Seasonal Sightings:

Every year, I enjoy checking out social media for shots of adult film stars donning their bunny ears.  Check out some of my favorites on the NEXT PAGE HERE:

'Twas The Month Before Easter...


For the past seven or eight years, the month before Easter was all about planning.  Usually, it involved a back and forth with photographer Tom Nakielski, (Lights On Studio) about whether he'd found a model for the Easter shoot.  Then, we started concepts and ideas.  Well, at least I did, Tom usually ended up shooting exactly what he wanted, which always, turned out much better than anything I suggested.


Then I waited, not just for the shots, but which fluffy or feathery little cuties Tom managed to 'borrow' for the shoot.  With his years of experience shooting family photos, Tom knew a great Easter shot usually involved a bunny and some chicks.  Tom always found someone who would lend them their pet bunny, or know someone with some chicks that he could borrow for the afternoon.

I always loved finally seeing the images, and especially where those little Easter cuties ended up.  Often, Tom strategically placed them on the model's naked behind.  Although the chicks seemed to enjoy it, Tom had to shoot fast before they scampered onto other parts of the models anatomy.  Thankfully, I don't recall any major mishaps, and the bunnies for the most part, didn't nibble any sensitive areas.


Regular readers of FH are not only familiar with Tom's work, they also know Tom is no longer shooting.  Health and mobility issues made it impossible for Tom to continue.  Tom went all out for his holiday shoots, with not only finding cute animals, (remember the turkey story...) but paid close attention to every detail from the background he used, to the props and fresh flowers he always had on set.


This year, in the month before Easter, Tom participated in something much more important than shooting naked male models and baby chicks.  Although he's still struggling with his health, the last year in rehab has helped build his strength.  Not just his physical strength, but his emotional strength and desire to fight and resist. 


As both a citizen and a veteran, Tom is invested in his country, and like so many, is frustrated and angry about the current administration and the hateful and bigoted leadership.  That's why, once he was well enough to get a day pass from rehab, he went out to protest.  The images below are from the 'Hands Off' protest that took place earlier this month in Lansing MI.  So many of us want to do something, to resist, to fight.  So many of us do this mainly, from behind our keyboard.  Kudos to Tom, still fighting health issue, for fighting, and ensuring his voice is heard.


'The protest was e exhilarating and emotional. Great speakers that energized the crowd of thousands. As I made my way to the front of the crowd, they parted the way to let me through They patted me on the shoulder, saluted, and thanked me for my service. It was a very emotional moment that made me cry.'

Pretty In Pink:


If you don't have a cute scruffy bunny to scratch and cuddle with this Easter, what about a hot Scruffy Texan?   This scruffy, and very slutty Texan, would be delicious to find at the end of a long Easter hunt.  No, there's no gold wrapper to take off, but I'm guessing we would all have fun slowly peeling off his pink.



The Painting Process


'Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.'
Pablo Picasso


When it comes to Easter egg paining, many people just go with the flow.  They're more improvisational with their style and colors like Jackson Pollock.  They let the paint fly, and don't worry about complimentary colors or specific designs. 

Others however, are more precise and detailed, more in the style of Salvador Dali or Leonardo da Vinci. They plan ahead, ensuring everything flows according the design they've planned.   They ensure everything is neat, and visually organized.

Then there's the combo, maybe a little like Pablo Picasso.  It was Picasso, along with his friend Georges Braque, who invented a new style of painting called cubism. Inspired by African sculpture, Picasso and Braque used simple shapes and a small range of colours to paint objects, people and landscapes.

I think I blend the painting processes in both my art, and my writing.  I tend to do a lot of pre-planning and research, and try to ensure everything is laid out a clean and precise way.  Then, when it's time to write the text, I tend to go with the flow, sometimes ending up places I never foresaw at the beginning.


When it comes to body art however, precision is the key.   Most people going in for a tattoo wouldn't support their tattoo artist just 'going with the flow'  Trevor for example, seen here captured by Jim from Studio1x, obviously had a clear idea of how he wanted his body canvas to look.  The artist who painted Trevor, obviously spent hours focused on his body, ensuring every color, every detail and every design aspect was exactly what Trevor had in mind.


When I paint Easter eggs, I tend not to do much in the way of design.  I like eggs with one solid color, usually a pastel.  I look the look of three or four complimentary colors in my basket.  When I do add design, it's usually just lines, or circular in nature.  Trevor's artist appears to have followed Picasso.  Although there is an abundance of art, each section is unique, with simple shapes, and just a few colors.  Curious if you had the naked, but totally blank canvas of Trevor in front of you, what you might create?

12 Days: Benjamin Hollingsworth in An Easter Bloom 🌼

'A young gardener sets out to save her family farm by entering a floral competition for Easter. She meets a local pastor along the way who helps her restore the hope she lost.'

If you're a Hallmark fan, or a fan of television in general, I'm guessing you've seen and enjoyed projects featuring actor Benjamin Hollingsworth.  The Canadian actor was born in Ontario and graduated from the National Theatre School of Canada in 2006.  Even before he graduated however, Benjamin was already making his mark, appearing in Canadian based film and television shows.


Early roles included turns in films and on television shows including; Heartland, Degrassi: The New Generation and The Music Man and Cutting Edge 3: Chasing The Dream.  Hollingworth had early roles appearing on CSI Miami, Suits, Divine: The Series and Once Upon A Time.


Before long, Hollingworth was taking on leading man role in numerous Hallmark romance and holiday films.  In 2015, he co-starred alongside Marcia Gay Harden and Rob Lowe on the CBS procedural, Code Black.  When that series was cancelled, Hollingworth wasn't out of work for long, quickly cast on the Netflix drama Virgin River.

Like Bunnies.... 🐰

 'Ideas are like rabbits. You get a couple and learn how to handle them, and pretty soon you have a dozen.' 
John Steinbeck

You know what they say about bunnies.... In addition to being cute and furry, they're also known for their frequency of fucking.  This is one of the reasons bunnies have always been connected with sex and erotica.  It's also one of the reasons that Hugh Hefner chose the bunny for Playgirl.  The association with sex, and also because bunnies are seen as youthful and playful. 🐰

Willow Twink

Sex however, isn't the only thing bunnies and porn stars have in common.  There's also more to both than just what you see.  Each have another side, sometimes in stark contrast to the adorable exterior that we usually see. 

Andrew Delta

Yes bunnies can be cuddly and cute.  Yes, porn stars can be sexually assertive and raw.  But... if you catch them at the just right time, they can be just the opposite of what they present.  For bunnies, breeding season can be deadly.  Bunnies can fight, and when it's time to breed they often get very aggressive.  They're frequently injured during this time, sometimes even killed.

Oliver Carter

With adult film stars, I find the opposite often to be true.  When the camera's rolling, their sexual energy can be raw and intense.  When the cameras are off, they're usually more laid back and reserved.  I've interviewed many adult porn stars over the years, and most were incredibly nice, and incredibly kind.  For many, who we see on screen is more a character they've created, and not who they really are.

Sometimes nibbling on a ear isn't quite satisfying enough.  On those occasions, only a big head will do the trick.
