Hello,I'm a newbie nudist. My name is Joseph, I live in the UK and I'm 27 years old. I work in a small pub and intend to take up photography as soon as I can afford a decent camera.I'm not very confident with my body but hope to change that by sharing it with all of you. I would like to ask what would be considered too vulgar? I have read the sites guide lines on uploading photos and will be searching through the forums to see if there are any other examples I can follow, but I would also like to hear from people with experience. Essentially my question is; what is a "true nudist"?
I'm looking forward to chatting with you all :D

    To see what a "true" nudist is, I suggest you check out the following sites:

    British Naturism: www.bn.org.uk/index.php

    International Naturist Federation: www.inffni.org


    As to photography, you don't need a fancy camera to get started. Much of photography is about framing, lighting, choosing subjects, and getting exposure, shutter, f-stop and other settings right for the subject. There is much on the creative and technical side of photography that can be done with a basic camera. A cheaper point-and-shoot camera is a lot smaller than a DSLR and a set of lenses.

    Thanks.
    After reading a few articles on those sites and forum threads on this one, I guess I would discribe myself as a "closet" nudist.
    I spend nearly all of my time at home naked and even cheekily stripping off at work sometimes once everyone has left and I'm cleaning the lines.
    I find that I'm far more comfortable when I go without clothes but, if I'm honest, I always assumed it was a fetish thing and was ashamed to admit it even though I didn't feel anything sexual as a result.
    Now I realise it's just a preference and it's been wonderful reading the accounts of other people who have been through the same thing, so consider me enlightened :)

    My photography has been coming along, actually. I snap picures with my smart phone but the quality is poor. I figure if I'm going to take it seriously I should probably invest :p

    Your experience is much like my own. Until about ten years ago I never understood exactly what a nudist was, but despite the fact that I always preferred to be clothes free, I didn't consider myself a nudist. After I investigated the lifestyle I realized that I have always been a nudist. Welcome to our world.
