It works pretty well and I know that you as well as others have flickr accounts, could be a useful tool if you would rather not take the time to upload individual photos. Also, I'm just adding a photo to thread, I know it's a repost but I couldn't post something without leaving a photo.

Thanks, Slickone - thats cool. I desperately need to back up all my Flickr pics because I crop them using Flickr's utility but don't save each new version to my hard drive. This looks like I could easily duplicate my whole photostream without having to download over a thousand pics individually, as well as do lots of other stuff.

Also, that pic is new to me....

I also need to back up because of the Flickr police. Yesterday, I got a Flickr mail from a guy who belongs to the Florida Youth Naturist group whos pics Flanker7 uploaded to this thread earlier. He is actually in some of those pics. And a while back I uploaded one to my Flickr photostream, which is technically a no-no although a lot of people upload web pics. Anyway, he stopped by and saw himself in that pic, then called me on uploading a web pic. You never saw a pic disappear from Flickr so fast in your life! Yeah, you do not mess with the Flickr police...

There is actually another, more common Russian term (натуризма) which i have always took to mean "Naturism". "nudism" or "naturism" -maybe just like us, they have two closely related terms..

thanks,

I just set up Cyrillic characters on my keyboard and started searching, so forgive me if my utter ignorance is too much on display: натуризма does get lots of results (3250 in Google Images), but натуризм (no final а) gets more (8830). Also, I'm using a phonetic transliterator, rather than the true Russian keyboard: might that explain my inability to get the character that looks like capital I and O joined, as it were, at the hip? I think that's the one for the "U" sound pronounced "yew" as opposed to "oo" e.g. how some say Tyewsday rather than Toosday, and since it seems a crucial letter in the Russian for "nude," not having it has slowed me down big time. Anyway, these are from searching on иван купала (Ivan Kupala); the latter are from a Russian women's cycling club where at least one rode naked in Ekaterinburg, I think for the solstice...

I don't know, Crispus, so you can't copy and paste existing Russian words already in webpages? What happens when you copy and paste this: ню ?

That other word having two endings probably is giving you "naturist" and "Naturism".

From, where else - Russia....I love how they can just take any little weed patch or scrubby hillside and turn it into a naked picnic....

I think the fin on the far right dates this one about 1960.....

EDIT: found this using the Russian word "нудизъм" which I don't actually know what it means, but it brings up a lot of naked pics. I may post more words here soon, so stay tuned....

I believe this picture was taken in the 1960s by Dianne Arbus.

In the past i used to give talks on Diane Arbus and I think this image was just called 'The Nudists'. She spent some time living with nudists to experience the environment.
Some of you may remember Nicole Kidman playing the part of Arbus in the film 'Fur'.
Her suicide was indeed a loss to the world of photography.

Apology this is the last but though some readers may be interested.

I was rummaging thru some old files and came across these pics which ought to appeal to any Bare to Breakers fans.
Its a old NIP thing, but I don't know where - possibly netherlands.

This is referred to as "streaking the streak" !! and when they are cheering the runners on and giving them high fives - that reminds me of my BtoB pics from 2009 when I had two babes doing the same thing..
