OMG! OK, Ken has just become one of my favorite models of yours! Where or when can I see more of him??? I don't know how I missed this for so long, but I'm glad I found it now. Have you taken any of him doing martial arts?

Once again, your work is awesome. I am always in awe of how you use light and shadow to show off your models to full effect. Bravo!

as promised... you'll be getting a lot of replies tonight as you took the time to send me comments... (sorry)

I so wish I could get Ken in the studio again.  and I do nothing but his martial arts moves... sadly, he is from another country and in his country he could get imprisoned for doing nude photos.... so I feel fortunate to have these... even thought they were taken a long time ago (prior to 2005).

I know very little about the martial arts but he explained that it was part of his warm-up/focusing routine. So you pretty much nailed it on the head with your comment! (grin)

Well I did some martial arts before, so I guess I knew a litte^^
Does he do karate? Just seems to me like that, maybe Tai-Chi in the picture

I really like this photo, love the lighting and the pose. You do good work! If I may say that while your work is great in every photo I have seen. The homosexual ones are disappointing. I understand that there are lots of gays that love them and I don't say that to take anything away from your talent and fantaskic work. I am disappointed personally because I don't agree with the whole gay agenda, lifestyle, etc... I think it cheapens the image of the male not only in body, but in strength, and from an artistic point of view. Now, that is my personal opinion and I only wanted to express it. I would like to see more of presenting of the male figure as a man, not as a sexual or sensual object. You have lots of those types of photo's and they are excellent! The other to me is glorified porn. I hope I have not offended you or any of your viewers that is not my intention.

Joseph, you have not offended in any way. I appreciate your honest feedback and respect the opinions of others. Thank you for taking the time to view and comment on my images. Hope I didn't offend you too greatly.

You didn't offend me at all. It takes a lot more than some great photos of subject matters that I don't agree with to offend me. I hoped to just voice my opinion and my view of the subject matter. As I search out the subject matter of the exposure of the human body both male and famale as an artist I am finding that the human body is somtimes portrade as only in a "pornographic" light and is called art. I am not implying that you do this at all, but many others are and have. I am seeing more of this type of exposure both homosexually and heterosexually. The human body and the countless poses and expressions are mind boggling to say the least. Being an adult of 50 years old, and a "new" artist I am more disapointed and let down by the sexaulity that seems to be the most sought after poses and use of the human form. Everyone, young and old, will know about the sexual part of the human experience and they can have access to porn if that is their desire. Your work is better than most people I have ever seen as far as capturing the human form in fantastic lighting and poses. I am truly deeply impressed with your work. If I were to encourage you in any way on becoming better, that would be to explore the human expressions and beauty that have not been shown before. The sexual side of the human form has been over done and then repeated a hundred times, including gay and straight sexuallity. There are high class porn sights than any one can go to if they want to see that kind of stuff. I am not saying you should show the gentila of the body at all. Your photo of that guy asleep in the bed was top of the line in my book. It was artistic and sensual at the same time but not porn.

Anyway thanks for listening to me. I love your work, and I say that very sincerely!

Joe

i know some gays and some of them are so normal, nobody who doesn't know them, would say they are gay.
do you mean the extreme? many gays don't feel comfortable with that too. there are so many differents.
which points of the lifestyle do you mean?

and what about lesbians? does it cheapen womens bodys or soul? i speak about lipsticklesbians, not the ones which hate men.

I am sorry, I have thought about my response to your questions. I would rather not get into the issue any more than expressing the opinion I did about the homosexuals photos. I have no need to express or discuss the issues and matter any more. Each of us has an opinion and I am more than willing to listen to yours, and even would be grateful for you to share it with me. This is a subject matter that if two people don't agree on can become quite ugly. I would like to leave my opinion where it is at, I hope you don't mind. Thanks - Joe

Taste really has nothing to do with it, it is the poitical issues and moral issues that cause the problems.

English ain't my native language, so I don't even try it, to express me.
As you said right, just leave it.
