If it can be said that, “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder”, is not ripenedr2perfection based on a very similar highly personalised viewpoint? Knowing the optimum moments to gather and savour something extends well beyond the culinary.

Still looking for images the have the essence of aesthetic, exotic and erotic.
In particular featuring high quality black and white images that celebrate more matured and ripened bodies.
Very, very hard to find!
Artist quality photographs with excellent compositions and lighting – NOT so called grannie or MILF porn, both terms we hate and only used here as examples of what we will not feature.
So does mature erotic subject matter in image making actually exist. Or is the prevailing bias towards “perfection”, idealization and youth just to dominate to overcome. Do we only hope to get the aesthetic, exotic and erotic delivered via the lens of a confused male gaze?
The enormous global demographic that is seeking more than overt imagery of flesh coloured genitalia with ridiculous backgrounds and settings is being ignored. Why, even given their wealth and influence.
So do we conclude that “beauty” and the erotic can only be a passing event? Are we all simply personalities and bodies diminishing gradually with our sexual zeniths but fleeting moments or now just memories?
The lack of seriously creative  and well-made mature imagery would suggest so. Yet the technical and creative expertise to create such art clearly exist.
We suggest that it  has to be about subject matter and content selection. Combined with the perception that such an aesthetic is not desired or sort by others, making it not commercial or marketable. (We hope that this alone is certainly NOT at the forefront of art making and creative intention)

Perhaps the narcissistic construct of beauty found in advertising and a “money making” paradigm has won?

But there is another element that needs to be considered in this particular perception.

Are we not  all on the same path and journey and may  all feel the fading  and lose of sexual currency. No one curious at all in recording or interpreting this journey? Perhaps we prefer to remain denial and turn a “blind eye” to the ageing process.

So, a question for everyone. When would you be considered or believe yourself ripened to perfection? Maybe soon, one day, now, yesterday, cannot remember anymore ……..

After months of searching we have found some creative images that feature the well-matured human form – ripened2perfection. We have attempted to feature some of these on this site. They mainly sit within a narrow artistic approach and intention.

It remains almost impossible to find images of mature males that are not flesh coloured poor porn, legs open look at my GENITALS and potentially for a gay audience (no judgement there). The female images are usually found in the genre “boudoir”. These at time do capture a degree of the erotic and are creative in terms of composition, lighting and allure. But predominately constructed for the male gaze.

At the same time we have found thousands of stunning monotone and colour images featuring beautiful younger bodies (try Tumbler and Pinterest yourself). However again male images tend to focus on the ripped super bodies and proud cock theme. Yes we accept not always but as a general theme this prevails.

Is it not possible to transpose these arts making and design techniques to photographing mature bodies?

A challenge – Do a Google search along the lines of erotic mature photographs or mature nude images and not get a “granny” porn site (we hate that term) or old bloke with a younger women or the other way around (the so called Cougar).

See if you can find a site containing or that sells mature erotic pornograhy for couples or featuring older couples etc. Sorry or the amature post out there simply do not count!

Good luck.

We would love to see great production values and creative lighting and themes. Please note again – not amateur home made so-called “oldies” on Red tube and similar sites.

We are saddened that the male gaze certainly continues to dominate the recording of the majority of nudes. The focus being on the female form being documented for the male gaze (with apologies to women who love looking at female forms). This creates a genre that is heavily shaped by both a male and youth construct of the erotic and often with a preoccupation with genitals and money shots.

This is not to discount that many of these images are not only both superb technically as photographic images and but also sensual/erotic in subject matter.

Is there anyone else out there who has an opinion on our comments or a desire to see high quality artistic photographic imagery and erotic film that features well vintaged bodies?

Are we so dominated by the media constructs of youth, ”beauty” and fashion that no one cares?

We simply cannot believe that we are the only people  in our mid to late fifties who are seeking such material?  To both enrich our creative lives and to stimulate our mature sexuality and lust for erotica.

Forms created through the use of materials, light, and physical space. Technique and vision beyond belief from other times and cultures.

The life force of water and its link to sensuality. Images provided are not confined to mature bodies. They simple cannot be located?

水 Sui or mizu, meaning “Water”, represents the fluid, flowing, formless things in the world. Outside of the obvious example of rivers and the lake, plants are also categorized under sui, as they adapt to their environment, growing and changing according to the direction of the sun and the changing seasons.

Enjoy

The truth is: Most women do not have satisfying sex lives. SLOW SEX can change that.

Better sex is about one thing: better orgasm. This life-altering guide teaches men and women how to use the practice of Orgasmic Meditation-or OM-to slow down, connect emotionally, and achieve authentic female sexual satisfaction. The promise: In just fifteen minutes every woman can become orgasmic. And, with the right partner and the right technique, that orgasm could last and last!

For more than a decade, Nicole Daedone has been leading the “slow sex movement,” which is devoted to the art and craft of the female orgasm. OM is the act of slowing down, tuning in, and experiencing a deeper spiritual and physical connection during sex. SLOW SEX reveals the philosophy and techniques of OM and includes a step-by-step, ten-day OM starter program, as well as OM secrets for achieving ultimate satisfaction. It also includes exercises to help enhance readers’ “regular” sex lives, such as Slow Oral for Her, Slow Oral for Him, and Slow Intercourse.

This book is the argument for daily intimacy, and for paying attention as the foundation of pleasure, all with a focus on the female experience.
