Calendar
Everyone's going Pavelka-crazy at the moment, whether it be for either of the reality show starring cousins! We've already seen a bit from DietTribe host Jessie Pavelka's 2011 calendar, and this morning photographer Bradford Rogne was nice enough to send over a few more to whet your appetite!
The publisher, 10%, will be releasing the calendar later this spring on amazon.com and some of your other favorite retailers.

Photographer Bradford Rogne (previous coverage) takes us behind-the-scenes of his calandar shoot with Jessie Pavelka (previous coverage) for the first 2011 calendar we've got on our radar!
Bradford had this to say about the shoot:
Jessie and I had been talking about shooting a calendar for a while now, so when the perfect opportunity presented itself, we jumped right in! 90% of the calendar was shot in one day, between my studio in downtown LA and a super slick house in the Hollywood Hills. It was a race for time, but we managed to get everything shot before sunset. More images that you won't see in the calendar coming soon!
Thanks, Bradford... we can't wait!

We told you about the 2010 Undergear Calendar yesterday... well, we just got this behind-the-scenes video as well, check it out!
We're only hours into the new year and you might be looking at the 2009 Kittens 'n Hats Calendar and thinking it is time for an upgrade, 2010 style. Here are ten suggestions for some incredibly sexy calendars featuring gorgeous men and the work of expert photographers!
Check out these three photos of Tom D, photographed by our friend John Gress. Check out more of Tom in John's latest calendar, Cool Down, including a shot of him in the shower with a well-placed towel!

Calendar season is ramping up, and one that we're excited about is a calendar from longtime Hunk du Jour favorite, photographer Sonny Tong. Check out these photos from his 2010 Dream Guys Calendar!
What you need to do next: Get your copy of the calendar from Amazon.com, check out our previous coverage of Sonny Tong's photography, and check out the STong PHotography web site.
With few weeks remaining in the year (and Christmas gift ideas squirming into our minds) let's cast our gaze to one of the things we can look forward to every year... guy pin-up calendar season!
Kicking off our coverage this year is the DC Cowboys WET 2009 Calendar. Shot on location on the nude beaches of St. Maarten, the cowboys are donating 50% of proceeds to the Paul Malerba Foundation, a memorial fund that contributes to HIV/AIDS non-profits. The $20 calendar also ships with a free "Making Of" DVD.
The DC Cowboys also appeared earlier this year in the Top 40 of America's Got Talent in the show's third season. The group does community work, holds performances, and (in case you want in on next year's photo shoot) is auditioning in early November.
The DC Cowboys 2009 WET Calendar is available on the DC Cowboys website.
Yeah... I love calendar season.
Okay, so we've all seen the Naked for a Cause calendar (and some of the finest buttocks we'll lay eyes on all year) but the $64,000 question is... Can you name the charity that it benefits? What cause it supports?
If the answer is no, that's totally OK... it's easy to get distracted with work like this, right?
The 2008 Naked for a Cause calendar benefits the McGrath Foundation. The organization was created by Jane McGrath (and husband, cricketer Glenn McGrath.) Their aim is to increase awareness of breast cancer, as well as work to provide more breast cancer nurses nationally in Australia.
When Jane was going through her second battle with breast cancer, she had access to one of these specialized nurses and learned what a great source of knowledge and support they can be for breast cancer patients. Since then, the foundation has made it one of their primary goals to increase the number of these nurses available.
I just received my copy and have to say -- Pedro's work is amazing and the sheer number of portraits in the book (it really is almost more of a poster book than a calendar) is great. This isn't your grandmother's 12-month calendar of kittens!
So -- go out and buy one of the calendars to support the McGrath Foundation! Click here to see more photos.

I got a lovely note tonight from a fellow associated with DC Strokes. The DC Strokes Rowing Club is stoking the fire again in what is already a hot calendar season. They've just launched a 2008-2009 fundraising calendar (yours for $20 on their website) featuring the photography of William Waybourn.
I love calendar season (always seems to get kicked off by the Dieux du Stade rugby calendar) but just wish that I had more walls to hang them on!
Our buddy jakesboy over at The Big Bad Blog is singing from the rooftops right now... the Ben Cohen 2008 Calendar has been revealed. That hairy chest that sets jakesboy's heart all a-flutter can hang in your home or office next year!
We heart jakesboy and his big bad blog, so go check out the rest of the photos!
During my MySpace travels, I kept running across individuals who had their pictures taken by Adam Bouska. Their pictures were AMAZING! I tracked down Mr. Bouska and realized that he is just as hot as some of his models. Today's post is really just a focus on his own personal hotness, but have no fear we will have to show some of his work in a future post. He was also sweet enough to answer a few questions for us!

Which do you prefer being in front of or behind the camera?
I prefer being behind the camera , it further allows me to express myself and gives me more control of the final product. Being in front isn't bad, but I find it to be more stressful.
What can we expect from this year's calendar and where is the best place to get it?
Both Amazon.com and 10percent.com both offer great prices on it.
Who are some of your favorites that you have taken pictures of and why?
I don't have a favorite, cliche as it sounds. Every person i've worked with has brought an individual and unique quality to the shoot. Every shoot is always so much different.
We love Brian Scott Allen's pictures what made you decide on putting him on your cover for the calendar?
The photo of him on the cover best summed up the concept behind the calendar.
What do you think makes a great picture?
Emotion; Allowing it to show through and to tell a story through an image.
Are you currently modeling and if so where can we see more pictures of you!
Not currently modeling , it was a great learning experience that developed into photography. Maybe some self portraits?
What up next for you?
Working on a 2009 calendar and always compiling works for a book. Hope to have my Greek series ready for a gallery show within a few months. So keep an eye out for that.
Be sure to check out Adam's website! It has great pictures, workout tips & more Adam!
You can also visit his MySpace page and consider hiring him to take your own photos!
John Andresen is a fantastic Norwegian photographer who has been bringing us the amazing American Ballet Theater Calendar for the past couple years. Did you also know that you can get three free calendars from johnandresen.com? They're in a downloadable PDF format for you to print out and hang up.
Put 'em on some high quality paper and it'll be the cheapest option for a sexy 2007 calendar! Many thanks to John for allowing me to repost his images... check out his website for even more of his spectacular work!
Another Sexy Calendar for you all. The Basic Training 2007 Calendar has workout tips along with the gratuitous eye candy!

Raoul Bova is a HOT Italian Actor that you might remember from the chick-flick Under the Tuscan Sun. He's also appeared as a guest star on the returning TV series "What About Brian" that kicks off its second season soon.
I love how his resume includes all of these Italian films... and then AVP: Alien vs. Predator is in there, sticking out from the fantastic Italian titles like a sore thumb. These shots all come from his 2000 Calendar, where he shows us that he is to sexy for clothes. Thanks, Raoul!

Is it too early for 2007 Calendars? The DC Cowboys don't think so! The dance troupe's benefit calendar will bring in some much needed funds for the troupe as well as the Whitman-Walker Clinic, whom they will split the proceeds with. It looks like it's going to be another hot calendar. Check out two more pics here, or order the calendar and special "Making Of" DVD at their web site.
