It's a job that most photographers can only dream of. Naked pictures of women are among the most beautiful images a photographer can create, yet only a handful of people get to experience the exciting world of nude photography.

Whether for artistic merit, or for porn the allure of nudity has always fascinated most people. In fact, porn is one of the largest industries in the United States... and even the world! It's no wonder then, why people pay monthly fees and dedicate much time to surfing Internet erotica and contributing to one of the worlds largest money machines.

What most people don't know, however, is just how easy it is to take nude photos as a job. Many photographers assume that you must be on staff for a magazine like Playboy or Penthouse without any regard to the ever growing Internet community. They don't realize that each site often times leases or licenses their photos from photographers all around the world. It would be nearly impossible for each site to keep up on the demand of the public for nude photos, so they outsource. Consequently, photographers often make multiple sales from each image, and make a killing!

That's where the average Joe, like you and I, come in. There is quite a bit to know about this type of photography. As a photographer, you must be proficient in a few things.

Model Releases - Model releases grant usage rights and are an absolute necessity in the photography of people. They protect the model and photographer alike and set a standard guideline for what the photo may and may not be used for.

Obtaining Models - While there are hundreds of thousands of people willing to look at naked people, there are only a small percentage willing to pose. It might seem difficult to find such models, unless you know where to look.

Posing Models - A very important aspect of photography is posing. Making the model look natural, however, is quite the trick.

Legal Information - This subject has enough content for a whole book. For more information on this, please visit my blog for great resources on the sticky portion of this industry.

Naked pictures of women sell, there is no question about that. They are in high demand and fairly easy to shoot. Also, they are considerably more interesting than watching a bride jam a piece of wedding cake into her husbands face... unless she's naked.

How to Wire a Plasma TV

Most people would give up when it comes to wiring a plasma TV. Although it may seem like a very difficult thing to do, it’s not. These clearly defined steps will save you time and money. You will also learn a lot by doing it yourself. Make sure you have all the necessary components and accessories needed before you start wiring.

Steps

  • Place all the components, TV, speakers, etc. where you want them. Don't worry yet about how to wire them.
  • You may want to turn all equipment sideways on the shelves so you can get to the connections in the back.
  • Plug in all the power cords into a power strip, but don't turn on the strip until you are all done.
  • Learn to differentiate audio and video. Video connections are often yellow, audio connections are often Red and White, but newer systems can have more varieties. You'll need to make sure the color you are plugging in is the same for both ends of the cable.
  • Start wiring all the cables. You can see that all the cables and connections are clearly labeled and color-coded.
  • Use the concept of 'signal path' to connect the necessary OUT's to IN's. Cables are needed to give the signal a path to travel from one piece of equipment to another. OUT of the antenna, IN to the VCR. OUT of the DVD player, IN to the TV. OUT of the receiver, IN to the speakers etc.
  • Follow this guideline when hooking up equipment:
  • The wall (cable/antennae/satelite)
  • Things that send out signals (TiVo/cable box/set-top box)
  • Things that record (VCR/DVD Recorder/Computer)
  • Things that play only (VCR/DVD/Receiver)
  • Things that display (TV/Monitor)
  • Turn everything on. If necessary, switch channels and settings to match the labels on the connections you've just made. Enjoy!

  • Tips

    • Upgrade your audio & video cables; remember your picture is only as good as your cables can transmit. (Note, this is only true for analog signals. Digital signals either get there or don't. This can be visualized if you remember snow in TV pictures. Snow was a weak signal. With digital cable there is no snow but rather freezes when the signal gets weak)
    • To fully appreciate the high definition picture that your plasma television displays. Component cables (RGB) will give you a good picture. HDMI and DVI cables will provide much better picture quality. The HDMI cable will also transmit the audio signal.
    • Make sure all connections are nice and secure.
    • Make use of all the links and diagrams included.


    Warnings

    • Don't waste money buying super cheap cables, or super expensive cables. Moderately priced cables should be perfectly fine for most residential installations.
    • Make sure you never place plasma TV facing flat on the ground.
    • Do not install plasma TV near any heat source.
    • Don't leave any still images on a plasma screen for extended periods of time. This will cause the image to burn in.
    • Never clean your screen with abrasive cleansers. Go to an electronics store and purchase a screen cleaning kit.
    • Running the TV power cord inside the wall as shown in these pictures does not comply with building and fire codes. It isn't safe. [1]
