Black & Whites

Let's see some of your favorite B&W images..

[Dirtzinert]

Very good...

I like this one, and I don't feel they have to always be completely undressed to be sexy.

[Khaizerex]

Both are very good.

[Goddess]

All excellent pics...I think b&w pics are by far sexier.

Black and white pics looks a lot more natural and pure. Those are some lovely pics. I do agree that you don't have to be totally undressed to be sexy. See through is a good way of being sexy. I like that pic with the girl in the shirt, it's nice.

[Dirtzinert]

Even though I'm a "breast man"...I find this one fascinating.

[Michelicious]

Must be the Brazilian trim...er...I mean...tank!

I totally agree...

If I do not understand the difference between: porn- & -not porn, please reprimand me?  (Seriously)



(Is porn the crap that truly turns you on... or what??)

<-- feels stupid...  


ps: I screwed-up... sorry!  

[Michelicious]

Yes dear, your photo is pornography., not to mention that it is not in the B$W thread.  But that's okay.  
Artistic nudes are what you see above, and such.  A woman's labia wide open with breasts perked up that look like they are about to explode constitute porn.  Yes, this is the 'crap that truly turns you on'.  One is artistic, one is vulgar.
Hope that helps.  Here are a few more...

Michelicious is correct. "Artistic" nudity usually never shows the main "bits" up close and in your face, but leaves something to the imagination. It also uses light, angle and such to make the photo more art than just a picture of a woman's parts. Here is one of my own personal favorite black and white nude photos.

[JuJuBe]

None of these pics even REMOTELY turn me on, nor seem- at all- 'artistic' to me...


(Sorry... I'm a pornoholic- for reals.  I honestly don't mean to offend anyone... just being truthful.)


Maybe it's just that I am not very refined in my artistic likings? I wish that I knew why: big boobs, gorgeous faces, & buxom figures, (non-surgical... that is)- hold my fascination.. (?)

... but maybe this is better question, being posed to an entirely different topic.  (For now- please excuse my blunders!)

First off you're excused!  Secondly, don't worry, artistic nudity is not really intended to turn anyone on, it's more about the beauty of the human form, rather than the eroticism of the human form. For some people, porn has it's place, if that's the way they choose to get turned on visually. Artistic nudity really isn't about porn at all, or even getting turned on, so your tastes in what you look at are based on what turns you on, rather than what looks artistic. Nothing wrong with that, you're just into porn and not art.

I hope that explains the difference a bit better, and I don't think you've offended anyone, you are being honest in your observations and had very valid questions.

[Dirtzinert]

Very good points.  Nobody likes a certian amount of porn better than me, but artistic will always win the grand prize.  I compare the two as porn = A messy hotdog, and a beer at a ball game.  Artistic nudity = A medium rare Fillet, and a good bottle of wine.  Both have their place (at least to me).

[Michelicious]

...very eloquently put.

[Dirtzinert]

Interesting approach...  Not quite B & W, but close enough for me...

[lilacdawn]

all very nice....................but no men  

[Dirtzinert]

You're welcome...I assume you have some idea of how hard it is to find tasteful B & W photos of men?  

[lilacdawn]

awwwwwwww thanks dirtz.

it is very hard to find nice pics of men.   women..........anywhere u want and they are there !!!!
its just not fair !!

[Dirtzinert]

Thats what I mean...I absolutely couldn't find one so had to send one out of my own portfolio...course it's a couple of years old.

[lilacdawn]

hmmmmmmm.   well u will have to post a recent one then

[Michelicious]

I found some to satisfy us females...
There are quite a few lovely artistic nude male photographs out there, but you have to wean/ween/weenie/weanie... oh bother... ramble through a lot of pornographic sites in order to find them.  Anyhow, here goes...

[cerina]

I put in 'artistic male nudes' and got loads of sites, most fairly non-porny, but nearly all of them for gay men.
