Posts of Naturism-UK RSSMon, 07 May 2018 19:24:44 GMT Sports in the buff is fun, and volleyball is probably the favorite game among naturists – perhaps because it is also a perfect beach sport? There are numerous naked volleyball tournaments, with more and more appearing every year, and the major ones in North America are listed at nudistvolleyball.com.    And although the uniting theme is volleyball, some participants contribute with other activities, such as DJing or fire-spinning, as I filmed at SunnyBowl last year. What is really nice about nudist volleyball events is that there are players of all levels of experience, from complete novice to professional, so you’ll surely find a team where you can fit well!   The biggest nudist tournament in volleyball is held at White Thorn Lodge in Pennsylvania, and when I visited it for the first time 2 years ago, the level of games simply blew my mind! But I also found it strange that none of that was photographed and filmed. I thought that awesomeness was too good not to be shared with the rest of the world, and dreamt to change that.   more: https://activenaturists.net/2016/07/22/volleyball-in-the-nude-as-never-captured-before/

The project, called “Sea of Hull,” was the creation of New York-based photographer Tunick Spencer. The mass of bodies was meant as serve as a warning against climate change, and to celebrate Hull’s relationship with the sea - the artist told the Guardian. “It’s the idea that the humanity and bodies is flooding the streets,” he said. “So there are many ways you can think about it.” The northern English city’s Ferens Art Gallery commissioned the project. Tunick is known for his large-scale photoshoots involving crowds of nude people around the world. He recently called for 100 women to pose naked at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland on July 17.
