nestled in nicely

A great photo from Morbidmind.

Rope bondage, candle wax, nipple piercings and a very colorful looking gag. I like the wax dripping onto the rope and covering her nipple rings. :)

dark wax

A lovely gag, some candles and wax and a wartenberg pinwheel from Dragon in London.

This is a great photo from Alex and his submissive pet.

This picture reminds me of a scene I did with my boy. We were doing either wax play or I was using the flame of a candle to burn her, but we were role playing and she was so in character that she blew out the candle before she could even think about what she was doing. Her look of horror after she'd realized what she'd done was spectacular. It was one of those 'Oh, shit' moments. I couldn't help laughing.

Candelabra

An absolutely gorgeous scene from Learning the Ropes. She makes a lovely candle holder and the rope bondage is wonderful. This is a great idea for a typical thursday night. :D

Pendulum

Ohhhh...

That's pretty wonderful. A pendulum of hot wax? It's like water torture... drip... drip... drip. Only much better.

We bought cookie cutters today and I immediately thought of using wax with them, dripping it into the cookie cutter on my boy's skin, then removing the cutter and leaving the hot wax in a cute shape.

Sadistic ideas are even more fun when they're also adorable and cute.

Wonderful image from Rope-topia. Check them out!

Beautiful wax

These are, without a doubt, the most beautiful wax-play photos I have ever seen. Three cheers for Hikari Kesho! My new favorite photographer. I'll just be in his photo gallery, drooling.

Mmmmm....

Someone's about to have a rough night

Another lovely from Fellows! Great situational bondage and expressive characters. None of them seem too happy about their predicament, but sometimes that's what I'm looking for. I love the whip framing him. Just luverly.

Fire suspension

Another fire play gem. Terrifying! I'm not sure how this works... or why they set the ropes on fire (besides the fact that it looks amazing). Gorgeous photo though! Photo from FrenchChris.

Fire play and accidents

A stunning picture of fire play from Pretty Kinky Things. However, this beautiful work of art comes with a warning.

This is what can happen when fire play goes wrong. Luckily for her, she survived and now she talks about safety in bdsm.

"The short story, I was bottoming in a fire scene with the man who was previously my Master. We've done scenes with fire cupping before but I had no idea he was doing it wrong. Rather than swab the cup with rubbing alcohol, he poured it in and lit it on fire. Because there was too much fuel, the cup wouldn't create suction on my back and it spilled. I was in subspace due to a previous scene and felt the alcohol pool under my breasts but I didn't think to say anything. Even though he wiped off my back with a towel, there was still too much fuel present and the unthinkable happened when the open flame ignited all the alcohol on my back and my side and my breasts. I'll never forget that night in the dungeon. He helped me heal and we both spoke at bdsm events when safety was the topic. Today I am a top and I have also become involved with The Phoenix Society, which is for burn survivors."

leashed by candlelight

I love the color and feel of this picture. The style is great.

heart brand

I've wanted to try proper branding for a long time now.

happy birthday

Somebody's bottom has become a birthday cake! Great idea, good photos and pretty cool aftermath too.

Wax

Wax and the scraping off of the wax.

Fire play

Some nice fire-play pictures. I've never seen pictures of it before, surprisingly. It's very showy, you'd think there would be more documentation of it.

My pet and I have tried fire-play at a demonstration. We both got a lick of fire put over our palms and then put out. As my pet said later, 'it feels warm and wet, like being licked by a dog.'

Not as exciting as I'd expected, but still beautiful, surprisingly peaceful and great possibilities for sensory play.

candle-holder

My wife holding a candle in her mouth. Be careful not to tip, or you'll get hot wax on your lips, heh.
