Curious website…

I stumbled upon this tumblr blog earlier today, searching for chess-related material. Avantegarde, risqué, …in other words, ART.

Photo by Marc Blackie. ”Well, I am an English photographer, based primarily in London and I create ever so slightly strange photos and short films involving women in impalpably erotic situations. ….I do have a fairly wicked sense of playfulness and obviously a great love for my opposite of body and sexuality” You can read more of this interview HERE. Or, visit his website and twitter.

Model/photographer unknown. Board set up correctly…and NICE tail! The only conclusion I can come to is that this is a professionally done photo, in good taste and while I would hesitate to say it is heartwarming, it certainly is arousing!

No comment necessary, but I would like to express my admiration–or perhaps my concern– that she does not seem concentrated enough…

More Marc Blackie. A great photo. The position is filled with traps and unusual obstacles. The player’s hands are tied. As much as she wants to, she can not pick up a piece!

‘I am yet another hominid biped. I am the type who endeavours to live life in as simple and creative a manner as possible. Mainly in London, England. Sometimes in other places. I used to spend all my time making music and now divide my time between various musical and photographic projects’
