Images reminiscent of von Gloeden and his boys of Taormina in the 1900’s and Mel Roberts and his California boys of the 1960’s and 1970’s. The youth at the top reminds me of drinking mugs of daiquiris, margaritas and Bloody Marys while on vacation as a youth in Bermuda, the Bahamas and the isles of the Caribbean to get away from the bitter winter cold of DC.
