It is interesting to see how people associate humor and serious world issues or possibly just hide behind humor when faced with issues they cannot fully comprehend… And sadly I did have to sort of laugh just a tiny bit inside… This post has been reshared 4 times on Google+ View this post on Google+

Call to all that follow or see the post – take a second to read and give your point of view Well here is another not safe for G+ image that was taken some time ago.. I would love to hear some feedback for what works and what does not if anything either way… Read the rest of the post and add your opinions to the items below also – I would like to hear from a diverse group of lovers and haters of images that contain nudity I am looking for way to change both my photo style, and photo editing to make the stuff I shoot more enjoyable to a much larger audience, that said moving more toward sexy and less nude might be one of those directions as unfun as that might sound. We all have to make our sacrifices…. http://500px.com/photo/6719302 If Nudity offends, then wait for another post….. if you like what you see and frequent 500px, drop a like or vote….. but I am more interested in first impressions and real critiques f what you like and why…. I am even more interested in how, where and why you might or might not like images […]

I have been using Gmail for a long long time and have never seen this error before – that cannot be good.. I hope it is only me…. This post has been reshared 1 times on Google+ View this post on Google+

In album The Genuine PT Boat Description: This is PT-728, a 66 1/2 year-old restored Patrol Torpedo Boat from World War II. With a keel laid on August 10, 1945, she is one of 12 remaining PT boats in the world. She is "armed" (all weapons are deactivated) with a single .50- and two twin .50-caliber Browning machine gun stations, an aft 20mm Oerlikon cannon, four tubes that each housed a Mark VIII torpedo, and two depth charge launchers. Built in the Annapolis Yacht Yard using a 72' British Vosper design, her hard-chined, triple-ply mahogany hull is nearly flat at the stern, allowing her to "plane" on top of the water at speeds up to 42 knots, a necessity for quick getaways after a torpedo run. So compelling was a PT boat's performance that Nelson Rockefeller converted one into a high-speed yacht for commutes between Albany and New York City. Updated with modern electronics, radar, and two turbo-charged diesel engines providing 1,100 total horsepower, she is the only PT boat in existence licensed by the U.S. Coast Guard for carrying passengers. Special conditions and guarantee limitations apply. Please call 1-800-227-3528 for details. 72' L x 18' W x 7' 4" […]

I am not a whitespacehater – I am a whitespacewonderer thou… I know Google has a plan.. I wish part of that plan is going to be flexibility of the space and the interface. I would love to see G+ become where I can make some of the layout choices to make it more mine for how I want to consume some of the content. Options, flexibility, thou painful can make the overall experience more usable. I like to use my limited time I have for social more wisely…and since everyone is so different in what they want to consume some flexibility would be a nice way to make many (ok at least me) more happy… And if people are wondering why I picked some half naked photo – its because thats what I do with my photography skills… Many that follow me might not even know that ….. now you do.. if you hate it look at my cool photos of planes… if you like it let me know and I will post others… And if your +Vic Gundotra or +Brian Rose or any of the 100's or thousands that work on G+ – Keep up the great work, […]

Well I have not posted anything too sexy here in some time.. and I see stuff much worse than this post popping up here almost everyday so we will see what the response might be…. If you want to be in a special circle where I share out more erotic images that might not be as suitable for public but still fall under the TOS here – please let me know… That said… if the blowback continues, I rather stick to sharing an offsite link that protects more sensitive eyes… I have determined that unless you are +Jessi June posting hot images in many ways seems to kill follower growth when friends I know posts photos of landscapes and other non sensual content and their followers grow astronomically.. thus it might be time to look at the overall business plan…. Hmm – maybe sex does not sell…….or does it? What is your opinion… This post has been reshared 3 times on Google+ View this post on Google+

time to rebuild it slowly over the next couple months. Trying to follow several thousand people was impossible to say the least….that was the fallout from being an early adopter…. So what do you do that makes someone want to follow you…? View this post on Google+

Seems dissapointing to me that +500px decided to remove G+ from the links to promo images on/from their site.. Unless I am totally missing something, that functionality seems to be gone.. FYI – this image has nudity – so for those that hate that… do not click.. and for those that do not – please click and let me know your point of view… actually for those that hate it – go take a look – we will not tell anyone…. http://500px.com/photo/6065875 Lux by Brent Burzycki Photo portfolio of Brent Burzycki on 500px.
