Wow Rick, one very nice "artsy" posting.
#1) "It is Scott down there, let's help him up boys, he's one of the infamous "rimmers' in the world.
#2) Be it straight up, upside down, sideways, there is certainly a scent of musk in the air.
#3) Gentleman, just be careful, that giraffe looks hungry for dangling parts.
Last two) Very nice masculine art!!
Thanks Rick!!
Scott - You're welcome.
It's been a good day for research. Something struck me as not quite right with the African warriors, even in 1978 during the Sexual Revolution, for National Geographic to publish that cover photo.
This is an excellent example of photo manipulation and creativity done by photographer VENFIELD8 who specializes in black nude men photography.
Side note: When I was just a wee one of 8 or 9, I visited someone with a huge collection of Nat Geos, and thumbing through one of the magazines I saw an article by Photographer George Rodger who first photographed the Nuba Wrestlers in 1947. In 1951 the photos appeared in the second issue of that magazine and although they were airbrushed(male genitalia and bloodstained battle wounds), there is one picture that has stuck with me through the years. It featured a muscled Nuba Warrior being celebrated on the shoulders of a fellow warrior for winning a match. BOTH NUDE!!! I was in little gay boy paradise! You can see the picture if you Google - Nuba Wrestlers/George Rodger. It's still very hot to see.
Milleson - Thanks for your research and the search subject!
Leni Riefenstahl became very much interested and enthralled by the Nuba people of Sudan and their culture, after she saw the George Rodger photograph.
She would on occasion live with them in their villages with her companion and assistant Horst Kettner from 1962-1977.
She also documented the culture of the Kau people of Sudan and wrote two illustrated books, The Last of the Nuba and The People of Kau. Her last visit to the Nuba was in 1999 when Riefenstahl was 97 ! at the height of civil conflict in Sudan. A documentary film ‘Ein Traum von Afrika’ was made of her trip, during which the helicopter she was in crashed, and she had to be airlifted to a hospital in Munich to recover from her injuries. During her convalescence, Riefenstahl admits to the interviewer, fault with her choices in her career and life.
