Anyone who has been a fan of Corinna probably remembers the sensational Pier photo shoot - Choose FEMJOY from the left menu and go to the last page (page 12). It arguably is one of the most popular shots on FEMJOY and it has been one of the hallmarks of FEMJOY's main page for a long time. They tried to do it again, and they set Stefan Soell to the task of recreating more images that look similar, he did so, but was he successful? I don't really think so.
While the images clearly resemble those of the first pier set, something is definitely missing. Corinna is as sweet and as charming as she has always been, but something is missing. I think that it's Stefan Soell's fault, he just no longer is the same. The set feels like it has been forcibly churned out of a machine, not the slow and deliberate creative work of an artist. Sure, the new set looks beautiful, and Corinna still looks charming, but I don't find the high regard that he had for female beauty permeating his pictures, not anymore.
What's the point of creating an exact photo shoot? It just the same old commercialism that kills the spirit of an artist - the masses loved it, they're sure to love it again.
Anyway, the pictures still make for a wonderful reminder of the great masterpieces that once adorned the pages of FEMJOY, and that hopefully will adorn it again sometime in the future.
Corinna is one of the few influential models who have created a new beauty standard in the world of FEMJOY and almost every other web site out there. With her gentle German beauty and her amazing smile she just was meant to be the graceful woman who has helped many people through hard days through her beauty.
I still remember when I first saw her breathtaking pictures almost three years ago, and how I instantly was inspired by all the ideals that she represents. She is a true gem in the world of beauty.
I just couldn't miss this gallery for anything. It is indeed a very special gallery. I hope that you will enjoy it as much as I did.
Germany is full of beautiful locations, both in the north and in the south. Bodensee, which is located near the Alps, is one of them. It serves here as the perfect location for Susann's beauty to shine.
Susann's natural serene beauty radiates through the images and complements the beauty of the tranquil environment surrounding her. The images contain a simple message, we can live with nature in harmony.
I hope that you will enjoy this small collection of authentic German nudes.
Germany is a country that has a wonderful culture. The reality is often far from being similar to the stereotypes. The German language is an amazingly beautiful language - even when it's time to court someone - and German women are often very intelligent and very charming.
Yes, people from different countries always say that Germans have an obsession about cleanliness and order. However, many Germans will easily tell you that there are neighborhoods in Germany which are far from being spotless and that Austria looks more clean than Germany at times. There also are young people who are bored, have untidy closets, dirty apartments, and practically speak a new language - it's not just globalization. Germany just has its own culture and subcultures, just like any other country. It's true that "Ordnung muss sein" is a personal motto and even a law for some people, but I am sure that it's similar in a lot of other places.
There are many great things that are made in Germany, and those include those wonderful nudes by many photographers including Stefan Soell. Also, those brave young German models - Corinna, Anna-Leah, and Susann are wonderful examples - are often very vibrant and beautiful in their own way. It's no wonder that German women were mentioned in the German national anthem.
Mitzie is just as beautiful. It's really hard to describe beauty, it always transcends words. It's also hard to describe German beauty, it's always very special.
It has been a long time since I featured anything from MC-Nudes, and the reason is simple, their images are too explicit for me. I find some sort of disrespect for the female ideal when there's such a large-scale production of nudes, which normally leads to low standards when it comes to offering the world true beauty.
However, Susann is the exception as usual. It is somewhat strange that MC-Nudes is one of the few websites where she appeared, but a quick inspection proves that her standards are as wonderful as ever. Yes, the sets there aren't as good as those produced by Stefan Soell for FEMJOY, but she is amazingly beautiful, and that makes most of her sets amazing.
I will always be glad to make an exception for beauty, wherever it may be found.
I feel that Susann adds a certain grace to the pages of Graceful Nudes whenever I add a new gallery of hers. It is rarely possible to describe a model just by looking her images, but I imagine her as being amazingly intelligent and graceful.
She represents the power and the beauty of humanity. The beauty that we all posess but that she manages to develop and take it further into a land of elegance and sufficiency. Sufficiency that doesn't require self-mutilation.
She's beautiful, and she's generous enough to share it with us. I have a lot of respect for her. I wish we had more models who share her grace.
I think that our most important quest in life consists of fighting for our individuality and for our happiness regardless of what life throws at us. It takes an amazing amount of courage to overcome the fear of being honest about who you are, and this courage is a part of what defines your own beauty.
