New Site

Hello everyone...

I apologize for the lack of updates for the last week, everything will be back to the usual schedule by this Wednesday. But there is a very good reason that I haven't had time to update: I've been working on a brand new site! I've learned a lot from building and running this blog and I felt that I should put it to good use on a review site. After slaving away deep in HTML and CSS all week I am finally ready to introduce:

This site develops further some of the ideas I first published here, and provides an easy to navigate and carefully constructed guide to the world of positive porn. And three large free galleries for every site listed. Please check it out and let me know what you think (or if something doesn't work) by commenting on this post or emailing me.

Galleries of the Week 1/21

Hi everyone, I'm happy to announce that this site has grown so fast that I am moving it to a bigger and better server. This means over the next few days there may be some downtime, but I'll try to keep the site up and running through the whole transfer.

In the meantime, here are six great new free galleries for this week. They're from IShotMyself, Michelle7Erotica, Michelle7, Met-Art, Galitsin, and I also threw in some behind the scenes shots from Abby Winters. Enjoy...

Furry Girl

FurryGirl.com is nothing like the vast majority of porn sites. Although it would technically be catagorized as 'amateur porn' it bears little resemblance to the other sites in that category. Here's what makes it so special: Furry Girl is not just the name of a website but also the pseudonym of a girl - a person - a human being, with an independent spirit, and a penchant for online nudity. She is a rare individual in the world of online porn, owning, running, and modelling for her personal porn site. Although hers is certainly not the only one-girl-self-made porn site, I have never seen another one of comparable quality.

I have always said that a personal touch is the most important characteristic of successful, tasteful porn, and FurryGirl is about as personal as you can get. Nameless, faceless models, stripped not only of their clothes but of their personalities as well, left with no shred of individuality and even separated from their true appearance by plastic surgery and makeup, are in my opinion, less erotic than my own grandmother. Furry Girl is in every way their opposite. She is natural, individual, honest, and beautiful, and her site is the best I've ever seen in independent porn.

One more great thing about FurryGirl.com is that as a member you can really get to know her, as she is often on the message boards, does cam shows, and frequently updates her journal. Because her site is small, you aren't going to be able to find much free content as for a megasite, and more importantly, if you enjoy her site, she deserves your support. I highly recommend a membership to her site.

Abby Winters: Close-ups

Macro, (close-up), has always been my favorite type of photogaphy, especially when it comes to erotic photography. There is something very addictive about being able to see every hair, pore, birthmark, and freckle on parts of the body you don't often get to see. For this type of photography, I know of no site that offers greater quantity or quality than Abby Winters. For one thing, they use good cameras, and provide the images without shrinking them excessively. Some of their sets are offered in the almost impractically large size of 11 Megapixels. But there is more than just good equipment behind Abby Winter's success in closeup erotic photography; Abby and her cohorts also seem to have a good photographic eye for these type of shots. While they might not be intentionally artistic, some of the photographs do have a beautiful artistic quality to them. So, for your viewing pleasure this week, I have combed through a dozen or so Abby Winters sets selecting the best close up shots, and organized them into three free sample galleries. The first gallery is all close-ups of nipples and breasts, with and without bras, the second gallery includes shots of faces, belly buttons, lips, and asses, and the third, is all pussies. Enjoy!

Hegre-Art

I have to admit that although Hegre-Archives was one of the first erotic photography sites I ever found, and for quite a while was my favorite, it has been a few months since I last visited. I had to write a review of Hegre recently, so I went back and took a good look at it, and I was amazed at how much I had been missing. The site has undergone major revisions recently, including a new name (Hegre-Art), and a shiny new design. My favorite aspect of the site is how personal it is. Petter lets us get to know him as a photographer and as a person as well, through his inclusion of very well written behind the scenes reports. The countless nude photosets of his wife Luba are almost disturbingly intimate. They provide a small window into the personal lives of the photographer and model, in this case also husband and wife, which is very rare in the erotic photography world.

As a photographer, I am consistently impressed with Hegre's skill in the use of color. He knows and takes advantage of the full potential of color photography, by making color itself one of the subjects of his photography. It is obvious that he thinks carefully about color during his shoots, and the results are quite impressive. Larger sites with more photographers, such as Met-Art, can easily beat out Hegre-Art in terms of variety and quantity, but as a personal portfolio of nude photography, Petter Hegre's site is difficult to beat. Here are a few galleries from Hegre-Art for you to enjoy:
