"BEWARE!
If you can't handle enormous numbers of gorgeous, sexy, seductively-portrayed women, exposed perfectly in all lighting situations, and professionally-captured at the peak of their provocative moment of splendor -- than this is NOT the site for you.

The first time I checked out caliber68's photostream, I realized instantly that he's one of a very few that have the talent to capture and encapsulate all that is wonderous about the female form. Simply put, I believe he's set the bar. There are other things in his stream as well, but for me -- it's the girls.

It's a pleasure to recommend his site to true aficionados of babes "the way you like 'em!" Thanks for sharing your wonderful photoset!!

I've been impressed by Calibre68 pictures since the very first time I saw his pictures. Not only he has crispy sharp, well light balanced, large size pictures, which are rare in this genre in Flickr, the models seem to be lovely, lively, and inviting to viewers. He has that ability to capture the mood and energy of the models, as if they were right in front of you in person.

Definitely check out the sets of "2006 Hot Import Nights (2006) L.A." as well as "Hot Import Nights - Los Angeles" to see how beauty and beast can be combined so deliciously. Truly coined the title "!HOT! Promotional Models"

Calibre68 has graciously accepted my Q&A on some of his tricks and tips to produce such magnificent body of work...

!HOT! PM: You have all the gorgeous models, how do you approach them usually?
Calibre68: I just smile, ask if I can take their picture and that's it. Most of the models are used to having their pictures taken so it isn't much of a problem. A trick that I use at times is to be near the heavy duty professionals when they ask the models to pose. I am not at that caliber and I just take pictures as a hobby.

!HOT! PM: Their poses are so natural; do you or how do you instruct the model to pose?
Calibre68: Most of the posing is by the models themselves. The women who have been in front of the camera for a while know how to position themselves into sexy poses.

!HOT! PM: You have many many great shots, how do you decide when to click the shutter, and what calculation does it go through your mind at the point?
Calibre68: Sometimes it is the luck of the draw. I tend to get some great pictures by accident. What I found out by experience is that it is better to take more photos than less. This is extremely helpful because you never know when that gem of a shot may show up. Also, it is better to have more shots so that you are guaranteed pictures of models that are not blinking and have their eyes closed.

!HOT! PM: Any words of advice for promotional model photographers?
Calibre68: It definitely helps if you have a digital SLR. In my last outing at Hot Import Nights, the models tend to pose for you and look directly into your lens if you got a semi decent rig. I think they notice the flash setups and how it shines its focusing beam that makes them take notice.

Calibre68: Oh one more thing about take pix at events is to always move around the venues. If you stay in one place you are bound to miss something going down at another part of the event. But then again if you "feel" like the vibe is good at one location, just stick around for a little while to see how things unfold.

But most importantly is to constantly snap away for that one shot."
