Historical Hotness

Single subject Tumblrs have me at hello. This one had me at hot. The genius behind My Daguerreotype Boyfriend has begun combing the annals of historical photography for the men who melted the lens, even way back when. I think the site makes an awfully good case for you guys out there to dust off your cravats and join something that requires a uniform. I'm going to share a few photos with you, but you'll have to visit the site for your boyfriend's stats. Some are criminals, some are soldiers, some are imports...all are hot. (Except one or two with muttonchops...)

Gosh, something about those sepia tones make the brooding even broodier.

Terry's Tumblr.

Terry "T-Bone" Richardson (did you know he has that tattooed above his...ahem, "T-Bone"?) has a Tumblr, and he's not afraid to use it. Tumblr is a micro-blogging site; an interface suited for brief posts of tiny snippets of information. With Terry the information mostly consists of snaps of models, self-portraits, and videoed bits of behind the scenes photoshoot footage. Surprisingly there are no nudie pics yet, but I'm sure that will change in time. Terry's turn at Tumblr certainly means the web venue will no doubt become a photog hot-spot in no time, which makes sense; the layout kind of reminds me of a strip of film, one photo after another.

Shots from Terry's Tumblr. You may be shocked that his T-Bone hasn't made an appearance yet, but he's just getting started--give the man some time.
