1) Can't remember where I first saw this one, I think it may be an edited image? It has a fantasy feel to it, besides the obvious bdsm aspect.
2) An image from the Kink "Cabo" series, image is lightly edited.
3) An older HOM image, with the woman being forced toward the board of nails/spikes.
#3 is not from HOM but from California Star's Punished_3. Originally an 8mm loop, later transferred to VHS and finally digitally remastered to DVD. I made a few screenshots from the 480x640 digital version and tried to improve the quality using AI de-noise and sharpening. The quality is still rather poor but AI can't do miracles considering the original was an 8mm movie ;)

A supplement to my previous post : the cover of the original California Star VHS cassette and 2 more pics from an other loop on the same tape (and DVD).

??? OK, the pic will fit the "miscellaneous" theme (in a very broad sense !), but WTF ??

In a similar spirit I would very much prefer these:

Thank you, you're technically correct.

But to be fair CalStar (California Star) and HOM may as well be the same company, as they both come under the auspices of Barbara Behr. Barbara Behr and John Blakemore had some fruitful years collaborating/marketing together.
I probably shouldn't, but I tend to lump them together.

And thanks for sharpening the images up!

Unfortunately, no. Pics are from a file marked "private/amateurs" thus I guess this is what it means. Very likely some kind of Pony Girls meeting/competition. Unidentified country, I can't read the signs.

As far as I know, Barbara Behr ran HOM but she also directed CalStar productions. HOM was sold to Lyndon Distributors at some time but that deal didn't include CalStar, so I guess there was some cooperation between HOM and CalStar but they were 2 separate companies. Anyway, it's history but I still enjoy watching Hom and CalStar productions :)

Maybe Ralphus can enlighten us on the link between HOM and CalStar?

Could not agree more about #1. A great outdoor setting with a beautiful GIMP, spoiled by keeping the shoes on.
