I enjoy these shots, don't get me wrong!! But there is also something exciting when you know that someone is willingly sharing their own naked image, for example on photobucket....
Actually you only need to get a model release when you are going to use the photos for advertising, a book, etc.. If you are in a public place anyone can take your picture. And anyone can post it on the internet where it becomes part of the "public domain." You DON'T have a right or expectation of Privacy when you are in public, especially if/when you are walking around or riding a bike Naked. Some people would say it's "rude" to be naked in public.
