Great shot…what! no change for a sugar hit and your wearing thongs…ouch lol!
Fabulous light and pose;)
Paul Louis Vil...
Great use of available light! I sometimes find that whilst using a male model sometimes the “manliness” is lost in translation… this does not apply with any of your work at all. The masculine form and attitude is well preserved and whilst the style is so classy and artistic, there’s also enough testosterone captured that one just wants to sit in front of the telly and watch a game of footy with you! :D

Wow love this Paul. Some great art coming out of the US. Looks like you are enjoying it. I got back yesterday after 35 hrs travelling from the Rockies
Jessica Tremp
love the thongs and mood in this…

Love the pose, the thongs and the mood…..it rocks!!

Love the Huck Finn look …...........especially at the laundromat…....(although Huck didn’t exactly look like that from the waist up)
Excellent use of available lighting…....excellent image!

very compelling, the colors and light are so in total harmony and bring out deep expression. Very well executed!

it’s like you’re standing in front of that soda machine NOT really trying to figure out what button to push, rather your mind is somewhere else entirely. love the natural light and the way it plays in shadows against the wall and the ceiling. Very masculine…but its the pensive mood in your stance and your profile that makes this one flat-out sexy.

Oh, I haven’t visited for so long… and oh, how I love Dr pepper and men in flip flops!
AmyRalston

Irene Burdell

Love your tonal work and composition – your use of light here is fabulous!
Your styling is very, very sexy :)

Love the use of the negative space, for me it gives the image perfect balance.
Anne McGinn
Great image… looks you’re about to drop off them knickers and throw ‘em into the wash :))
Very contemplative and I agree, you are NOT thinking about soft drinks…..

Sugar pie, honey…...

There is a story here and everything about this image makes me curious to know about that story. where was he? where is he going? what could he be thinking? does he want something to drink or is he just looking for a place to lean for a moment -figure some things out. LOVE the negative space, stance & clothes. Fantastic, memorable image Paul, and you are looking quite fine as well…
Mel Brackstone
This image is just so overwhelmingly masculine it hurts!! What a pose, what fabulous light, what a location! The ubiquitious ice machine and drink machine combo never looked so good. I’ll join you and PLV watching the game :)

Oh yum! I mean double yum!

I love this. I love how the image is split in two with one side of the image all dark. And I second Paul LV’s excellent analysis of the presentation of the masculine in your images…
Wonderful stuff, yet again. Hope the road trip is going well.

Stunning! I will never look at Dr. Pepper the same!

This so makes me think you have a moment of “freedom” – from everything! The low-slung, rolled-up jeans, the thongs although there’s tension in your toes, the open, falling-off shirt also rolled-up, your casual, waiting expression and pose – you look as if you’re staring off into space seeing nothing. What are you thinking, what are planning, where’s you head at? The light is almost “enclosed” in the space between you and the machine. Then there are two small points which break up the total blackness of the left side – the reflection(?) near the top of the machine, and the small patch of light under the front corner of it. Altogether, a clasic study of vulnerability and seductiveness – it almost makes me want to “soothe your brow”.

Love the split in this image, the dark and light side, awesome comp, treatment and light. Looks like you are getting a lot of inspiration on the road :-))
BAD-HARVEST

Dr Pepper, What’s the worst that could happen !
You could fall asleep waiting for that damn machine to cough up the soda
meanwhile back in the room Maris is watching 57 channels and there’s nothing on
is that an Ice Box there, maybe you could just use that instead coz you aren’t gonna bet your soda or your $00:02 change
don’t think you’ll be staying at Bates Motel again in a hurry, might as well go and have a shower
Love ‘N’ Laughter Kriss
DarkHotel2 replied
thanks Kriss, actually Maris walked past he lobby as tripod and self timer were being activated, all she did was smile and laugh as she usually does at all my images.. love and laughter back at ya!

Brilliant shot, the light is wonderful and the pose is so perfect, watch out for the diabetes boogie man hidden in the machine, he caught me! ;P
