Napoli Beach. By Serbian photographer Boogie.
Slice of lifeFor Napoli both can be true at the same time
Naples is a mystical experience that transcends time and space
Crossing the streets there has been the closest real life frogger experience ive ever had
and money between pockets
And cancer between friends. I think I got lung cancer and skin cancer just by looking at these photos…
Haha that was why I came in here.
I am really not sure either.. which is phenomenal
I thought it was from the 70s until the photo with the smartphone.
Probably taken with a vintage camera lens or film.
A lot of the 'feel' of an era is defined by the equipment used to record it.
Without the smartphones in 2 of the images it really would be impossible to tell
Napoli transcends space and time.
Rules of time, or rules in general, don't apply here.
Yes.
Came here to ask WHAT YEAR
Yeah. Same thought 😄
Sponsored by Marlboro
Good pics
Philip Moris you mean…
Philip Morris
Thank you, Philip Morris
Thank you, brother!
All people in the photos are 23 years old.
Some are living on the edge though.
It's photographing life.
Interesting that (I assume) you have been so used to zero images with cigarettes, you started to forget just how many people enjoy them.
Not defending them, but it's a funny observation. Makes sense with American culture around smoking (I assume cos.. marlboro)
I don‘t know why you‘re getting downvoted because I think that‘s a valid point.
I was never much of a photo guy, but these are phenomenal. So lively, so pure and overall just very real. He doesn't just capture people, he captures their story. I think I get it now :)
You should check out rest of his books, he's very good.
I think you may also enjoy Dougie Wallace's STAGS HENS & BUNNIES, A BLACKPOOL STORY & HARRODSBURG PHOTOS
You were right. Those are so good!
Yeah, the other sets on his website are also worth checking out.
And the photos by Martin Parr, "The Last Resort" is amazing
Lmao I came down here to recommend him too. His newer stuff from soho and Thailand is also very good

Also, since I'm more of a twitter guy, his twitter account is @boogiebelgrade. He posts many nice photos there.
What's up with that nazi spoon?
I found it: https://www.reddit.com/r/europe/s/O8AwUvNPgW
5 years ago. Scrolled for 5 minutes before i realised we can search in a profile.
He posted the Nazi spoon!
nazi spoon?
I have always been fascinated by the love that southern Italians have for sunbathing to the point of having the same color of sanguinaccio napoletano.
Barry with a tan
TIL Napoli is Italian Blackpool
I was going to say the Italian Ocean City, Maryland. These look like my kind of people.

Old guy in picture 4 should not be in the sun
Looks unfortunately like melanoma on the cheek, hope he gets it checked out.
That's why he has a hat
Older women with silver hair smoking a cigarette is an aesthetic
amen 🙏
I got skin cancer looking at the photos.
Don't forget the STDs and the loung cancer
Old man in picture 4 legit has a melanoma.
Could be Kosturica movie
Or Kaurismäki, you also can't tell from which decades are these supposed to be
Sorrentino
Woman in pic 14 looks as if she's leading the pack there.
Why not just "the last pic"? You made me count all the way to the end, dammit!
Well thats what he wanted you to do hahaha
I can hear her raspy voice in my head
I had the same vibe.
Wasn’t she in Sons of Anarchy?
You mean the 21 year old?
Only the kids are not smoking, they don’t fit in
Guess we know where Italy keeps its chavs
Going on vacation to Italy and seeing the pastrami skin of the old guys made me obsessed with putting sunscreen on my face every single day. I live in Luxembourg and it rains 90% of the time and I still am afraid of ending up looking like them.
Very common in Portugal, especially in the South where lots of people worked in agriculture. I know it's not possible but they seem to have a permanent tan as well
Same in Herzegovina, people who work in the field or as stonemasons are reddish/brown the whole year
I live in California, I've seen way too many surfers not putting on any sunscreen before going out in the water. The amount of sun damage on these surfer's faces is shocking. Some of the people I've seen look like they're in their 70s by the time they're 50.
Don't forget the neck and hands! I have Vitligo so it's a must for me...
