The Body Book: The Good Fight

I guess these anatomical landscapes are the pics that did it this time. Personally, I don't find the human body offensive or racy. I think it is beautiful and I say, with no modesty at all, that when I am photographing it, the human body is CERTAINLY beautiful!

I really like the term 'anatomical landscapes'. It is what I see when I look at the body - both as a photographer and as a fitness fanatic.
Is there anything, after all, unseemly about this photo of a beautiful pregnant woman and her doting husband? Not to these eyes. Not to many eyes, I imagine.As a photographer and as a gay male, I don't find anything EVER offensive about a man without his shirt...

Artistically speaking... do you know what you are looking at?What I love about the anatomical landscapes is how, if I do my job right, the viewer has to (sometimes) really LOOK to see what they are seeing. It requires some thought, some work. I like work.

In my life I have been asked to do this kind of shot (below) for a LOT of women. You should see them. They're beautiful.
Here we have another of my landscapes. When shooting the body it is ALL about shooting the shadow.
Maybe the man below is the latest photo to get me censored from Facebook. I don't see any more in this picture, though, than I do when I see peoples' photos of their weekends on Fire Island..
Do you see it?
It's a nice body but it is, after all, just a nice body. For me, this body shot is all about the face.
