One in All in

 

Dont forget to include yourself in your photos, because it is the man who usually takes the pictures, most nudes tend to be of women. Of course that is not the only reason men are left out. The main reason is simply that women are more photogenic and before anyone accuses me of being sexist, many women, both Heterosexual and Lesbian, will agree they find the female form more attractive than the male.

Of course, there is nothing to stop you getting a friend to take photos of both of you.

Be careful of your choice of cameraman though, if you are taking more intimate photos he/she might want to join in or later show them around people you would sooner didn't see them.

Cold Weather

Well it might be autumn but it feels cold enough to be winter. Not the weather for outdoor social nudity. But we can still do it indoors and take pictures as well.

And if you are a little shy, then a picture or two where the model is obviously nude but not showing anything. Your workmates can see these and be jealous of your wife, without seeing more than you would like.

 we can probably be more intimate with the camera too.

Age Concerns

 What goes up and never comes down?

Two answers really Tax and Age.

No-one wants to talk about tax, but age we cant ignore.

One day we are young and full of energy.

Then a few grey hairs and a bit of middle age spread.

Then we get old.

But we shouldn't let that get in the way of our Naturism. After all it's not about how you look, it is about enjoying the free air on your uncovered skin and enjoying it with friends and others of a like mind. 

Heat Wave

 You know,  some would think this is ideal weather for naturists. Clear skies and hot sun, but it could be too hot. We have to be careful not to get burnt. And some of us cant stand the temperature to be too high. We prefer moderate heat, where a tan could take weeks to develop and there is little chance of burning.

We can of course stay inside until the cool of the evening and make the most of the indoor heat.

Interesting moment.

 I have this image as the home screen and the lock screen on my mobile phone, which is great. Every time I use the phone I'm reminded of how beautiful Maja was in her younger days.

However it can cause some interesting moments, like when you realise someone is looking over your shoulder or when a friend asks to use your phone.

On Tuesday I had such a moment, I had gone to collect my hearing aids (age gets to all of us). These hearing aids have an app so they can be fine tuned to any situation as you wear them. It's a great idea, but to set them up the lady hearing expert needed to take the phone and start the app. This of course meant she had to see the above picture. 

As you all know, we are not shy about anyone seeing our pictures, in fact we love it. But we dont want to upset anyone and some people easily upset by nudity. 

So before I handed it to her I warned her about the picture, she didn't seem offended at all and even commented how beautiful Maja was. That was a relief, I wonder what she said to her colleagues😀

Getting outdoors and enjoying it.

 With summer having cooled slightly, try some nude outdoor pursuits. They will keep you warm with the aid of a little sun.

Cool Summer

Well it's supposed to be summer time, but round here it's a wee bit cold for summer. Mind you it is July Fortnight, and here in Leicester we used to have factory shutdown for the first two weeks in July every summer and it was always cooler than the rest of the summer. August two weeks were usually best.

Anyway just to remind us that summer is here, below are some beach pics.

Happy Models

When taking Naturist pictures or even just nude pictures, make sure your model is happy. You can see from this picture that Maja is both happy and relaxed. this and the picture below are among my favourite pictures because, not only is she happy and relaxed, but there is and air of innocence about it.

An interesting thought on this blog, in  the past we have heard (often from the gutter press) that girls who pose for this type of picture are not nice girls, they are likely to sleep around etc.  In my experience over the years, I have found that the girls least likely to be naturists or pose for nude pictures are those who are known for sleeping around.

When I was younger I often heard that men who  liked others to see their wives naked or let others see photos of them nude were "mentally unbalanced" and more recently an agony column on the net advised a woman to dump her partner because he expressed a desire for him and his wife to be nude whenever possible and wanted to take pictures of them or get friends to photograph them. They had discussed it and she had asked if he wanted his friends to have sex with her. He was emphatic in saying no, but he would be proud for them to see her naked. The wife was unsure because of what she had always been told as she grew up. The agony advisor didn't believe him. There was no follow up on this but it would have been nice to know how it ended.

The same question comes up from time to time on sites like Qora and the contributors seem split but mostly in favour of doing it and more than a few said they already did it. Some said their wives served beer to them naked when they had friends around to watch sport or films.

Where to be Nude

You may have heard that, in the  UK at least, it is actually legal to be nude in public places and the police have guidelines about not arresting people for simply being nude as long as you are not doing it to cause a public disturbance, you know like deliberately flashing someone or waving about your erection.

