About NÆS 01:

Official title: “Restless Relentlessly”

Alternate title: “I got stuck in southwest Iceland because of a winter storm so I decided to take a holiday consisting of soaking in geothermal swimming pools, relaxing in cosy cafés and bingeing on a podcast about vikings, but then I just couldn’t resist trying to meet a few Icelandic guys and doing a naked photoshoot with them, so I did that as well.”

This issue focuses on three beautiful Icelandic men: Haukur G (Seltjarnarnes and Reykjavík) Sveinn S (Hafnarfjörður) and Guðjón B (Vatnsleysuströnd). With Haukur, Liam tried to recreate the magic of a photoshoot they did ten years earlier, only to be confronted with atrocious weather and a struggle to make Haukur feel as gorgeous as the man Liam saw before his lens. With Sveinn, Liam drank a lot of coffee and got intimidated by oodles of intelligence, artistic talent and the kindness exemplified by a love for cats. And with Guðjón, Liam melted as he gradually saw this specimen of physical strength and masculinity dissolve into a soft, gentle and tender spirit. And all three men caused Liam to drift into Viking-era fantasies that exposed a cold loneliness which he allowed these men to quell.

We also recommend ordering our companion publication, NÆS Ekstra 01, available separately or as part of the ‘bundle’. Inside you'll get to see hundreds of additional images from these very næs boys along with some further behind the scenes notes.
