Rough Times at the Glory Hole: Shooting a Kink Men Bound in Public Shoot

Posted on April 6, 2011 by | 3 comments

Kink Men Video produces a series called Bound in Public. One bottom bound, tormented and put to sexual use by a large group of men. The bottom and several of the Tops are paid performers. They rest of the group are a vetted gang of guys who are encouraged to roughly penetrate the bottom’s holes, verbally humiliate him and of course, take photographs. Check out the video series and look out for more shots of these shoots here.

Sexy New Camera

Posted on March 31, 2011 by | 3 comments

Hail small biz! Scott at Woodland Hills Camera in the California Southland put together a sweet kit out of stock on hand. The big chains couldn’t do it or suggested a waiting list. He put the very versatile 18-135mm lens onto the standard Canon EOS T3i Rebel DSLR body, losing the shorter range 18-56mm lens it usually comes with. They kept the whole thing a price that could not be beaten anywhere on the Internet.

Bywater Bone Boys!

Posted on March 8, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Mardi Gras Skeletons dress in deaths head arrays and traditionally are intended to remind us of our own finite lives. New Orleans memento mori -reminders of death. And scare small children of course. The Bywater Bone Boys were up early and we got a coveted hand made throw! More on Skeleton Krewes in general and the Bywater Bone Boys specifically  here.

Parties, protesters and counter- protesters. God is Unfair? No shit, Sherlock. He’s the Top, and it’s a life-long scene that ends in a snuff. Enough? There is always more where that came from. That’s the way it works, you see. More to come…

Flogging the Peg Boy! Sexy Sailors from London’s Studio Royale.

Posted on February 22, 2011 by | 2 comments

Another interesting vintage photograph. From Studio Royale of London.* It’s got that mid-century film still thing going on and a nice reference to the old law of the sea. Whether in the legitimate Navies or their pirate shadows authority condensed into the will of a single man, the Captain, and was enforced by, among other things…the sting of the lash.

For another mid-century photo, this one of mysterious provenance, click here. For more on homoeroticism on the high seas, check out Hans Turley’s Rum, Sodomy and the Lash: Piracy, Sexuality and Masculine Identity. NYU Press, 1999.
