The Photo Focus Photography Blog takes a look and examines how many of us actually are wasting time with our photography, and how we can cut things down to where we are having more photos that are "keepers"
A collection of inspirational and special selected photos during the last weeks. Being an artist is more then just making artwork, it is about appreciating other peoples wonderful visions. Show them some love
There seems to be an ongoing drama war on dA...over nude photography. Some Deviants seem to think that there is little or no difference between artistic nudes and pornography. I can assure you that there is a monumental difference. The montage of works below should make clear the difference between artistic nudes and everything else.
Artistic nudes are about the study and appreciation of the human body. This means that there is much more to the art than just the physical. Like any other art form, artistic nudes express a wide variety of human emotions, struggles, and experiences in a full variety of human shapes, colors, genders, and personalities. In other words, artistic nudes are not created to promote the society's ideal of beauty.
Some of the following 300+ pieces are understated, others are provoking. It is my hope that in this article you will find art that will illuminate new thoughts and emotions.
Please respect the art and the artist.
We will begin with male nudes, because they are underrepresented on dA and the art world in general.
Male in Black & White
Female in Nature
Male in Color
Female in Conceptual
Female & Male in Traditional
Female in Pose & Emotive Portraiture
Thank you for looking! Please this article and take the time to visit & the pieces that catch your eye.

If there hadn't been women we'd still be squatting in a cave eating raw meat, because we made civilization in order to impress our girlfriends. ~Orson Welles~
At least someone has the resolve to show this kind of collection... Of course, what's in it is pure art. It 's just beautiful... Not that I could do even a infinitesimal part of their artistic work or that I have any other experience of photo than being a impressed watcher, but I really think some of these (and "some" makes quite a lot) should just be exposed, there a public that's just waiting for them!
Becoming a better artist means knowing how to challenge yourself, and maintaining a positive attitude even when nothing seems to be working out the way you want it to.
This article explores how to push yourself to do things you never thought you could do.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community.