The pictures below are taken in non-naturist areas

The two above were taken near the canoe club at Wassersleben, on the North German border, 

While the next one down is on the river soar in Leicestershire

The next was taken on a textile campsite in Snowdonia.

The next two taken near a golf club at Woodhouse Eves in Leicestershire

Social nudity is a wonderful thing and gives you a feeling of freedom. Nude driving can be great, I have driven all over Britain naked. I usually have a road atlas handy in case of a sudden need, cant use a GPS for that.

It's not what you do, it's the way that you do it!

 A good title that, because it explains perfectly the difference between naturism and porn. It also explains the Law of the Land regarding public nudity.

Innocent nudity such as shown here is not illegal, even if some less enlightened police forces, might warn you against it. In the UK you can even go nude about town and it is still legal.

*******

What isn't legal is public sex or using nudity to shock people as in flashers etc.

Thanks Lynn.

Some years ago we were enjoying an evening at Rivendell, A lovely club that is well worth a visit. 

While we were there we tried the facilities, the hot pool was very relaxing.  We were joined by some men from a Southampton naturist club who took places opposite the steps, it never occurred to me why until Maja decided to go for a swim in the cooler swimming pool.

As she climbed out of the hot pool, the three men all leaned in so they could get a better view ... what of

This;

Maja's first time.

I was answering someones question on the Facebook naturist group when I thought this could probably do with repeating for the new viewers of the blog. It also occurred to me that if any of you have stories of their naturist experiences, even if you dont have pictures, please contact me in comments and I will be happy to include them.

My First Time – and Afterwards

by Maja

I felt the fear gripping me, this could not be happening, why had I agreed to come?  I looked across at John, he stood smiling and urging me to do something that I had been told from earliest childhood never to do ….

"Come on," he said and disappeared out of the chalet door.  I felt trapped.  Where could I go?  He had abandoned me in a strange place, and the only way out was through that door, naked in front of everyone …. Suppressing a shudder, I took off my bra and panties and with an immense effort of will followed him out into the sunlight, thinking to myself, "It isn't real, it isn't important, I shall never ever do this again."

John was talking to somebody, seemingly unaware of the fact that he was standing there stark naked – as was his companion, as were the figures seen all around the field.  Fearful but resigned, not daring to look directly at anyone, I went to his side.

An old man, wearing only a tee-shirt, took my hand gently and introduced himself, saying in a fatherly way, "Your first time?" 

He was so old you could not imagine him to be lusting after these female bodies walking about within his reach, a small consolation when my mind was filled with my mother's warnings from my childhood: nice girls don't do things like that; struggling with my own reason saying there is nothing wrong with the human body, it is not shameful, just do it this once and never again; curiosity about what makes otherwise sane people do such things ….

The old man held onto my hand and showed me around the wooded grounds of the club; screened from outside view, they were full of sunshine, green growth everywhere, birds singing, and gradually I came out of my trance and started to look around. 

I felt the warmth of the sun on my skin and felt the light breeze on places that the wind had never before reached.  Slowly I began to gain confidence and feel I might survive this ordeal; nobody need ever know, it was going to be alright after all.

Having nodded and smiled back shyly at distant figures enjoying the various sports facilities of the club, when we returned to the chalet I was faced with other naked people at close quarters, and made a big brave effort to conquer my fears.

I shyly spoke to one or two people, and received an invitation to have a cup of tea with one couple.  So naturists eat and drink like everyone else!  We both accepted the hospitality gratefully, and sat eating the other couple's sandwiches whilst making small talk, relaxing bit by bit.

Later the woman suggested a game of tennis, which I had loved at school, and although I was a bit out of practice I enjoyed running about after the ball, and even caught myself sneaking a glance at her man as he dashed about.

The woman, too, was happy to be looked at, and gradually I became aware that I had just as good a figure as anybody else – in fact, being young and slim (in those days!) I compared quite favourably with the other bodies bared to view, maybe not a Page Three model, but with a little suntanning on my white bits, I would be quite attractive, and it wasn't a beauty contest was it, there were some quite fat people and some middle-aged or elderly ones.

Later we went for a swim in the pool which the club members, as they proudly explained, had built themselves – no chlorine, just soft water, and the smooth velvet feel of the water against my skin was absolute bliss.  It reminded me of swimming alone in the local river as a child, when I slipped my costume off to glide bare-skinned among the water weeds, and of pulling it on again in panic at the sound of voices coming towards me.

As the sun began to go down and the warmth ebbed away from the summer day, we said goodbye to our new friends and made our way home.

  When John asked, "Well, what did you think?", I found myself asking, "Can we go again next Sunday?!"