I'm Aussie and take care of my skin. It's not uncommon to get a ‘joking’ remark at the beach or on a nice summer's day that I look ‘pasty’ or ‘unhealthy’ by someone who's covered in wrinkles, black and white sunspots, cancer scars and are probably 10 or 20 years younger than I think they are. I put it down to projection and internalised regret.
Don't forget your hat! A good one carries a lot of the weight, really.
All I could think looking at these pictures is that I should avoid the sun at all costs
I love Naples

Is it just photos or irl there are so much smokers?
Despite every attempt from the government to end the addiction to smoking, a disturbing amount of people keep smoking. I think most people nowadays start because it looks cool and never stop for the same reason.
I agree, but let's not forget that a lot of people quit smoking after the 2003 ban inside public venues.
Most of them simply kept smoking outside, the only real solution to tobacco addiction would be to stop selling any tobacco product to people born before 2007, to let only vending machines sell cigarettes after you insert you ID card and to completely ban smoking outside of private property.
Prohibitionism always worked fine no?
Especially in countries where organised crime is prominent
If they want to smoke, let them smoke. There is a weird obsession with dictating peoples lives these years.
Problem is, smoking pollutes the environment and passively damages the health of other people, not to mention that leaving people get addicted to tobacco while levying taxes on it it's predatory. If smokers that already started smoking want to do it they can in the freedom of their homes. Let the other people live without this anvil on society.
Thank you for your answer, we had a lot of smokers, but after some laws it became much less popular, especially in younger generations.
You are extremely wrong if you think people do drugs like nicotine just to look cool and don't stop for the same reason.
That is the most hilarious take on nicotine I've heard in my life. This is like people saying 'people become trans to try be cool/liked by their friends.'
Very shallow
Couldn't possibly be because it's relaxing.
every attempt from the government
Smoking is still dirt cheap in Italy
Lol. Or course there are loads of smokers.
Newsflash. People like drugs.
That old guy in the second to last picture has a damn good time. Or it's just his daughter and granddaughter, but I doubt it 😎
this has just made me want to not go to napoli beach. so, i suppose that means the photos are great. well done photographer
Take that americans! European class and culture
Amazing pics
what year is this
Being Naples it could be. Anywhere between 1965 and yesterday. Google says 2023
Do you have a moment to talk about our Lord and Saviour, Skin Cancer ?
And His son, Lung Cancer!
Best ad for sunscreen
So, Napoli Beach is the Daytona Beach of Europe? Legitimately asking
It looks like The Sopranos.
That one dude looks exactly like Paulie
Wow👏
Martin Parr?
I love how striking the use of flash in these photos looks. Its a nice change.
It's like an anti-advert.
Love it! Real, unedited ppl
I use mostly my phone.
Why... Would he credit the photographer.. in the title.... Like that....If... He was... The photographer?
the last one is amazing lol
Swimshorts in the first pic is doing Gods work.
Gorgeous photos.
scenes from Elena Ferrante
The girl in the second picture looks line Margaret Qualley.
Someone should wake the 13th guy up before he gets second degree burns.
Girl from the right in pic 3 gives such Liv Tyler vibes :))
They might be related. Liv Tyler is half southern italian.
Americans be like:
She is about as much italian as she is polish, german, english and african-american. You now have access to /r/confidentlyincorrect , u/Confident_Access6498!
Her fathers name is Tallarico, typical polish name right? LOL.
So what? You claimed Liv Tyler being half southern italian. That's saying either her mom or her dad are from Italia, which they are not.
Steven T. was born in Manhattan, his dad, Victor A. Tallarico (May 14, 1916 – September 10, 2011), a classical musician and pianist who taught music at Cardinal Spellman High School in the Bronx, actually being of italian and german descent. His mother, Susan Ray (née Blancha; June 2, 1925 – July 4, 2008), a secretary, was of Polish, English and African-American ancestry. He has claimed on a number of occasions that his maternal grandfather was Ukrainian, and changed his surname from "Czarnyszewicz" (from Polish: czarny, lit. 'black') to "Blancha" (possibly from French: blanche, lit. 'white'). Genealogist Megan Smolenyak established that Steven Tyler's grandfather was Polish, born Felix Czarnyszewicz in 1892 in Klichaw, in today's Belarus. In 1914 he emigrated to the US and changed his surname to Blancha. There he married Bessie Elliott, with whom he had four children, including Steven's mother Susan.
