Menorca and colour play

The first two you have seen before in monochrome, but I decided some time ago to play with adding colours using Photoshop and while the tans might be a little overdone, I'm quite pleased with the effect. We could never get a tan like that with our fair skins. 




The next two are of Ian in Menorca, there will be more on later posts

Invitation

Anyone is invited to offer images for posting here, as long as they are naturist and you have the permission of the model. Just put a message in comments and I'll reply.


Maja on the Baltic


A rare clothed one at a car rally in Leicester, lovely legs. I wish she could still wear a micro mini-skirt. If it comes to that I wish we still had a mini-moke.

Rant

I find it amazing that many naturist write on naturist websites, about wanting naturism to be accepted, but few will stand up beyond that anonymity and be counted.

We have the WNBR riders going nude in public to protest about fossil fuels etc, for the most part they are not naturists. No most naturists are tucked up safe from public eyes in their walled in enclosures. They hide like naughty children ... afraid of being caught doing something "mummy" told them was wrong. 

Gays had the courage of their convictions and and held "Nude Pride" rallies, marching through city centres to show they exist. They stood up to be counted, homosexuality was illegal then. It is not illegal now, there are even laws to protect them from discrimination.

WHAT ARE NATURISTS DOING?
They are doing the same as always, hiding!
What harm will it do to you if someone sees your naked body?

My thanks this time to Jude and the two Johns for their contributions.

Hey Jude


Thanks Jude for this shot from Cap d'Agde.
I wish Maja and I would tan like that.



Maja on the shores of the Baltic, this was from the days when we had difficulty getting nudes developed and when we didn't mind talking about nude beaches but were shy about showing the pictures. A while later we saw the light and asked the question "what could someone do to hurt us if they saw us naked?" and of course the answer is nothing. The only thing to fear is fear itself. These days teachers and anyone dealing with children have to be careful, but most of us have nothing to worry about. A friend of ours accidentally saw a picture of Maja naked when we were a lot younger. I had borrowed his scanner and when returning it, it was switched off and unplugged. When he turned it on an image came up on his screen of Maja naked sitting on a bed reading. Apparently all scanners retain the last image scanned, even when switched off, who knew?

The only thing that changed from this was that I was then able to take my nude pictures to his computer to be scanned in, then bring the file back for use on my computer.  Prior to that I had accidentally seen nudes of another friends wife, she asked me to baby sit for an hour and left a box of slides on the table, which I thought was of the new baby. They turned out to be her naked, that changed nothing between us, except that we started comparing photos. Strangely they never became naturists.

if he wasn't held he was a blur of movement.

kaleidoscope


This is one of my favourite pictures of Maja reclining in a Naturist b&b. We have a 60 x 40 cm blow up of this on canvas hanging in our lounge. It has received a lot of compliments from both men and women, naturist and non-naturist.



Camping again on Kens campsite in Snowdonia, unfortunately closed since he retired and sold up to the National Trust


Focus not good on this one comes of using self timer in the days of film.

Walkabout


Maja on the island of Sylt, a naturist setting of long standing






Two more from Chris on walkabout at Weymouth



Despite some promises, we have had very few submissions and none from women, Maja is getting lonely and I'm in danger of running out of photos. couples would be good, but singles are welcome. Also tales of true naturist experiences that you dont mind being published here (you can change the names if you are shy).

Germany and Weymouth



I rather liked the effect of this, I don't play about with pictures much, but everyone needs a break.


Holnis beach, north Germany, worth a visit. North Germany, between Hamburg and Flensburg has a lot to offer. It's not over hot like the Med which means you can be out in the sun longer and of course that often means you can be nude longer. On the odd bad day there is Glucksburg castle only fifteen minutes from Holnis beach.


Thanks to Chris for these pics of his walk near Weymouth, 
there are more which I'll post later

Mixture


Some of the earlier pictures


Holnis beach Northern Germany
Holnis is a private beach and visitors have to pay a small fee to visit. This pays not only for the beach to be kept clean but also for the removal of jellyfish if the should wander ashore.
The money kiosk and the gate are attached to a cafe and it splits the naturists from the textiles, although they come together on the deck of the cafe. Toilets are behind the cafe.

We'd been there a while when we went for coffee and cakes, Maja went to the loo and was surprised by a young boy about 4 or 5 years old looking at her dazed as if he hadn't seen a naturist before and nearly following her into the ladies. She had an even bigger surprise to see when she came out of the toilet to find she was naked facing the road and the public car park, which were only separated from her by a chain link fence.  I don't know what those outside thought but we had a good laugh about it.



Wassersleben unofficial beach
Just below the canoe club, I met one of the committee members (clothed) while I was canoeing and introduced him to Maja who was sunbathing as you can see ... It didn't seem to phase him and he showed us round the boat house.

This place is now not accessible unless you walk in, the track has been closed/
