It may be the first day of fall, but summer isn’t quite gone yet. The farmers markets are still offering plenty of summer produce for a few more weeks. So shuck the corn, savor the season, and enjoy the warm weather while it lasts! #naturism #naturist #nudist #nudism

We received two wonderful donations this week. A rare Jock Sturges photography book documenting Fanny's years at Montalivet, difficult to find and valued at $2,000. The other is a German volume featuring photographs of 1920s FKK exercise culture. Which one would you be tempted to browse first?

Over 60 years ago, Eden magazine asked : "Nudist Photography: Obscene, Erotic, Pornographic?" Decades later, the debate hasn't gone away, but the choices are very incomplete. Here's the challenge: if we were putting that cover together today, what words would you use?