Livs mother Bebe Buell was born in Portsmouth, Virginia, the daughter of Dorothea (Brown) Johnson and Harold Lloyd Buell, a U.S. Navy officer and World War II veteran. As her father was not at home at the time of Buell's birth, her mother waited until he got back before naming her daughter. The nurses in the hospital took to calling her "Baby Buell," which is where her nickname of "Bebe" originated. She is of German descent.
I mean, you could have looked that up on your own before commenting, maybe you'll refrain in future from claiming rumors as facts.
Liv tyler would be literally called Liv Tallarico if not for her fathers stage name LOL and everyone would be referring to her has an italo-american. Stop pretending dude you already lost
Yeah, like literally everyone is referring to Liv Rundgren Tyler as swedish-american or what. She decided to take his stage name rather than his real name, wonder why though? And her bloodline is even more german than italian, if anything. But those are facts, which obviously have nothing to do with you. You're a case lost, loudmouth.
Great photos that need to get posted elsewhere as well! Awesome!
The child in photo#8 looks terrified
If you like these pictures there’s a book called “The last days of summer” by Akila Berjaoui. Pretty much the same vibe although more nudity.
Napoli beach 🤝 Ada Ciganlija
How to achieve this photo effect?
Is this an anti skin cancer add?
i really wanna be there soon
Nápoles, la ciudad más naca de toda Europa 🥰
This pictures make me so uncomfortable
Tutto normale
absolutely incredible photos!
Balkanoid
At least 4 different cancers in those photos.
Dang gypsies livin the life eh
Napoli is what would it be if the 60s was a place.
help me out here. didnt italy ban smoking on beaches? i think i read that somewhere
I don’t think so. I believe it is left to local administrations to regulate it. Regions, comune or even a beach lido can decide to ban it or not, as far as I know, that’s why rules change from a place to another.
Who cares about the laws lol, people even smoke in schools
🌋🌋
It's Sopranos on holiday!
This an anti tourist campaign? Working for me !
Just Italians doing Italian things 🤣🤣
why so many smokers holy shit
Chakotay has found a retirement place
iconic!
Howso?
Reminds me of Nan Goldin
He likes to flash
Bruce Gilden inspired
See Naples and die?
What happened to the stomach of the girl to the right in the third picture..?
Got hidden by a skirt.
The smell of melanoma is huge in these pictures
I assure you most of these guys have olive skin and they use the cream maybe once at the beginning of , and not even the strong ones, before going creamless the whole summer and getting a really dark skin complexion
The 5th one goes hard af
Classy!
What is that metal (?) thing poking out of that guy's stomach in picture 12?
That's a scar.. Most likely from having his appendix removed, or where he was shot once..
Yikes... it just looks shiny and strange.
Someone ate too much pizza
Picture 8 the criminal is holding what seems to be an iPhone. So this must be recent ahah
Slide 13, girl on the right. What’s her phone number
Talk about a suntan and a half
Looks about right
Fat
Embarassing...
Those are really great but the editing is a bit unfitting for some of them, too dark.
Now that’s fucking Italian
next to that absolute unit of bearded wife there was a very unhappy husband
Madonna, che civiltà in declino che siamo...
Trashy people, awesome pics
I don't remember seeing worse pictures in my life, I have to be honest. The editing and the people, I almost threw up.
Guy loves the FAT.
Naked Italians.
This trash-strewn piece of rock looks soooo uncomfortable, the discrepancy between italian "beaches" and the rest of the country is shocking. One of the nicest places to live and rest, but those beaches are terrible compared with soft, warm sand of Atlantic or Baltic Sea
Not a single fit person there…
Yes, cuz real people exist lol
Its 2024, and now non obese people don't exist.
Italian women sure do look like men
They are not masculine at all, this is how women look in real life. The very feminine, fair-skinned women we see on TV are rare in real life.
True, but Southern Italian women are quite known for being less ‘polished’ than their Northern counterparts.
You are from Croatia so I get why you are saying that.
Every stereotype I’ve ever had about Serbia shown.
But this is Italy.
Touché, absolutely wrecked reading that title.
Not sure if it is 2024 or 1974
