The expression on this young man’s face is a big reason I do this blog. About 135 years ago, he agreed to be photographed nude catching and immediately throwing a ball by Edweard Muybridge, and we can still see the sheer enjoyment on his face today. I hope people are still looking at him in another 135 years.
Tumblr's loss is Blogger's gain. Glad to see quality pics over here.
ReplyDeleteI agree!!
DeleteAgree, he is filled with joy and thanks to this film being preserved, he will be joyous far into the future.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you again. I have had tumblr blogs for years and almost all of them have been deleted on the sole fact that I appreaciate vitage man beauty in all it's forms. I guess people of yesterday were naked in the caves and nobody cared for that matter. 'Cause it is natural... And nobody considered it of being not according to guidelines of the community. I guess the community sucks and it's depriving people of expressing themselves.
DeleteJamie, your blogs have not been deleted by tumblr. If you go to your dashboard, you will see that they are still there, but adult posts are visible only to you. Tumblr had made a sneaky move to keep getting visitor hits, and thus ad revenue, off of adult blogs by leaving them up and running with heavily censored content. You should delete your blogs if you don't want these guys making money from them. I will be deleting mine in a few days because some of my followers are just now learning what has happened and I want them to find my new blog here.
DeleteAmazing to think just how long this lovely bloke has been dead. He is now infinite, of course. Kinda like that music NASA sent off into deep space.
