WARNING: Links in this post followed by NSFW (aka Not Safe For Work) mean that there is nudity awaiting you on the other side of that click.

Occasionally I mention Andrew, my husband, and his photography here.  His camera is an ever-present companion in our daily lives.  Photography is what he does.  It's his work.

I'm unbelievably happy, but not surprised, that he has a photo in a juried exhibition.  The exhibition is called Re:Nude, A Body of Work (NSFW) and it's at Black Box Gallery (NSFW) in Portland Oregon.  There are 20 photos by 20 different artists.  Andrew's is the 3rd photo in the gallery

For those of you who aren't interested in full-frontal nudity but are still curious, here are some family-friendly links:

- Our recent drive to Big Sur.

- His latest series of tarp photos which I'm totally in love with.

- A Chinatown Dragon Dance we stumbled upon by chance (use forward/right arrow to advance).  The firecrackers and the drumming were so loud that I had to stand behind him shielding my head from the noise while reaching up to cover his ears while he took all these photos.  It was all over in a matter of minutes.  I love the swirling colors and bright explosions in this set.

And for those of you that would love some more nudity, check out any of the links listed under the heading model galleries except "Night And The City" where the model remains fully clothed ... but she's beautiful, so take a look anyway why dontcha?
