed by the obscenity—and Amanda's work sometimes does cross that line between the simply "naughty" and full-on filth—she also has some tamer (yet still sexy) artwork on display and more than a few hot shots of herself which are just as artistic as the other stuff, but in a different sort of way.

Captive Culture: Shibari Dreams

Violet Blue — Fri, 02 Nov 2007 12:28:46 EDT

We can totally understand why folks get so passionate about shibari and rope bondage, what with all those hot boob-squishing predicaments and pretty girls trussed to the limits. But the man behind seven-year-old blog Bondage Desire took his passion for the genre to another level and created Captive Culture, a new membership site chock-full of free previews and plenty of erotically bound alt babes. To celebrate making his dream come true, he's offering everyone the chance to download free .zip files of the photo content he first created for his original blog seven years ago. So that tattooed redhead tied with her feet to the buzzing vibrator that you've been dreaming of? She's all yours for a click. See? Everyone's dreams really can come true!

Joy Toy's Flickr Toybox Is Filled With Hot Asian Babes

Fleshbot — Tue, 30 Oct 2007 14:12:45 EDT

There's no shortage of horndogs who use Flickr as a repository for their personal spank banks, but few utilize the medium with the dedication of the user who calls himself Joy Toy ... and who's assembled a photoset comprised of nearly two thousand pictures of sexy Asian babes in various states of undress. The photos range from slickly produced A/V model shots to grainy phonecam images, from full-on naked boob-baring hotness to the more demure bikini modeling and public booty pervcam captures. (And yes, there's even a few chicks with guitars too.) Just make sure you allow yourself plenty of time to explore everything he has to offer—with toys like these to play with, it's a wonder how any of us'll manage to get any work done today.

Messy Feet Finds On Flickr

Hey, there foot fans! We know you like admiring feet and shoes and feet walking in shoes and maybe the two of them together possibly stepping on something, but how do you feeling stepping in something? Like a pool? Or maybe a puddle? Or—and we're just throwing this out there—a baked potato? We have to hand it to "Lee" and his Flickr page for coming up with some pretty creative and downright messy ways to showcase his favorite body parts and their kicky accessories. And if you're wondering if potato foot pancakes really qualifies as a sexual fetish, maybe you should try out the egg and cum omelet cooked up in some of the other photos. Hey, if the kink fits ...

Fluckr Finds Your Filthy Fotos

Sifting through all the cat pictures and out-of-focus vacation slides on Flickr in order to find the kinky indviduals who prefer to post more, um ... interesting fare, has been a popular pastime for a certain breed of blogger and we're glad to see that some folks are still out there fighting the good fight. We're also glad to see that at least one skin blog has expanded its reach beyond the photo-sharing giant to include the most pervy members of DeviantArt and generally anyone else who likes a good naked photo. (And that they provide helpful links back to the original source—there's always more where that came from.) Fluckr may not have the most original name for a blog photo clearinghouse, but you'll quickly see that when it comes to a site like this, words aren't really the point.

365 Hot Photos, The Mofo Way

Dashiell Bennett — Tue, 09 Oct 2007 13:56:22 EDT

You've probably seen a lot of bloggers and other artsy types who post a photo of themselves every single day for a year so that they can very slowly document the long, cold march of time as it descends slowly into the grasp of Death's grim embrace. (Maybe that's just our take.) Well, thankfully at least one of these web shutterbugs—the colorfully named "Mofo"—has decided that rather than look at some lonely dude sitting in his bedroom for one year straight, folks would probably rather see photos that he's taken of 365 hot chicks in various states of undress. Guess what? He's 100% right.

"Poetic Skin" On Flickr

Dashiell Bennett — Fri, 05 Oct 2007 10:45:00 EDT

We so look forward to the weekend because it contains the only six hours of the week that our benevolent taskmasters allow us to sleep. This time, however, we think we've found the perfect photo set to ease us gently into that good night. This Flickr series of a beautiful blonde preparing to drift off to a long summer's nap is making us sleepy ourselves and wishing we had someone similar to crawl under the covers with later. Although, we regret that bedtime does take us away from our beloved filth-hunting time, it's the dreams that keep us a reason to wake up.

