Great Little Book 5 out of 5 stars.
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

Although some may be turned off by the cartoon-ish type drawnings, they are actually quite practical... leaving you to get the pose right for the particular model and not 'copying' the authors pic.
Mainly the book is simple, to the point, and gives some great advice on topics which often go unnoticed. Like how to position hands, feet..etc.
If you shoot models or portraits this a nice handy little book to throw in your bag. Great to let the model browse through too... just watch they don't steal it.

Editorial Review:

This is the famous posing guide that is carried in 1,000's of camera bags all over the World. The Pink Pocket Poser became a classic when the original version was released in 1987. It has now been revised and updated to this new style to become one of the most useful tools that you can have if you work with glamour models. It is packed full of the rules of glamour posing and contains everything you need to know about posing your models. The little cartoon drawings make the book so easy to follow that even the most complicated poses are simple for you and your model to understand. Pages of practical hints, tips, rules and ideas. Numerous useful tips to help with your own work. Posing for men's magazines. A selection of 'Page 3' poses for you to copy. Over 150 ready-to-use poses and ideas. 'I loaned my first Pink Poser to a friend. I never saw it again. The second one was stolen by a model. My third is now attached to my camera bag with a piece of string.' John S Bowden (USA).

Editorial Review:

A front-row seat for the hottest show in town–Broadway’s finest strip down for a good cause.

This is your ticket behind the scenes to see Broadway’s sexiest performers displaying some of their greatest assets. Gorgeous stage idols from the biggest shows strut their stuff as you’ve never seen them before. It’s burlesque naughtiness lit up by the razzle-dazzle of the Great White Way. They tease, they titillate, they tantalize. And boy, do they deliver the goods. By the end of each number they’re wearing little more than a smile. But at the end of the show comes the real payoff; hundreds of thousands of dollars have been raised for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, the theatre community’s unique fundraising and grantmaking organization.

Backstage Pass peeks behind the curtain at the famous event called Broadway Bares– conceived by Tony Award®—winning director and choreographer Jerry Mitchell–which sets New York City ablaze each summer. The hottest dancers in show business come together for this one-night-only sold-out “Strip-A-Thon”–a fundraising, eye-popping spectacle the likes of which Gypsy Rose Lee could never have dreamed. Now for the first time this luxurious keepsake album brings together all the sizzling posters, scintillating backstage shots, and scorching on-stage photographs from the past seventeen years of Broadway Bares. Sit back and enjoy the show.

A Photographic Collaboration: Kingdome 19 Embellishes Von Berg 5 out of 5 stars.
6 of 6 people found this review helpful.

UNIVERSAL is a successful collaborative effort between Kingdome 19 (the well known carpenter/graphic artist turned photographer) and Henning von Berg (an equally well known architectural engineer turned photographer), both artists from Germany and both highly respected in Europe and now the USA. Their subject matter is the male nude and their similarities are their focus on non-studio settings and on their brave depiction of the aroused male.

From von Berg's vast collection of photographs, Kingdome 19 re-worked many in his developing room, adding graphic details, works, markings, and other artistic elements, enhancing von Berg's sometimes static works immensely. But the book also shares many of Kingdome 19's own photographs, all presented in sepia toning, all with some degree of handcrafted manipulation to enhance the artistic aspect of the finished product, and all sensually beautiful in the casual manner in which he shares his models' willingness to be totally free with their posing.

As the art world (since Mapplethorpe) has matured more and more to the point that male nudity, and even aroused male images, is becoming more accepted. Certainly at the top of the list of brave photographers is the always exciting work of Kingdome 19. This book contains nearly 150 images that are strong and challenging. Another fine book from Bruno Gmunder Verlag GmbH. Grady Harp, January 07

Editorial Review:

Exciting shots of striking-looking, well-hung, powerful men, artistically posed in just the right light. Painstaking lab processing gives these artists' photographs an unusually graphic look, literally confronting us with naked reality. In solo portraits, often surreal and classically elegant, we see dream bodies which set our own desires burning. Brim-full of the bare hard facts, coming direct from our wildest fantasies.

Well done and worth having 4 out of 5 stars.
4 of 4 people found this review helpful.

If you grew up in the 70's like I did and you were trying to project an image of cool and hip you read Playboy. Besides the great photography there were well written articles on politics and mens lifestyle issues that just weren't available anywhere else. And the special treat of having a glimpse of a favorite celeb partially nude made reading the articles less important for that particular issue and almost guaranteed it would become a collectable item. Many of the photos are mild to say the least by today's standards but still demonstrate the high quality photography that I believe always set Playboy apart from the rest.

