Sometimes a simple link isn’t enough. I’ve discovered this blog here on wordpress when I was creating the “an artist unlike any… Sandro”-post.

I simply love his taste in pictures… Thrilling but never ordinary, artistic but saucy enough to keep the juices flowing. If you like the pictures on my blog Dottypinhole is a must visit. http://dottypinhole.wordpress.com

*Sigh* well I will try not to post to much similarities…

When all colours fade…

Three drop-dead gorgeous pictures but they all have a certain warmth to them… Who dares to say that black&white is just plain black and white?



Second hand smoke

Guess they needed the other hand to do something else…

An interesting article states that 35% of gay men love their daily routine of cigarettes.

Although I am a smoker myself I do not like to promote the use of cigarettes in any way. Here in Belgium smoking is no longer allowed in restaurants and likely in the years that are coming it will also be banned from pubs and bars. Which isn’t such a bad thing. Still I do feel that smoking somehow looks great on film and in photography, it lights up the atmosphere (pun intended).

The beauty of body art

A tattoo is a true poetic creation, and is always more than meets the eye.  As a tattoo is grounded on living skin, so its essence emotes a poignancy unique to the mortal human condition.

Ink to paper is thoughtful
Ink to flesh, hard-core.
If Shakespeare were a tattooist
We’d appreciate body art more.

An artist unlike any… Alekandro

Alekandro is a 45 year old photographer from Mexico City. His pictures mostly reflect the delicacy of the male body, without shame or compassion. Straight forward with a gay twist.

Although most of his pictures are in b/w he digitally enhances them by layering certain colourfull parts.

To see more of his work you can visit his deviant-art gallery @ http://alekandro.deviantart.com/ and like most artists donations are more than welcome…