Meet Annie Stoner

Fleshbot — Tue, 18 Sep 2007 11:57:40 EDT

We're sort of fascinated by the Flickr stream of Savannah-based musician and amateur nude model Annie Stoner. Is it because she's possessed of a pair of legs that won't quit and what are quite possibly some of the most beautiful breasts (with the perkiest nipples) we've ever seen? The very enthusiastic band of Flickr users who comment on every photo she posts with a devotion that borders on the obsessive? Or the fact that her face is airbrushed in many of her photos to the point where she's practically missing a nose? We might find ourselves squinting at our screens in an effort to understand her better, but one thing's for sure: Annie's fifteen minutes aren't over for us quite yet.

Attack Of The Retro Boobies ... IN 3-D!

Dashiell Bennett — Thu, 23 Aug 2007 15:18:13 EDT

As far as we can tell, there's only one problem that the internet has yet to solve (yep, just one)—how to look at 3-D pictures on your computer monitor. We're betting that most people don't have an extra set of blue and red specs just laying around the house, and even if you do, those in-your-face images don't quite jump off that iPhone screen like you would hope they would. (Desktops are soooo May 2007.) Despite these technical limitations, you can still enjoy this Flickr collection of retro nude pinups from the '50s and earlier. They're shot in that classic old timey style that everyone loves; they're just a tad fuzzier than normal. Staring a little too long might you give a bit of a headache, but that still beats renting Jaws 3 one more time.

Stormtroopers In Love

Dashiell Bennett — Wed, 15 Aug 2007 11:00:05 EDT

If you were married to a Star Wars fan, and maybe at some point the two of you acquired a pair of matching stormtrooper helmets, which of your favorite "scenes" would you choose to act out? The blaster fight in the halls of the Death Star? Or maybe a naughty game of "These aren't the droids we're looking for?" How about the scene where the one cloned soldier frolics down by the lake in her bikini? (Check the DVD extras. It's there.) Red and Jonny are one particular fun-loving couple that chose to do exactly that with their toys and were nice enough to share their personal deleted scenes on Flickr. They like to wear their helmets a lot of other places too (like the galactic grocery store), but obviously we prefer to remember the sexier moments of the saga. Best of all ... no Jar-Jar.

Valentina Learns Japanese

Fleshbot — Mon, 13 Aug 2007 13:21:09 EDT

We've had ample opportunties to, er, bone up on our foreign language skills over the years via many of the discoveries we've posted about on Fleshbot, but for whatever reason we never manage to retain any vocabulary aside frombeing able to say "Enter if you're over 18" in 27 languages. So we're paying special attention to this recent Flickr photoset by our friend Kahlo at Dadanoias, in which a lovely model attempts to decipher her way through a life-size Japanese graphic novel. OK, so there aren't many kanji to keep track of, and there's no translation to accompany the pics for us to compare them with even if there were ... but honestly, are we supposed to be paying attention to the captions anyway?

More Flickr Follies: Censors Keep Chinese Bloggers In Check

Dashiell Bennett — Thu, 12 Jul 2007 12:11:15 EDT

On second thought, maybe all is not so pink and rosy in Flickrland after all. Or at least not in certain countries where the freedom to look at tits on the internet isn't so universal. Friend o' Fleshbot Xeni Jardin has the latest on Hong Kong blogger Oiwan Lam, who is facing the possibility of a $HK 400,000 fine and a year in jail simply for linking to a topless lady (pictured) on the photo sharing site. The big issue—aside from China's dismal human rights policies—is that Flickr's efforts to corral potentially offensive material may have actually made it easier for officials to target and prosecute Lam. Since parent company Yahoo! is already in hot water for helping put a Chinese journalist behind bars, an American company helping another government oppress its people can't be good for business ... or the people, for that matter. Stay tuned to see how this develops, but it looks like censorship and its "unintended consequences" aren't going to stop causing trouble anytime soon.
