Spencer Tunick - Sea of Hull, by Coach on Jul 9, 2016 21:11:33 GMT 1, This looks like it was a rather splendid event. All those that took part have my respect and admiration. The colours are just beautiful.

More than 3,000 people have stripped naked and been painted blue to mark Hull's City of Culture next year. Hull City Council said the art project, named Sea of Hull, was the largest of its kind ever to be staged in the UK. The work by my renowned photographer Spencer Tunick involved 3,200 participants from 20 countries posing in front of various landmarks. Commissioned by the Ferens Art Gallery, the images will be exhibited during 2017's UK City of Culture events.

His father was the camps photography teacher if I remember correctly. Great to see an artist do what they love and be able to make a fine living doing it.

The being nude part wouldn't bother me, it'd be getting the blue out of my hair!
