Given Easter is so closely associated with Spring, it seemed the perfect time for a spring time visist to the farm.  Check out more on the NEXT PAGE HERE:

Soft or Rough?


What is your preference?  Solid or hollow, smooth or rough, soft or hard and crude?   Photographer Jan Deuzeman and model Dutch Bart explore what makes both the best, and most lickable bunny to chomp, and go down on this Easter.  Check out more on the NEXT PAGE HERE: 

Jan Deuzeman: The Ultimate Offering


'Don’t be afraid! I am the First and Last. I am the living one. I died, but look–I am alive forever and ever!'
Revelation 1:17-18


I don't post many religiously themed on the site, for a many different and complicated reasons.   I make an exception at Easter, and when the images come from artist Jan Deuzeman.  I wrote some of my reasons in last year's Easter post, but quite simply, like so many, my faith has been tested throughout my lifetime.  Although I've grown to despise organized religion, especially so many of it's leaders, my faith has remained strong.


Watching so much hate and cruelty in the world, especially in the name of religion, my faith has actually gotten stronger.   Anyone who truly follows the Bible is familiar with Matthew 7-12. (The Golden Rule) 'Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you: do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets'  I can't think of a word more opposite of this message than the word discrimination.


Holidays are all about tradition, and this post continues the tradition of sharing Jan's work on Easter.  For this series with model Scott Miller, Jan strived to approach the religious theme, in both a respectful, yet outspoken way.  When combating the almost constant stream of hate from politicians, claiming to be acting on their religious believes, being respectful is important, being loud and outspoken is necessary and crucial.
