You know your leaf blower is working when you look down and aren’t wearing pants. A 67-year-old man from Scarsdale (well, we’re all a bit scarred now) was arrested after he was seen using an electric leaf blower with his twig and berries on public display. The New Yorker was doing his lawn work naked from the waist down when police were called to his residence.

Responding to a complaint of the offending view, cops spoke with the man, who responded that he was free to do as he wanted on his property. Just to show him how wrong he could be, the man was arrested and taken to local police station for processing. He’s now being charged with public lewdness.

The model is now facing charges of public lewdness though attorney accurately points out that the museum is full of nude art, and to call what the model and the photographer obscene is ridiculous.

The photographer, Zach Hyman (insert peals of laughter here), who directed the shoot, has been getting a fair amount attention around New York recently for his tendency to photograph nude models on subway.

Hyman insists that he’s inspired by nude paintings (what hymen wouldn’t be?), and that his photos are not pornographic.

Since the photographer is getting all of the press and none of the charges, sounds like he hit a marketing gold mine to me.
