Product Description
View--the monthly general interest magazine from the publishers of Stern--recently held an online competition for the best nude photographs. The winning images, chosen by Internet users as well as the editors of View, constitute the creme de la creme of amateur erotica. They convey a freshness and candor rarely seen in so-called professional work. With approaches ranging from everyday openness to stylized scenarios, these works resonate with vigor and originality. We, the readers, can share in these dreams and illusions, gazing directly at others' deepest desires. With captivating insight, this remarkable document provides insight into our collective fantasy lives.

3 out of 5 stars Fairly disappointing and not particularly unique   October 27, 2008
 0 out of 2 found this review helpful

I think there are a lot of books on the subject matter better than this one. The images are competent, but not particularly inspirational. What I'm a bit concerned about is that would-be nude photographers will take these images as types of work to aspire to, in other words, imitate them rather than find their own vision and creative self in doing the work. Also, this is supposed to be a book about photographers' own favorites. But photographers have various reasons for having a favorite, and it might not necessarily be because it's their 'best' work. Taking a look at the images is OK, but I wouldn't pay retail for a book that I looked through once, and then just left on my bookshelf (which is what I did).


5 out of 5 stars The best nude photography book in my collection   September 1, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Now, I must admit, my collection is not terribly extensive, it is actually just about ten books long, but this one is without a doubt, the best I've gotten so far. Classy, enjoyable. The only thing against it is that it has little variety. But still, I like it a lot.


3 out of 5 stars Mostly Forgettable   February 19, 2008

A little disappointing. There are some interesting photos but as was mentioned earlier in another user review the best is on the cover with a few others smattered throughout. Overall just "good" though, not great.


2 out of 5 stars Disappointing...   February 11, 2008
 7 out of 8 found this review helpful

I was disappointed with the images in this book; the cover image is by far the most interesting and the others just go downhill from here. I thought there was little creativity in the bulk of the poses or the technical composition of the final images. There ARE many photographic portrait masters out there and some EXCELLENT collections of artistic nudes; "My Nudes" simply fails to satisfy.


4 out of 5 stars Beautiful Girls. More Artistic Than Erotic.   February 10, 2008
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

Overall I'd say the photos are very "tasteful" and more artistic than erotic. They are made up of unique atypical angles, poses, and compositions. Being that the photos are all from different artists there is a huge variation in style, which is nice - hardly any pictures look alike.

Some nit-picks I have are:
*The models' names aren't given on the photo page, However, you can get them from the back of the book.
* A couple photos are spread across 2 pages that split the model on the seam in a bad way visually. This is a pet peave of mine - don't split the main focal point on a seam!
