I found my work posted on this site, Male Submission Art, which is filled with terrific erotic imagery and interesting commentary:
A shirtless man wears a collar made of heavy chain padlocked around his neck.
This image is one from Glen Mitchell’s fetish photography portfolio, suggested by Trekker, who deserves thanks for pointing it out to me. I like the contrast of vulnerability and strength that Scott, the model in this photograph, shows through his body language. The slightly hunched shoulders, the relaxed facial expression, and the open pose combined could speak volumes about gentleness and sensitivity.
At the same time, the chain collar at his neck is almost ridiculously large and thick. Chain is a favorite restraint for many people, and one of mine as well. The strength of the metal can either make me feel equally strong as though by some miracle of emotional osmosis, or it can make me feel much smaller, softer, and more yielding by its incongruity.
Thanks for creating such excellent work! Both Trekker, who suggested the piece, and I obviously like it a lot. :) Thanks also for the compliments on the commentary. One of the things that I hoped would happen from MaleSubmissionArt.com was that photographers creating this kind of diverse imagery depicting men and other male-identified people could have a place where their work was showcased to an audience they might not have reached otherwise. I hope that this has been successful for you.
