I want to dedicate this weekly post, featuring vintage gay photographs, to the men and women who lived in a more critical time where being true to yourself and loving who you want wasn’t always an option and came at a great price. Do you have a photo you would like to share? Email me at bosguymail@gmail.com.
Everyday this week I have 6AM conference calls with colleagues in China. This handsome photo of Eyal Berkover in Instinct Magazine certainly brightened my morning. Maybe these pictures will help you wake up too.
Here is one more. To see all the photos by photographer Angel Ruiz link here. If you like, you may also follow the handsome Israeli, Eyal, on Instagram, here. 
Kevin McDermott is an accomplished photographer who first came to my attention in 2014 when his book, Virgin Island, with Detroit-based model, Todd Sanfield, was released. McDermott is getting attention again for a new book that is available for pre-order called High Line Nudes.
The forthcoming book juxtaposes the male form against impressive and iconic New York City architecture and is now available for pre-order from the publisher, Ten Avenues Press.
It was the first thing that came to mind when I stumbled upon this romantic photo. If you don’t get the reference, then I suppose it might not make as much sense but it remains a beautiful photograph.
Here’s to hoping that you end your day with an unexpected embrace and kiss.

I’m toying with making this a weekly post. Let me know your thoughts.
I want to dedicate this and future posts, featuring vintage gay photos, to the men and women who lived in a more critical time where being true to yourself and loving who you want wasn’t always an option and came at a great price.
Joao Victor Lisboa – Brazilian Model / Photographer
This weekend I was pleasantly surprised to see Homotography featuring self-portraits of a friend of mine. Joao Victor Lisboa (not Lisbon as they printed) is a young, talented model/photographer based in Sao Paulo.
I can tell you that Joao Victor is every bit as handsome in person as he appears in his photos. He has a wicked smile and a sense of humor to match. You can see Joao Victor’s full portfolio online here, joaovictorlisboa.com.
Story originally via Homotography.
Another blog I respect and enjoy, Accidental Bear, has also put several of his self portraits on view.
My friend and local photographer, Patrick Lentz, posted photographs of Nick who lives up on the North Shore, on Friday. The 25 year old from Gloucester loves the camera and agreed to take a series of photographs with Patrick, several of which have a very nice Valentine’s Day theme.
I’ve included a few photos below but you can see more of Nick on Flickr. 
You can see more of Patrick’s photography here, www.PatrickLentz.com.
Frank Diaz, by Robert Mapplethorpe
Robert Mapplethorpe was a controversial photographer who’s homoerotic work created a national debate over public funding of art in the 1980s. Unfortunately, Mapplethorpe passed away in Boston in 1989 at the age of 42 due to complications from HIV/AIDS, but his work lives on.
In just a few weeks the LACMA and the Getty Museums will present complementary, simultaneous exhibitions of more than 3oo pieces of work entitled, The Perfect Medium.
For more information about these exhibits click on the links below:
LACMA – The Perfect Medium, March 20 – July 31
Getty Museum – The Perfect Medium, March 15 – July 31
First reported in The Advocate back in June 2013, Gay Voices on Huffington Post recently wrote an article about this bold photography project that brings celebrities together to pose as same-sex couples and families to combat homophobia and provide positive images of recognizable figures engaging in queer relationships.
The series, called “IMAGINARY COUPLES,” is the brainchild of French artist and photographer Olivier Ciappa and has been displayed in galleries and cities around the world from Paris to Lima. “IMAGINARY COUPLES” is tentatively scheduled to hit the United States this summer, possibly in Los Angeles.
Earlier this month I wrote about the Instagram account @intergaycial. This time I wanted to feature the Instagram account of a guy who lives in Boston and whom I’ve met socially, although I wouldn’t go so far as to suggest we know each other, @chrisnogiec.
The few times we’ve met, I’ve been struck by how friendly Chris is. I’m also impressed by the fact that he’s quite a smart guy; he has his PhD, is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist and is a Certified Sports Nutritionist. All that aside, he has an active Instagram account filled with pg-13 photos I’m sure my primarily gay and female readership will enjoy.
If you like what you see and you are on Instagram, check out @chrisnogiec and while you are on Instagram check out my own account, @bosguyblog.
Last March I wrote about a small Herb Ritts exhibit opening at the MFA. The exhibit which spans two rooms includes some of the photos included in the MFA’s 1996 retrospective “Herb Ritts: WORK”, which remains one of the museum’s most popular exhibitions to date. If you’ve not had a chance to stop by and see the exhibit at the MFA Boston, I’d suggest you hurry since it closes on Sunday, November 8, 2015.
Confessions of a Boy Toy recently shared a blog post recently entitled, Meet Justin & Nick: Instagram’s Sexiest Gay Couple. For about six months I have been one of the more than 170,000 people who follow their joint account on Instagram and without fail each of their posts bring a smile to my face.
As you can probably tell from the photo above and a few more below, these guys are easier on the eyes than sun glasses on a bright summer day. If you are not already, you too can follow this handsome Pittsburgh couple via Instagram at @justnick_pgh.

While tens of thousands have descended upon Provincetown for Independence Week parties and celebrations, a weekly tradition worth checking out (if only to take a break from all the revelries) is the Ptown Friday Gallery Walk.
While many think of the East End when they think of Provincetown’s art galleries, don’t overlook West End galleries like the AMP Gallery at 148 Commercial St. where Keith Krisa’s exhibit opened and will run through Wednesday, July 8th.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Ptown offers a little bit of something for everyone. While visiting try something you may not normally do. You might be surprised by how much you enjoy perusing Provincetown’s art galleries.

Adam seems to be confused about the weather. But he seems to pull off the ‘contemplative’ look convincingly enough in his Emporio Armani underwear. Watch out Max Emerson.
Mark your calendars, because one month from today on Friday, May 15th, the Boston Center for Adult Education (BCAE) will host their annual Sip The Rainbow celebration at their building in Bay Village at 122 Arlington Street.
This year’s theme is Provincetown. As a result, the party will include tasty treats and craft cocktails from some of Provincetown’s favorite chefs and mixologists. The evening will also showcase the sites of Provincetown as part of an ongoing photography exhibit at BCAE, entitled P-town to Boston: A Photo Exhibit ; the exhibit will run through September 30, 2015.
Please read: Tickets are $15 / person in advance or $20 on the day of the event. I couldn’t figure out how to purchase tickets online from the BCAE website, but you can purchase tickets over the phone during business hours if you call (617)649-1357.
