Book Reviews of Natural Beauties
Book Review: art photography
Summary: 1 Stars
So the premise of this cute little book is the overlapping or merged ground between art and erotica. By and large the photos are a success. the woman and settings photographed are truly beautiful, sometimes as art, sometimes as erotica, and usually as both. Some of the women have what is best described as an unusual beauty, as do some of the backdrops. There are a phenomenal number of models from the eastern block. One of the memorable backdrops is of an eastern european or russian forest which has been leveled for timber, leaving a sea of stumps... I can recommend this book as a very nice addition to either a photography book collection or a collection devoted to an appreciation of the female form.Book Review: come on, people!
Summary: 3 Stars
Nice to see lack of make-up and natural outdoor settings. But come on, people, do you notice anything ELSE about these models? Other reviewers say, "Well they look similar to each other and the poses are similar." How about all look to be no older than 20, and MANY are specifically chosen to look PRE-pubescent! Most all, also (including on the DOMAI site, check it out) though certainly "beautiful" are so thin as to look emaciated. Talk about supporting the commercialized over-promoted, unhealthy, unrealistic ideal of "female beauty." Where are the women who are between 20 and say, 30, at least? Where are the women who are not bone-thin? Why carefully choose and pose and light so many young women (aptly called, chauvinistically called, GIRLS) who are extremely young-looking?! Oh, and shaved too, mostly. But nobody asked them to, surely. Yeah, right.
If you want to see really natural-looking women, there are other avenues - look around. Then try to tell me that the "girls" in this book are natural women. Exploited young models, maybe. Enticed by hopes of fame, I think.
Book Review: exquisite
Summary: 5 Stars
this books is awesome -- exactly the kind of photography I would like to become involved! I was hoping for the best, from the reviews, and I got what I asked for! The models are beautiful, non-glam, the settings are low-key. This is one of my favorite 'nude' books, ever owned!Book Review: how amazing to look
Summary: 5 Stars
I was shocked to see that amazon will allow the image of a naked woman on the cover of this book to be shown, I'm not complaining. This book is about showing models nude but it's nothing sexualy it's just a piece of art only mature adults should read this book.Book Review: what a book!
Summary: 4 Stars
This book is small measuring approximatly 7.5 inches by 5.5 inches. The photos are all shot in an outdoor setting and are extremely well done. This displays the "DOMAI-style" simple nudes with a balance of tastefulness and artfulness. There is no hardcore material in this book.
This is one of the best displays of nude photography that I have seen.
