Nue York: Self Portraits of a Bare Urban Citizen by Erica Simone
 

This idea isn't entirely new (as Spencer Tunick fans can well attest), but I hope we can agree that her execution if flawless. She's a young, talented, twentysomething photographer who happens to be drop-dead gorgeous. She also apparently enjoys taking self-portraits, and being naked in public in those self-portraits. Voila.

Seriously, her twist is somewhat unique, and I think extremely sexy. According to her statement on the web site, even though she's the model, she actually shoots all the photos herself, with the help of a shutter release. So here we have a girl taking pictures of herself nude in public. It's art, it's sexy, it's sexy art. What's not to love?

Oh, and she's also a pretty good photographer. These are some pretty cool shots, and not just because she's naked in them. And her other stuff is good as well. Just google her name and you can see her other (less naked) work.

I was going to put this in the Free Sites section, but to avoid the "can anybody save these?" comments, I just did the heavy lifting for you guys and posted them below. The photos on her site are fairly small, but whenever possible I substituted larger images found on other sites. As far as I can tell, these are all the photos of the series that are currently available, but I would love to be proved wrong.

The rest of the series, from various sources. The last pic is just a self-portrait I found on her flickr. Pretty girl.

This is, in a word, fantastic.

Thanks

This photo features actors Dean Winters and Lee Tergesen, most famous for their work on HBO's "Oz".

Here's a ZIP of the pics as available on Erica's website. All of these pics are either larger, or smaller but brighter/more vivid, than the ones that flanker posted. There's also one more that flanker didn't post, which I've posted seperately.

Enjoy and Thanks again to flanker.

Nice find, thanks for sharing.

Thanks Flanker7, what a wonderful find.
Not only are the photos sexy, they deserve frames and a place on the wall.

Thanks Fango for the zip.

Fango:

Thanks for the assist. I did have that missing photo, and thought I posted it. I'm glad you caught it as it's one of my faves. As far as size vs color vividness, I had the same concern and tried to post the "best" version of each photo, but I think it's a good thing to give everyone as many versions as possible and let people decide which ones they like best. (Edit, after seeing them, I realize in a few cases they're both bigger and better quality, which is all too the good, thanks again).

As others have noted, they're great pics as well as sexy ones so they deserve to be seen in the best quality available.

I would encourage anyone who liked the pics I posted above to download Fango's zip.

Cheers,
Flanker7
