Fred Goudon's new photography book is a stunning display of very attractive, relaxed sensual male nude models photographed in black and white. A lot of the models are photographed lying in bed alone, or in couples, and getting ready for bed, etc., thus establishing the theme of the book. Fred has a way of presenting his male models in a moody, relaxed way. These guys are not your standard run of the mill very posed male models. There is some frontal nudity but that's not really important here, because these models are very attractive even with half their clothes on. I really enjoyed this book because I feel there is so much more feeling and emotion in black and white photography than in color shots.

Fred Goudon was born in Cannes in the south of France back in 1965. He left Cannes in the 80's for Los Angeles to work as a press correspondent for magazines and newspapers. This is when he started photographing male models. He went back to France where he now lives, and continues to work as a fashion & commercial photographer. This was my first introduction to Fred Goudon's work and I really enjoyed this excellent edition of his work put out by Bruno Gmunder.
