Opening Pandora's Box by ~darkprophecy is an extremely interesting look at the masculine shape, presented in a way that we don't usually encounter. It is alarming, and starkly beautiful, and it challenges me to see masculinity in a new and more fragile way than I have in the past. This deviant also gets extra credit points for creating such an interesting piece of self-portraiture, which is much more challenging than simply modeling or photography.

when I look at this I see the stillness of the body, a little fearful of reaching to open the box ...the open hand the outstretchd fingers about to open something taboo. the ribcage elevated as he holds his breath in anticipation the nudity of this lean body shows vulnerability and a little anxiety of the moments before the box is opened by that hand...the hairs standing on end in the shadow. could be that he's waiting or looking for sustainance and perhaps it can be found in the pandora's box...or not...who knows? What a story....it could mean anything... can be interpreted in many ways. (Happy Birthday btw)
