Time Out's Naked New Yorkers: This Could Have Been You

This week's issue of urban go-getter guide Time Out New York is the "Horny Issue", and to commemorate the rebirth of spring or whatever they put out an open call for people to pose au naturel in the magazine. Apparently everyone took them on it, so they selected seven hopeful naked superstars-to-be (both guys and gals), let them pick the location and theme for their shoot, and then had wonderboy photographer Ryan Pfluger capture their parts for posterity.

Yes, we know what you're thinking: "Ho-hum, another Fleshbot post featuring some tasteful, tepid European art nude and/or 'glamour' photographer. What happened to all that freaky Japanese stuff you used to talk about?" (Do we know you like a book or what?) Well before you get all antsy and click over to the next post, take some time to browse through photographer Nicola Serra's small but choice portfolio of erotic delights. Unlike some erotic photographers who are all boobs all the time, Serra seems to have a particular penchant for taking pictures of beautiful buttocks as well, and his portraits are suffused with a delicious erotic tension whether his models are wearing silly animal masks or bound with duct tape. Even his blog of recent work scrolls vertically horizontally instead of up and down like every other photography blog we've seen. See? We told you he was different!

FiLH modestly describes itself as "a place with a lot of photos"; lucky for us (and you!), some of those photos happen to feature some hot naked chicks. And not just any old naked chicks, either: click through the "De Sexe" section and you'll find naked chicks wrapped in chains, tied up in ropes, making out with other naked chicks, and sticking dildos in their various naked chick parts. Granted, the photos are all very arty (read: always black and white and frequently blurry), but if you're into that sort of thing you won't be disappointed. And besides, arty naked chicks are better than no naked chicks at all, right?

Another week, another community photography site that allows models and photographers to share and display their work. With its focus on all things goth and fetishy, Dirty Angels might not be everyone's cup of tea, but it should automatically gain some new fans for openly advertising its nudie pix ... and for not making us log in to see the good stuff. Finally, a site that understands that pictures of hot, naked and latex-clad models yearn to be free and not pent up behind some filter or greyed out and screened away from the public! (But seriously, people, enough with the "angels" stuff already. Can't our skin site titles start getting a little more creative too?)

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.)

We love nothing more (well, almost nothing) than randomly stumbling across a photo gallery filled with busty Eurobabes lounging around in various revealing poses. ... and we like it even better when that leads us to a photographer's site that is bustling with more artistic nudes and even more sexy naked chicks. There's nothing complicated or overly fancy about Elena Vasilieva's erotic photos, but some days you don't need a lot of flash. Just plenty of flashing.

Wweeggee's Feet And Hands And Butts (Oh, My!)

Fine art and editorial portrait photographer Frank Petronio does many things very well, including take some of the most tender, intimate, playful, and sexy shots of amateur and professional models we've seen in a while. But it seems this whole "blogging" thing gives him problems sometimes: "(O)ne of things I try to avoid doing is the repetitive self-referential, internally-focused posts that give blogging a bad name. They're boring — I mean who really cares about some random photographer's personal life?" Well, Frank, as we've said before there's nothing like some artfully placed T&A to make even the most banal of details go down more smoothly. But since you bought it up ... how did all those people wind up half naked on the bed anyway, and were you among them? Maybe your personal life isn't as boring as you think it is!
