Gradually, with the fine art stature achieved by photography, we are begining to see the male body in unashamedly homoerotic contexts. Reed Massengill has gathered a bevy of beautiful young men, asked them to relax and enjoy the sensual pleaure of their youthful bodies, and recorded this activity with simple, casual, quiet elegance. No manipulation here for artsy looks (gimmicks, overly dramatic lighting, fetishism). These are simply beautiful men enjoying being beautiful. Books like this help us overcome the national double standard of "nudity is OK in advertising, TV, movies, but NEVER put it into art form". Humbug!

Reed Massengill's men are young. His extrovert models present themselves cheeky and playful, teasing us pleasurably with their beauty.

Sensational imagery- depicting every essence of manhood. This book features lots of gorgeous guys in natural poses.

They are all beautiful boys out of daily reach. But they are so real, just in front of you. There even contain some hardcore pictures, but presented in a different way. So get it.

Published by Bruno Gmunder Oversized. The next in a long line of fantastic black and white photo books by Bruno Gmunder featuring fresh-faced college-age guys. A nice addition to your coffeetable-book collection.
