Earlier in the summer, (HERE:) I wrote about looking forward to watching The Institute on MGM+.  I loved the book by Stephen King, it up there as one of my favorites from the author.  I was also glad it was being made as a series and not a movie.  There was far too much story for just a 2hr movie.  The show ended this past Sunday, but I still have a few episodes to go.  So far, loving Ben Barnes, (above) and the rest of the cast and am happy it was renewed for a second season. 

Highlights: Torso, 1986

(Not Quite) Alone by the Pool: Max Dice by Tony Xavier Photography


As much we all love a little quite and solitude, after a few hours, we usually at some point, start craving a little attention and human contact.  Model Max Dice certainly anticipated this, and wisely ensured a plan was in place for a little later in the afternoon.


Max initially connected with Photographer Tony Xavier on social media.  Tony remembers first seeing hot images of Max on Twitter a few months ago.  Tony ended up however, shooting Max a message on Instagram, a platform that's usually makes it easier, for creatively connecting.  They arranged this solo shoot, along with another shoot and theme you'll see over the weekend.


'Max is incredibly creative and it's so nice to see him shine with different creators.'


'Tony works hard on all sides of the creative process.  Not only creating nice pictures but also making sure the model is comfortable and relaxed, and has a great time.'


I think the shot just above and the one just below are two of my favorite images from Tony's work with Max.  Also a dancer, Max is keenly connected to his body, leading to some visually stunning lines, cruves and poses. 




As you can see from the images below, a third person person joined Tony and Max as they worked. It seems they wanted to provide a bit of a helping hand.  If you check back on Friday evening, you'll get an introduction to the attention grabber and enjoy his own day by the pool!
