National Kitchen Klutzes Day, Rewritten
She isn’t cooking. She’s seducing—barely clothed, back against the wall beside the oven, the heat rising for reasons that have nothing to do with food. Her top clings in all the wrong places. She’s standing there like she knows exactly what just happened—and she’s not apologizing for any of it. Something burned, but it wasn’t dinner.
This black and white photograph reframes the kitchen as a space of tension and control—not culinary, but erotic. The setting is domestic; the mood is anything but. She’s not cleaning up a mess. She’s daring you to come closer and make one.
Posted for National Kitchen Klutzes of America Day—because not all kitchen accidents are innocent, and not all mistakes are unintended. Some spills are staged. Some heat is invited. Some burns don’t need ice.
From my Featured Photographs gallery—a rotating, uncurated selection of personal favorites from recent shoots and deep archives. I update it regularly as new images—and new obsessions—take hold.

Join Me At The Reception
Title: Fine Art Photography?
📍 Exhibition: Artists Council Exhibit
🏛️ Venue: Artists Center at the Galen, Palm Desert
📅 Opening Reception: December 12, 4–7 PM
My photograph, Fine Art Photography?, will be featured in the upcoming Artists Council exhibit. This piece is a playful yet pointed critique of the overused and often pretentious categorization of the term “fine art photography.”
The photograph is life-size, featuring a stunning 6-foot-tall woman who is nude. Standing before the piece offers an intriguing perspective on what it might be like in her company. Nudity is almost never seen in these exhibits, making this work a rare and bold addition to the show.
The composition references Portrait of Theresia, Countess Kinsky by Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun, 1793, part of the Norton Simon Museum collection in Pasadena, California.
I hope you’ll join me at the opening reception to view this unique work. The exhibit runs through January 12, 2025.

Apple Upside Down
Test shot
When I was a kid, my eyes were opened to the naked women of Playboy. But then along came Penthouse! Decades later, ‘Centerfold’ has just been published about the world of Penthouse and its creator, Bob Guccione. Guccione was also a photographer, and with these early editions comes an original slide from his archives. This is a scan of the one I’ve acquired. Kodachrome, no name, just marked ‘Test shot.’ There are more in this limited collection from his archives, and I have three on the way that are very relevant to current affairs. They are also much more revealing. I’ll share them when they arrive. Until then you can see my own nude photoshoots on my website at http://SecondFocus.com Take a look! Thanks!
Vintage Risqué 150
From the moment the camera was invented, it didn’t take long for photographers to explore the sensual and intimate side of human expression. Man went looking for naked women.
While collections of vintage cars, airplanes, tourist destinations, and family moments abound, there’s another side of photography that’s rarely celebrated: risqué and erotic imagery. I started searching out collections and this is the first of 150 photographs of erotica I have found. My own videos from pornochic to food, on my website at https://www.secondfocus.com/video Take a look and Thanks!
National Toilet Paper Day!
Record Setting!
Since starting up the video section on my website on July 10th, I am amazed with it’s success. This is through 5:00pm today July 26th. Today set a new record of 2,756 views. My videos are indeed risqué going back to behind the scenes from my photoshoots. And I am starting to add in some of my aviation videos. If you want to take a look, go to my website at SecondFocus.com click on the Menu Bar at the top and go to Videos. I think they are great fun! Thanks!
Video Again
I started up the video component of my work again. I had let it lapse for some time. On July 10th I renewed it and have been uploading my first explorations in video. Mostly somewhat behind the scenes of my photoshoots. Handheld cameras, short video clips, somewhat explicit. I think today looking back, they are great fun. And I guess my viewers do too. Not bad for just 7 days. On my website, click the menu bars at the top and click video. Thanks! http://SecondFocus.com

National Bike Month
I just found out that May is National Bike Month. Established in 1956, the League of American Bicyclists says it “… is a chance to showcase the many benefits of bicycling — and encourage more folks to giving biking a try”. So I hope you find my photograph encouraging. Thanks!
