Spread Shots?
[Reposted from the Forum]
For the past month or so, I’ve been combing through thousands of pictures as I update the Women of Summer Camp pages. (It’s inspiration for B4, I tell you!)
Anyway, several photographers have the model pose in more risqué positions than what I usually choose. That’s right, spread shots. Most of them aren’t like the cheesy “two-finger spread” shots from Hustler, but they’re still spread shots—although some of them are shots that would make Larry Flynt proud.
Personally, I like pussy as much as the next man (or woman), maybe more. But I pride myself on providing a classy web site. Well, mostly classy. But I digress…
Are spread shots classy? Sexy? Depends? A total turn-off?
Check out some examples and then vote in the poll.
Your opinion counts!

Personally, I prefer not to see the ‘fingers’ shots - I think they always look wrong, unnatural somehow. But depending on the pose, it can be really good. I’d cite the “Dora” shot as an example of this, with the “Ulya” one as a not-so-close second. The other two? No, not for me. I can live with them, but I’d be happier living without them on your site.

Well, the spread shots are more daring than the other images of the women in your stories, but they are not as daring as some of the pictures you post in potd and daily nudes. I like them, they are nice pictures without the empty, glassy eyes found in hard porn. There is no easy line between okay and too much, and the line is never in the exact same place for different people.
I can’t log in to the poll, so please accept my vote here: Use the shots, if necessary in a separate link (like bonus images). They are good pictures, and deserve attention. Keep them as nude as possible, though. We are talking about nudists here, are we not?
Oh, and do tell if you ever come to the cold country of Norway. Our speciality is something called “Karsk”. Ask nicely, and I might tell what it is

I have to add my vote here also. I also hate the glassy-eyed ‘hard’ porn (although I’ve seen ’soft’ that was just as bad). As far as the spread shots, the Dora one isn’t really one to me, personally I think that picture makes her look as if she’s had a ceserian (sp?). The Marketa one just looks uncomfortable as hell.
The Peach picture for some reason makes me think of ‘American Pie’ and Eugene Levy showing his son the porno mag. ‘See that look in her eye, she’s saying, Hey there, big fella!’
None of them are offensive, but most of your nudes are ‘Artsy’, so as long as you keep that standard, I think you should be fine.

PS: Its your site Nick, do what you feel is best.
Too late to vote, but yes, all those shots are beautiful and classy. Dora isn’t even a spread shot.
“Breakdown” is amazingly good.
I’ve viewed my fair share of porn photos/spreads and in all honestly I think when don’t see everything (and when the model doesn’t have 100 mile stare) the overall experience in so much more a little imagination always adds to the eroticism.
I rarely go for the full spread shots, I find little or no allure in them and the more artistic ones tend to have a better composition and respect for the subject after all isn’t it about the women as a whole and not the space between her legs.
I really prefer the “non-spread” shots. I.E., focus on the woman’s beauty, and leave some mystery for us to “hope for”.
I know, it’s too late.
But just to post it out: I think Dora was “acceptable” enough to be classy, while other three were too “hard”.
IMHO.