A model who decides to pose nude fights a lot of preconceptions and an amazing amount of fear regarding her own identity, but the models who emerge victorious from that battle are the models who are most beautiful. They decide that they know who they are and are confident that their beauty is good enough to be shared with the rest of the world. They certainly deserve our respect in having won their own quest. A quest where difference means being oneself, not buying some products in order to fill some mysterious void.
It takes courage to be beautiful.
Beauty is never related to being uncivilized. It's always at the zenith of our civilization. Our beauty includes our works, our poetry, our machines, our art, our morals, our ideas, our visions. If morals and culture are not the machinery of civilization then I do not know what is.
That sort of claim is targeted at our civilization and our beauty. By inadvertently attacking our achievements we desensitize ourselves to having them attacked by others. Then we wake up one day realizing that we lie to ourselves as much as we lie to please others by making such statements.
Beauty isn't just about the body, the mind is very involved in the process. The mind is in control, dictating and telling us what to do. We should never stop using our minds, as they truly are what sets us apart in nature, and by referring to that state that represents our achievements as being mindless we mindlessly rob ourselves of its significance; a nude woman is a woman who represents confidence and morals. Those two interpretations come from your own mind.
We should have no guilt about our morality or our minds. Those are the things that truly set us apart and make us human. We should critically and consciously consider every statement that we make. If we stop doing that then we will lose our individuality, and therefore become like a legless spider that's crawling on the forest floor. Devoid of dignity and wishing for death.
Discover your own beauty.
I sometimes feel as if we're floating in a sea of perverse hypocrisy. One of the most baffling things about life is how nudity is sometimes rejected or seen as an unnatural form of being or self-expression. We were not born wearing Tuxedos and Victorian-era dresses. Getting rid of superfluous clothing whenever it's not needed actually makes sense, and that's why we wear swimsuits at the beach on a hot summer day.
I also find it very baffling when people claim that they lose their respect for a model when she starts posing nude - do we lose respect for our girlfriends when they're nude? It's also very similar when models refuse to do nude modeling in order not to jeopardize their future careers. It is a true shame that we should be ashamed of being who we are.
Nudity is liberating and adds to our own sense of self-confidence because when we take off our clothes we break through one of the walls that we hide behind. Once we look around and find that we are accepted for who we are we feel a heightened sense of personal value and of freedom.
Clothes don't set us apart from all the living things living on this planet. It satisfies our anthropocentrism by shielding us from nature and making us feel that we're special, and therefore entitled to all the resources of our planet. There are many things, including biological functions, that we share with a myriad of species. We can't just get rid of all the similarities by pointing to a slight difference that is the product of a mere political/social construct.
Nudity is just a straightforward case of being. It's not a dress that we put on, it's those dresses that we should view with suspicion, as opposed to honesty in the form of nudity.
Bigotry seems to be something that fills this world. People are very happy to point out what they don't like and to even ask to have the right to stop others from doing it, which is funny given that whatever a person does is likely to offend someone else.
Freedom is not stopping others from doing whatever it is that you do not like, freedom is doing whatever you like as long as you're not harming anyone or anything. All those sodomy laws and the laws that stop people from doing things just because they are not socially acceptable are a disgrace for every living human being. No one has the right to shackle the minds of others. Such attitudes precipitated the witchhunts of the middle ages, and we don't want to go back there once more.
We are living in a golden era of freedom, but millions of people all over the world seem to not be comfortable with that. It's very baffling, we should be asking for more freedom, for more bravery, not for more restrictions. Even if you're religious, no one gave you the license to play god or to judge others.
Many prominent scientists have been called heretics when they first presented their ideas to the world. Then they were later acknowledged as great people. I think that this is ironic. How many inventions and ideas do you suppose never made it to light due to similar attitudes?
Demagogues and many members of the clergy are very happy to turn relatively innocuous acts into acts that make god mad at humanity. I haven't read anywhere that a human being can know what the will of "god" is. Let alone know god's mood.
The key to life is scientific thinking. Common sense isn't always that correct. In the name of science and beauty, the next time someone says that natural disasters are caused by the actions of some individuals take the time to think about it, and try to find the evidence that corroborates those widespread claims, more often than not there will be none.
Lightbolts simply aren't heavenly fireworks.
