| Review:
Galitsin
News?
You
mean
this
site
is
like
those
novelty
news
channels
where
the
anchors
take
off
their
clothes
while
they
read
the
headlines? Not
quite.
In
fact
this
site
is
pretty
much
a
carbon
copy
of
all
the
other
erotic
nude
photography
sites
coming
out
of
Europe
(and
in
particular
Russia).
You
know
the
set-up.
They
have
identical
layouts,
even
down
to
the
vapid
mottos
(Hegre:
"Seize
your
dreams",
Galitsin:
"The
fire
from
within"),
the
magazine-cover
style
pics
they
use
to
introduce
the
galleries
and
the
high-falutin'
text
they
just
love
to
lather
on.
We
really
groove
to
the
stuff
they
write.
Here's
just
a
sample
from
Galitsin
News:
"Galitsin
distinguishes
miraculous
efficiency
that
together
with
professional
modern
gear
let
him
conquer
all
the
heights
of
art."
"These
captivating
models,
from
the
splendid
city
of
Volgograd
in
the
South
of
Russia
with
nations
mixing
having
done
its
best
with
their
features,
the
talent
of
the
real
Master--all
this
make
the
works
flourish
with
the
unique
scent
of
refinement
that
the
true
judges
honour
most
of
all." Uh-huh. Anyway,
saying
Galitsin
News
is a
copy
of
the
other
erotic
nude
sites
(MET
Art,
Hegre,
Vulis,
etc.,
etc.)
might
not
be
fair.
The
thing
is,
we
used
to
have
a
review
of
the
first
version
of
this
site
a
few
years
ago
back
when
it
was
Galitsin
Archives
and
he
was
working
with
Hegre's
people.
They
had
a
falling
out
and
Galitsin
was
offline
for
a
while
before
he
came
back
with
Galitsin
News
(the
old
Galitsin
Archives
link
just
redirected
to
Hegre's
site;
why
they
called
this
site
"News"
is a
mystery
to
us).
Now
partly
because
we
don't
want
to
bore
you
with
the
politics
of
all
this
and
partly
because
we're
not
sure
anyone
has
the
story
straight,
we'll
just
say
that
the
one
thing
you
should
know
about
most
of
these
European
photographers
and
their
sites
is
that
they
really
fucking
hate
each
other.
This
may
be
because
they
are
all
so
similar
and
they
all
think
they're
stealing.
Which
explains
why
Galitsin's
About
page
spends
so
much
time
talking
about
being
the
first
and
how
everyone
else
is
just
copying
him. We're
not
going
to
take
sides.
We
think
Galitsin
is a
great
photographer
and
that's
all
we'll
say
about
that.
In
terms
of
the
kind
of
work
he
does,
it's
mostly
solo
girl
posing
with
a
bit
of
girl-girl
thrown
in.
Occasionally
a
guy
gets
involved,
but
there's
no
cock
(like
so).
Here's
a
"pic
of
the
day"
for
a
preview: 
The
staging
and
setting
didn't
seem
to
be
as
dramatic
as
it
did
on
the
old
Galitsin
Archives
site
(remember
all
that
stuff
about
"angels"?).
His
models
are
the
usual
bunch
of
young
cuties
you've
come
to
expect
from
this
part
of
the
world.
It's
such
a
fucking
relief
not
to
see
teens
covered
in
piercings
and
tattoos,
like
the
skanks
in the
reality
porn
sites.
On
the
other
hand
it
would
be
nice
if
some
of
these
guys
would
pay
their
models
enough
to
buy
them
a
square
meal
now
and
then.
These
girls
are
way
too
thin. Enough
blather,
on
to
the
pros
and
cons. Pros:
another
totally
transparent
site
tour
that
lets
you
see
all
of
what
you're
getting.
The
only
thing
you
can't
do
is
actually
enter
the
galleries.
The
shitty
thing
about
these
tours
though
is
that
there
is
no
real
"members
area",
so
even
when
you're
logged
in
you
still
get
all
the
come-ons
to
join.
The
site
is
also
well
stocked
with
content.
Over
63,000
images
and
110
movies
when
we
visited,
with
three
updates
daily
(a
new
video
every
five
days).
The
"Comrades"
area
also
has
a
nice
little
selection
of
work
from
friendly
sites,
like
Ron
Harris,
Explicite,
and
Model
Flats. Cons:
the
pics
are
excellent,
but
full
size
(800x1200,
they
also
come
in
"half-size"
which
is
400x600)
isn't
huge.
Galitsin
doesn't
have
much
of a
personal
presence
(no
bio,
feedback,
forums,
etc.).
The
video
quality
with
the
basic
one-month
membership
isn't
great
(only
225
kb/s
playback),
features
canned
music
(OK,
that's
typical
of
these
photography
sites),
and
for
some
reason
they
come
with
a
really
long
lead-in
of a
statuette
of a
bear
playing
an
accordion
(it's
a
little-known
fact
that
most
bears
in
Russia
know
how
to
play
the
accordion). Another
negative
is
the
two-tiered
membership
system.
In
order
to
get
the
"fullscreen"
movies
you
have
to
join
for
three
months.
And
that
isn't
a
deal
because
if
you'll
notice
a
three-month
membership
actually
costs
more
than
three
one-month
memberships!
We
don't
know
who
dreamed
that
one
up.
Our
personal
advice
would
be
to
stick
with
the
one-month
membership.
Of
course
the
high-res
videos
are
better
("No
one
website
in
Internet
can
render
such
a
service!"),
but
you'd
have
to
be a
real
fan
to
shell
out
so much
extra
cash
just
for
an
improvement
in
the
video
quality
when
this
really
isn't
a
video
site. No
question
this
is a
solid,
professional
package,
and
it's
pretty
much
a
must
for
anyone
interested
in
European
erotic
nudes.
You'll
find
a
lot
here
to
add
to
your
collection.
We
just
didn't
think
the
movies
were
worth
that
much
extra. |
