Traces & Faces
Memorial Men
In today's political environment, silence is not an option. These men fought against fascism and autocracy. Their sacrifice and massive loss of life was about preventing, not facilitating the return of a hateful cult lead dictatorship.
Ryan O'Neal: ACTORS & Skin
I also included him, as when I was researching, I was impressed by his career. Starting on television in the early 60's, O'Neal, despite his flaws, managed an over six decade career working with some of the industries biggest stars. His initial claim to fame was that of a heartthrob on Peyton Place, a night time soap. Few actors who reach fame on prime-time soaps went on to feature film superstardom, especially in the 60's and 70's.
O'Neal by Baron WolmanI also read a bit his turn in the 1982 gay themed film Partners. I'd seen the caps, but never watched the scene or the film. I finally found a copy and watched last week. The film inspired me to put O'Neal up next in my Actors & Skin series. The film had all the gay stereotypes and lame jokes that you'd expect from a cop buddy comedy made in the early 80's. It also had surprisingly fewer than I expected, and was really an enjoyable watch.

Eyes on the Prize
'And The Trophy Goes To....'
One of the most popular posts on the site last summer was my two part feature on Rent Cheque. (First of the Month) Rent Cheque is a Vancouver based strip club with a focus on Amateurs and Amateur nights. I've featured many professional strippers, but people love to see an average guy stepping up on stage, and taking the risk and taking it all off.
As The Come: Zach by Lights On Studio
Tom has been dealing with some health issues, and the aftermath of a fall, making lifting, and then holding his beloved camera, an impossible task. Still, the desire to create, as Yoda would say, is strong with this one. So strong, Tom takes the plunge into his archives, whenever there's a model or old shoot I want to explore and share more of on the site.
