I great nude photo is really tuff to pull off & when its done well - it will demand attention.  Most great artistic nudes have a lot to do with the lighting, forms & curves.  It is not as easy as it looks. 

just getting naked is not going to command attention!

The more reason why models are just props. We got one right here. Maybe I should do a series where I just gag the models. They don't need to talk.

Wow...where's the line to shoot with you?? It must be somewhere around here in PA, because YOU...damn...you are such a sweet, awesome, classy guy!

Comment if you think the photos represent a certain quality. Don't do it because they are nudes. I should say that nudes or sexy photos get a lot of page views. Some of us signed up for the free nude Photos we get to see that we can excuse them as arts.

Huh?

Only if you believe an interest in nude people is perverted. For most people, it's a biological drive. The perversion part only comes into play based on your own personal set of standards.

I wouldn't call wanting to look at someone naked perverted. But that's just me.

I skip over a lot of nude photos on these ports......
It's only if a shot has a real naughty factor, will it draw me in-
So for me,
the answer would be NO.

I don't kiss ass to anyone. Certainly not to models. Models are nothing more than just props with legs. That's all they are to me. They are just nothing more than a mannequin. If I could find me mannequins to work with, I would have used it instead of models.

You're that guy who insisted on going 60 in the left lane when I wanted to do 80 aren't you? Ouch.

i agree models talk way too much. i talk non stop and i'm a terrible model but at least i don't make a *mumble mumble can't hear because a camera is in front of your mouth noise* all shoot long. Photographers oughta shut up too. In fact we should hold an enforced silence starting with stylists, then photographers and then models. Only let GWC and GWP talk... it'd be like the dead parrot sketch up in here.

Of course nudes get more views and comments.....same reason why the dancers get more tips in a strip club than the cocktail waitresses....we like boobs even more than we like liquor

i'm gonna have to disagree.
i admit the nudes i've had in my portfolio aren't the best of what i have up, and it seems the views and comments are a testament to that. i have taken down all but one, and that one will likely be next when it comes time to put up new pictures. but the one that remains is far from my most viewed or most commented picture.

I took down all nudes except one from my portfolio but when they were up, the views were over 1000 compared to like 500-600 for the non nudes
