I mentioned that I received a request for several poses. I had the opportunity to take them today. I hope you like them.
I also took a number of other pics inspired by the request and will post them over the next few days.
I love this picture. I want to try it myself.
Perhaps this is a day to stay inside and read a good book.
Today I received a PM from a lovely lady here, requesting certain poses. This is not one of them, but I shall do them soon. I just wanted to take the opportunity to say that I encourage such requests. It is helpful to know what the ladies like.
I know only too well what poses I think my body looks good in, and rely too heavily on them.
(I haven't published a Vargas yet, although I'm sure I will.)
That's very lovely, JRP, beautifully composed and lit. I really like how the book is sharp, angular, precise, and your body is more softly depicted, curved lines, natural undulations, the chest hair inviting fingers to entwine in it, the book hiding other treasures. I can imagine sliding up behind you to look over your shoulder at what you're reading, stretching my hand down, distracting us both...
I know what you mean about relying on poses one knows. I'm sure I do that too. Threads like your LWoA and Vargas have been very good for making us consider other poses we might not have had the confidence to try
Anyway, I digress. I wanted to suggest you do an odalisque, if you haven't already.
I like that suggestion. Are you volunteering? I promise I would be gentle . . . unless you asked for it rough.
Some additional shots from the same session:
This first one I didn't like much, to be honest, but I am posting it for the smirk
This next one is a bit of an illusion. My left arm looks huge, almost cartoonishly so. It is a combination of the chair back pressing against the bottom of the arm and flattening it out and perspective due to camera placement. As a guy who works out and aspires to big, muscular arms, I couldn't resist posting it, but still felt guilty enough about the false impression that I felt compelled to explain.

You look great!
Perspectives due to camera angles are lies someone has brainwashed you into believing.
So there's really a race of tiny people that fly in those little airplanes I see in the sky? Perhaps this is a day to stay inside and read a good book.

This last suggestion puzzled me. I concluded there must be another definition of odalisque that I was unaware of. I googled it and only got what I expected, "a female slave." Hmm, that would be quite a stretch for me.
Then it hit me, the problem was with my definition of the word "do."
You are suggesting I acquire my own concubine and "do" her?
I watched a film a couple of weeks ago called 'Dangerous Beauty' about a concubine in Venice. Rather sexy.
I like your use of light on this one... particularly on your left inner thigh
Thank you.Ah. Maybe I'm using the wrong term. I thought 'odalisque' in art terms was a reclining figure, usually on a chaise longue or similar, stretched out. Having Googled a little, I think it's because there was an 'original work' depicting a female slave and it had that title (Ingres? Tali probably knows), and the pose then became known by that name.
It's a good pose for men and women, I think, because you can hide or show exactly as much as you feel like by the placing of your arms and hands.
So, yeah, that one. Do that one.
P.S. Concubine, though. *shivers* I think I might have a little fantasy of being a concubine. And I think you might be feeding it, there, JRP...
Yes Ingres did some well known examples. I had you ladies do one in the LWoA thread.
Read your first post and then skipped to last page and saw the progress pictures
Great transformation ..you could see in your OP you had the bedrock physique and a little bit of a cut would make that musculature pop
I think you have achieved your looking sexy goal
Mmmm ..yep
Thank you Bellinda. Where have you been? I missed you.
Perhaps this is a day to stay inside and read a good book.
be still, my heart.
One of your sexiest pics, ever, JR, in my opion But, i'm partial to a man who reads, and has nice biceps)

These are all AMAZING, JR!!! Some make me want to crawl onto your lap. Other's make me feel like I'm standing in front of you trying to look demure. Others make me think you are at an outdoor BBQ or concert and I am making futile efforts not to gawk at you.
Thanks you for taking and posting!!!!
Love all the new ones with you sitting wearing the jeans JR! Thank you to who ever requested those!!
And you of course!
Looking great! Love seeing one in color and one in b&w
I've been here too little over the last few weeks. Lurking, mostly...reading other people's thoughts and such.
Judging by your new pics..i have lots to catch up!!!
damn....look at those biceps. Wow...looking great, JR!
(The total sexiness of your latest collection of pics has rendered my vocabulary quite...inept at expressing the raw, male sensuality of the photos.)
Thank you.