This book is full of the same high quality images anyone who has followed the magazine would expect to see and some of us will even remember when some of the models first appeared. I was hoping to see a few more of my favorites, but hey there's always the next volume and as long as Mr. Hefner's name is on the masthead we'll have to trust him to pick the subjects and I'm very comfortable with that. If you ever liked Playboy and/or ever collected any of their compilation volumes this one is surely worth having.

Editorial Review:

From Marilyn Monroe to Cindy Crawford, Linda Evans to Farrah Fawcett, Playboy has celebrated the sensuality (and even launched a few careers) of celebrities for more than fifty years. Here, in all their glory, are over 150 breathtaking photographs of the magazine's most famous heavenly bodies. Celebrity models such as Naomi Campbell and Stephanie Seymour, Playmates Jenny McCarthy and Pamela Anderson, rockers such as Debbie Harry, and many more reveal all posing for equally renowned photographers such as Herb Ritts and David LaChapelle. With an introduction by Hugh Hefner himself and an afterword by Gary Cole, the magazine's director of photography for the past 30 years, this definitive collection from Playboy is a potent portfolio of celebrity nudes.

"I was amazed" 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

I enjoy the coffee table type of book mainly due to their large size and clarity of images. I have a collection of books dealing with Male Photography. This book is not the usual type of book that I would think of buying. But, I decided to take a look at it, you never know in life if you don't take a moment to look at something different. Well, much to my surprise I was really blown away by both the photography and models, an exquisite blend of eroticism and beauty. I think I have been converted and from now on will look for more of Van Darkholmes books. Kudos to him!

Editorial Review:

Men in difficult straits - on purpose and freely chosen. This is a collection of photographs of artfully arranged bonds - namely Shibari, the Japanese style of bondage - that shows enthusiasts in their favourite positions: defenceless, at someone else's mercy and left alone in their joyful pain.

BUTT-tastic! 5 out of 5 stars.
10 of 11 people found this review helpful.

I love the magazine and I'm absolutely in love with this book! I accidentally ran across Butt a couple of years ago while doing some research on one of my favorite creatures alive: Wolfgang Tillmans (who has quite a contribution to the magazine as well as this book, specifically). The magazine is funny, candid, refreshing, gorgeously-sleazy in a honest/tounge-(and whatever else)-in-cheek sort of way, and highly intelligent to boot. This book is all of that bounded into one Butt. It is one giant amazing Buttfest.

It's just porn ... 1 out of 5 stars.
10 of 63 people found this review helpful.

I flipped through this trash at American Apparel. It's just a new, sort of elitist way of repackaging porn. It's just as destructive as regular porn. More execs trying to sell us on what is attractive and what is not; i.e., young, muscled, endowed, rich = attractive and worthy of the gay "community's" attention, anything else = not.

You all can give this review "unhelpful" votes, all you want. Truth be told, gays wouldn't care about this magazine if it did not feature handsome, young white men. Look at all the attention given to CNN's Thomas Roberts.

Editorial Review:

The best of the first 5 years of BUTT: Adventures in 21st century gay subculture Since its first legendary issue in 2001, international quarterly magazine BUTT has been bringing together groups of young alternative gay guys all around the world, connecting fashion, sex, and art with a good sense of irony.

Elegance In Natural Beauty 5 out of 5 stars.
3 of 7 people found this review helpful.

These pictures capture some of the grace and elegance that a woman can possess without a heavy lude or crude weight attached to them. Beauty can be so subjective. What one sees and appreciates may not be shared by some one else. When broken down, there is a playful quallity to these shots. They are soft and seductive and yet they never lose the charactor of the subject. Any picture that can move you past the surface of what you are seeing and bring you into the moment shared with the one that you are viewing, takes talent and can be concidered Art.

The best light 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 7 people found this review helpful.

Magnific book, the use of the light and the dark is very proffesional

Editorial Review:

After the astounding success of Couples and Men, teNeues introduces a third collection of beautifully composed, highly erotic images of the female form from acclaimed photographer Stefan May. Here are pictures that reveal the beauty, sensuality and grace of women's bodies. With the expert eye that made his previous books so extraordinary, Stefan May offers a collection of stunning black and white photographs that is second to none.
