Here's the delightfully disturbing work of Robert Gregory Griffeth. Happy Halloween!

A small gallery of diverse work by American fashion photographer, Clayton James Cubitt AKA Siege.

**Update**

I neglected to mention the very important fact that this gallery is part of a fundraising effort by the photographer to aid his family who were left homeless as a result of hurricane Katrina. Therefore I've removed the direct link to the nudes.
Please go to the front page of his fundraising site to learn how to purchase a print.

Australian photographer and long time friend of this blog, Lawrence Winder wrote to tell me that he's updated his site with some work that goes outside his previous work by including some male nudes and some political commentary.

Check it out here or go in through the front door and explore his whole site.

Some wonderfully unsettling work by American Bobby Neel Adams. My two favourite galleries are Couples & Age Maps.

Here's the website of extremely talented American photographer and Art Nudes reader John Casacarano. Beautiful work!

Here's another old favourite. Everytime I do a shoot, I try for at least a few back shots, but as far as I'm concerned, no one does them as well as Russian photographer Vladimir Clavijo-Telepnev. (See the Sensuality gallery.)

Thanks to the hardest working blogger I know, Mariana, for this link.

There's lots of new work on Nicole Tran Ba Vang's site since I last visited. If you haven't seen this artist before, or haven't checked her out for a while, don't miss this.

While self-portrait nudes are fairly common for female photographers, not many men normally engage in this. Simon Pais is the exception.

Since both his bio and intro sections are still under development, I can't tell you much about David Gleason besides that he does both black & white and colour nudes. While he does some interesting stuff with dayglo paint in the colour section, I prefer the black and whites.

Thanks to Antonio for this link and the Coupon link below.

Truly exceptional work by noted American photographer William Coupon. The single light set up that he uses is so simple, but in the hands of a master like this, the results are beautiful.

Here's some very fine work by Polish photographer Gosia Barta.

Some black & white nudes in the classic style by Marie-Claire Montanari

Hi everyone,

Due to some recent letters from readers, I've now enabled the Atom XML feed for this blog. I'll be the first to admit that I really don't understand it, but I figured out how to activate it and add a link to it so you more tech saavy visitors can take advantage of it. The link is at the bottom of the links on the left, just above the archives links.

You should also note I have added a new member to the Friends of Art Nudes links. Please stop by for a visit to All about nothing

Hey, I'm back from California. Boy, was it hot down there! Pasadena was a very interesting place though. Very rich, very clean, and with a disproportionate amount of beautiful people. All in all, a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there. Without a doubt, one of the highlights of the trip was visiting the Norton Simon Museum. What an incredible collection. No photography, but any art nude photographer should visit there for a taste of how the old master painters composed their images.

Any way, I'm glad to be back home, so lets start off with the work of A. Pilichowski-Ragno
