I’m gifting private photo / video / VR shoots at Burning Man again this year! Fashion, art, weird, elaborate, erotic, silly, kinky... whatever your Radical Self-Expression is! Interested? DM me or find me at Camp Just Ahead, 6:00 & E. (These are some of the tame ones, and all gave permission.)

I think the thing I hate the most about modern social networking isn't the censorship. It's the utter sense of invisibility. It's the fact that no matter how hard I try, my posts on *every* platform never gain traction anymore, because I'm not rich, popular, young, pretty, or paying to promote.

Quick Updates: 1. We have 5 confirmed campers, talking to others. Total goal of 8-10. So far so good! 2. We've been selected for placement, address will be revealed next month. 3. Our camp will have satellite Internet! For emergencies and checking in with family, not for socials. #burningman

Pool is looking a little green with all the rain we've had, but I'll have ot back to shoot-worthy clarity soon! In the meantime, here's one from the archives... #underwater

Planning @campjustahead.art for Burning Man this year! I have no burner friends or community, so I "recruit" online. I'm no influencer and 2026 sucks for international travel, so finding compatible campmates is a challenge. If you want to join a simple, fun theme camp, check us out! #burningman

Someone/somebot? reported my Telegram channel for "TOS violations" for posting the same artwork I post here. Despite having a paid account, I appealed it around 3 weeks ago and there hasn't been a reply yet. Needless to say, I've fully lost faith in them and won't be renewing my subscription.

"Wicker Chair", 2010. Shot on a *freezing* NYC rooftop. Model retired.

Fine art photo, high angle looking down at a broken wicker chaise lounge on a wet, shiny rooftop. Moody, cool monotones. A slender model is posing across it, with one foot on the ground, the knee of the closer leg raised so her foot rests on her other knee, and her arms holding her up on the chair's armrest an opposite side. Her body is stretched, face turned up and away from the camera. She has light skin and long dark hair.

Is anyone on the #OpenAI, #Claude, or #Gemini teams active here? While not as popular as X, the people running this platform aren’t Epstein’s buddies, and unlike at X, AT protocol content can inform your future models. Please stop forcing devs to sign into that hellscape just to get your AI tips.

Does posting here regularly really increase engagement? I don't know, I post when I feel like it. Miami Beach, 2010. Model #Kat (retired) #artnude #fineartnude #bnw

I basically stopped making art this year. Too busy at work, too difficult to find local models, too many family obligations and house repairs. 2026 will be different. I'll find some fellow weirdos to return to Burning Man, stop being a social hermit, make some new art, and find my tribe here.

Tonight, The Man burns! I skipped this year, but have many friends there who survived and thrived despite the weather. To bring @campjustahead.art back next year, I’m looking for a core group between Houston and Lake Charles! Interested? DM! #burningman #brc #burningman2026 #burningman2025

I’m visiting family in Knoxville and have some limited time to collab this week, so if you model and are in East Tennessee, lmk if you’d like to shoot! No underwater gear with me, but I can shoot 2D or 3D/VR

My pool is officially ready to shoot in this summer! Just gotta find volunteer models who are free the same days I am (have to work around job, fam, and our airbnb). Here’s a piece from many years ago…

@aaronrayburnphoto.bsky.social posted a lovely piece shot in SF, I recognized the area since I’ve shot there too! Always fun to see different artists’ take on the same location, so this and the next few posts were all made there #artnude #fineart #model #bnw

Sometimes, an #underwater shoot is also over-water! I’m looking forward to making art this summer with more amazing models! Just wish more models had a presence here! It’s a terrible platform for discovery (you’re invisible if not reposted), but great for art sharing vibes.

Seeking #art #model volunteers for #underwater shoots starting in April! No experience needed. I live and shoot in #Beaumont #Texas. Feel free to AMA here or in a DM. Trying to reach a wider audience of local-ish art lovers here, reposts/likes appreciated! #fineartphotography #artnude #bnw

Just in case it wasn't obvious, #IStandWithUkraine. Today's shit-show in the Oval Office was a stain on our national conscience.

Headed into cold weather here in Southeast Texas this weekend. Some people like winter. I do not. Give me more months where I can shoot #underwater. Here’s a #malemodel from a few years ago… Happy 2025! #artnude #fineartphoto

Alas, @moderation.bsky.app is now 20+ days behind on appeals for inappropriate porn labels. It’s low key taking the fun out of posting. But here’s one anyway. Merry Christmas! #fineartphoto #artnude #artmodel #freethefigure #bnw #fineartphotography #nonsexualnudity #tennesseemodel #knoxville

GM! Here’s a figure study with two models, Jax and Cam Damage. I’m available to shoot in evening hours in the Spring, TX area this week. I don’t suppose there are any #artmodel volunteers in that area here on BlueSky yet? #artnude #fineartphoto #houston #texasmodel #springtx

Calico kitten with predominantly black fur is center frame, inside a decorated Christmas tree, reaching her paw out and batting an ornament that looks like an old-school blue Christmas tree light bulb. Various LED colors are visible, as well as a faux popcorn strand and silver ball ornament

#FuckZuck. This photo, posted for a year, has been removed from #Facebook. Swipe to see the photo. So, I removed myself from around 50 groups, and removed Meta’s apps from my phone. More steps to leaving permanently. I’m basically only there now for burner groups. #zucksucks

Mixing it up… I lead a #BurningMan camp and I gift photos to the amazing people I meet. Is @campjustahead.art the first theme camp on BlueSky? Recruiting for 2025 now! This will be mislabeled, but the appeals backlog has improved, now under a week! Go BlueSky mods! #fineartnude #bnw #fineartphoto

Shot in my studio with #TheresaMamchester I’ll be doing work in the same vein but 3D over the next few months, assuming I find a few local models and the timing works out #fineartnude #artnude #nudeart #fineartphoto #bnw #femalemodel

“Fine” = final, i.e., the purpose of the art is just to be itself. Not to serve a function, such as to titillate, provoke, solicit, objectify, politicize, glamorize, arouse, tease, brag, or worship. “Art” = authentic expression of the artist “Nude” = uncovered, authentic expression of the model

Richard Tallent @richardtallent.bsky.social · 29/11/2024

GM! I love #beach shoots. This was from one of my first. About half the #models I work with, like her, are locals ( #Houston, #LakeCharles, #Beaumont) who model for fun/art. All are volunteers #fineartnude #artnude #fineartphoto #nudebeach #bnw #bnwphoto #femalemodel #nude #naturism #freethefigure

This… even if you’re only interested in non-sexual nudity, because the bots are pretty bad right now at telling the difference

I’m in #Knoxville, available to shoot (2D and 3D) this week! This piece is from San Francisco. I mostly shoot black and white, but sometimes color speaks more than Value alone #artnude #fineartphoto #fineartphotography #femalemodel #nudemodel #sanfrancisco #artmodel #naturist #nudeart #nudemodel
