Farewell...

Over the past couple days I was thinking about getting back into the Half Nekkid-Thursdays. As it is Thursday today I was beginning to prepare for my posting and went to Views From the Back Row, the hub and start of the weekly postings.

As it has been a while since I had done a HNT, I had not been to Osbasso's site, and so it was a surprise that HNT has ended.

I was only an HNTer for about a year (2008-2009), and there were probably times I pushed beyond what the intent was, but I enjoyed chatting with others involved.

I dropped out in 2009 for a number of reasons, but the primary one is that I don't think I'm much of a blogger.

With all this in mind, I have decided to essentially abandon (eventually probably close) this blog. I am still going to attempt to keep my general blog up and running: quafaie.blogspot.com

To all my followers, thank you for following me.

2012

Happy New Year.
To all my followers, please check out my new blog: http://quafaie.blogspot.com/ because that is where I am posting more.
I will be updating this site with correct links to my nude photos, as well as a place for visually NSFW material.

Another site update

Ok, after some time thinking about where my life is going, I have begun to notice that I am going through a shift in my maturity. As part of it I am wanting (at this point in time) to take a step or two back from the public display of nudity I have on the web. This means I will be much more selective of what photos of mine are on here, and in particularly on my Flickr account.

Another part of this shift is wanting to have the ability to express more general comments, thoughts and opinions that are not tainted with a blog that is NSFW / contains nudity. Therefore I will be posting some of these general comments etc on a new blog: http://quafaie.blogspot.com/

This blog will still be staying, just have less posting on it - probably on par with the what I have had in the past. Instead this blog will continue to be the NSFW blog, and may expand a little beyond just photos of me. I will probably still post the occasional one of me that I find artful and not too sexual.

That brings me to a final point about why I am partly changing things online: I feel that some of how I have presented myself online (more in social profiles) is miss interpreted as being more sexual that I actually am - people get a wrong impression.
This may also have this blog evolve more into a nudist / naturalist blog, where I talk about that aspect of my life. However there will still be links to more gay and sexually explicit material - hey a guy has needs :-P

I hope any followers I have here will follow me on my new blog, which I hope to get up and going soon - there are some final touches that have to be made to the first post.

Decided...

I decided to submit photo D to the contest.
Thanks to all who gave input to my decision.

Another contest .... another photo consideration

After chatting with a friend about some of my photos, he suggested another one to consider. It is below.
I am calling it D as the others are already A, B & C.

Another contest ....

Another blog I follow occasionally is having a photo contest. This one the only restriction is a Self Portrait.
As there are no restrictions on the full frontal aspect I am trying to decided between the following photos to enter.

Both A & B were taken last year in the Canadian Rockies. My indecision on the frontal shot is more the squinting look on my face as I face the sun to take the photo.

Photo C was taken about 3 years ago, and is one of my favourite views of Calgary.

Please let me know what you, my followers, think is the better one to enter.

PS the contest is on this site: http://www.aussielicious.com.au/

revamping of this blog

I have been thinking about what to do with this blog, and a couple others I have. And at the moment I have decided on the following:

I have combined all quotes, zen sayings, etc from this blog and a writing blog I have into a new blog: Inspirations http://zen-quotes-tarot.blogspot.com/

This blog will be for more of the Adult content (some revealing pics of me, stories with adult content, etc), plus LGBTQ related comments etc.

My writing blog ( http://hughkemeny.blogspot.com/ ) will be for more notes and comments on writing. There may be the occasional cross-over post where related to LGBTQ content. This area may be where I take a while to find a comfortable home.

Through my writing blog I have a couple other blogs/sites related to writing and chain mail I do, so check them out there if you're interested.


Over the next few months I will also be revamping the old posts here - making sure links work, and pics are visible.

I won!

I won the photo contest at ScenicBoys
From what I recall it was close, I believe I won by about 1% of the vote.

Here is the official post that I won: http://scenicboys.typepad.com/scenicboys/2011/06/an-the-winner-is.html

The next thing is to find a friend who is free to join me on the trip.

Thanks Dusty & Garet, and all those who voted for me.

Possible revival of this blog

Life has been fairly busy for me and I am trying to determine if I will now have time to continue this bog.
I had it shut down for a few reason, some of which are still valid. If I continue this blog I have to decide what I do with it.
I currently have other blogs that I maintain for other reason:
2 Tumblr blogs for photos:

• NudeBoys http://nudecanadianboy.tumblr.com/ which is intended to have fairly non-sexual photos of guy I like from other blogs, with the occasional photo of me. The photos are primarily nude guys (so NSFW), with the most sexual thing being erections &/or kissing (which I find more romantic).
• Gay Porn Collection http://gayporncollection.tumblr.com/ is the other Tumblr, where there is more sexual content. At the moment it is where I am dumping all the porn I have on my computer, with the occasional photo I like on other blogs that I think is too sexual for my NudeBoys site. (This is definitely a NSFW site.)
• Hugh Kemeny's Writing http://hughkemeny.blogspot.com/ is where I post some writing, inspirational, and other thoughts I have. There is very little sexual content on it, as it is intended as a somewhat professional writing blog (when I get into more writing).

Through my Hugh Kemeny's Writing blog there are some other blogs related to my writing, but they are not worth mentioning here as they are for specific writing.

The big thing on my mind about this blog, which I have come to some terms with, is how much I want my photos out there connected to who I really am, as they could dramatically affect my career.
However, since most of my personal photos I put here are intended to be for artistic reasons, I am hoping that will alleviate.

Any comments on how I should proceed with this blog, or ideas of what I should do are appreciated.

Vote for me, please.

I entered a photo contest with the photo below. I am now looking for people to vote for my photo, as the winner will be selected by internet votes.

Please go to http://scenicboys.typepad.com/ to vote. Please also pass this on so others can vote :)

Thanks,

Eric
