5.0 out of 5 stars This book belongs in every major collection, September 24, 2008
This review is from: X-Posed (Hardcover)
Rosser's new book X-Posed redefines ART in art photography books. His photographs are simply beautiful and beautifully reproduced in this lucious book of stunning images. More than mere photographs of nude men, Rosser has captured that special something in each of his models that seems to reveal the man's inner being in a way that is denied many books in this genre.

Being able to take a good photograph is one thing. Being able to know what and when to capture an image that says as much about what's outside the frame as what's in it, is Art pure and simple. Rosser has added to the interest of his images by sometimes sharing with the viewer only a part of the model that simultaneously conveys strength, beauty and movement.

This is one of those books that will change the definition of the best of the best for years to come. I recommend getting it into your collection as soon as you can. Kudos to you Dylan. I can't wait for the next volume.

5.0 out of 5 stars X-Posed by Dylan Rosser, December 5, 2008
This review is from: X-Posed (Hardcover)
I'm following Dylan's work for the last two years, more or less. He always has a "pure" style, that could be an incongruence giving the theme, but his lines and lights are so fascinating that sometime you forget that there is a naked man on the pic since you find yourself wondering what there is behind... It's nice when he uses a setting, but even when it's simply a man, his body and that wonderful light, I can "feel" the story. Dylan Rosser is giving a great contribute to the modern male beauty.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent pics but some are overly airbrushed, September 24, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: X-Posed (Hardcover)
The images in the book are very high quality, with great use of shadows and backgrounds. All the men in the book are uniformly handsome and in great shape. My only reason for giving it a 4-star instead of a 5-star review is that some (not all) of the pictures are overly airbrushed to remove what were probably blemishes on the model's skin. However, doing so means a lot of the texture of a man's skin is also missing. Body hair (even peach fuzz) in some pics is missing and it gives the models an unnatural plastic or porcelain look (think Michael Jackson).

5.0 out of 5 stars ROSSER IS 5 STARS ALL THE WAY!!, December 6, 2008
This review is from: X-Posed (Hardcover)
Dylan Rosser's work is exciting, fascinating, bold and strong. He doesn't need to 'lean on' lots of props and background, like a fancy hotel room, for he captures your imagination and attention with minimal effort.

His models are fabulously sexy, from the elegant to the strong, yet they have a real-life quality to them, that does not ever allow you to think, this is some cheap airbrushed, soft porn job in a hotel. No, no way! But don't let me mislead you, the book is hot, RED HOT!

Rosser blasts us with a refreshing photographic force. He uses people who bring with them a sense of what is on at the clubs and in the dark alleyways of our lives, as their bare, manly flesh, sizzles on the page.

Rosser is a talent to contend with. This book is a tremendous achievement and I eagerly look forward to his future work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sensual, beautiful, powerful- amazing!, September 30, 2008
This review is from: X-Posed (Hardcover)
If you're a fan of the male body, erotic photography focusing on the male form, or fabulous coffee table books, you're certainly familiar with Dylan Rosser. One of the preeminent photographers of sensuousmale imagery, Rosser sits in a class of his own, whose work, if translated to words on paper, would speak volumes in just a few words.

His newest offering, X-Posed, is no exception. As you'd expect, the men featured within these pages are stunning, gorgeous, beautiful, sexy- everything you could want in a perfect model. What sets these photos apart from every other book of nude men however, is the brilliance of the man behind the lens. The shots are full of so much emotion, so much tension, relief, ecstasy, and masculinity, that they seem to come to life, each one telling a unique story.

There's no shortage of skin either, but unlike some other books in this genre, X-Posed is never skanky or trashy. Paging through this volume doesn't leave you feeling dirty, and you never wonder why these models took their clothes off. Rosser brings such an original, primal, and comfortable feeling to the male form that each man is perfection in his own self.

And as the reader, we're fortunate enough to get to share in their beauty.

X-Posed is an incredible volume of photographic artistry, featuring magnificent images of incredibly sexy men. Add it to your collection, or pick it up and keep it on hand for the next time you need a housewarming gift- I guarantee whoever receives it will get quite warm indeed...

5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful., September 24, 2008
By 
J. Vaughan (New Jersey, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: X-Posed (Hardcover)
Mr. Rosser has created a very powerful and moving book of the male form. He has chosen an excellent group of images that flow quite nicely from cover to cover. I feel his decisions of where to put the images, whether they are black and white or color, were chosen to compliment each other and keeping with the flow of the book.

His models are quite possibly some of the most spectacular specimens of the male form I have seen in years, and he has included all different types of models, I feel to make sure that he can meet what the public demands.

I am glad I own this book, and I would highly recommend X-Posed to anyone who could appreciate the male form, and Mr. Rosser's abilities to choose the most perfect images for his book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply beautiful and unexpected, December 6, 2008
This review is from: X-Posed (Hardcover)
Dylan Rosser has an unexpected eye for the nude male form. Beautiful shots, unabashed sensuality and then the unexpected. Who would have thought a muscular man would look exciting draped in the feminine wisp of scarlet chiffon? But, it's stunning. The models range from the wonderfully ordinary to the plucked and primmed. Great photography. A must have for the coffee table.
