Summary: There's No Atmosphere Here!!
Review: Most of these guys photographed in this fourth book of the Edition Euros Series look like they would rather be somewhere else. No one is playing with the camera or showing much emotion. They all seem to be staring off at another planet, trying desperately to avoid contact with the camera. Now don't get me wrong these are beautiful photos of very handsome and beautiful looking guys, both in facial features and body, but the lack of eye contact just left me cold. As for the commentary at the end of the book, it meant nothing to me. I can only say if you're a collector of this series you will definitely want this book, but I won't be revisiting this one as much as the other photographer's works!

Summary: totally derivative
Review: The guys are good-looking in a generic sort of way, and the photography is perfectly adequate (which, as Dwight MacDonald once pointed out, usually means inadequate), but there's not a smidgen of originality in the whole production. It's all taken right out of Mapplethorpe, Bruce Weber and Herb Ritts. In fact, a couple of the shots are such obvious copies of Weber's work that Weber ought to be suing this guy (if he cared to stoop). Even if you aren't bothered by lack of originality and are just looking for a bit of a turn-on, you won't find much in that department either. Comes complete with a pretentious and near-illiterate commentary at the end ("the answer still alludes us"). Indeed.

Review: Warning: Don't Judge A Book By Its Cover - you may be disappointed with the results. While most of the photographs show healthy, strapping young men, many of the poses look as though his inspiration came from one of his contemporaries, namely Underhill... its unfortunate seeing that this is the same dude who does the photoshoots for GYM and BURN magazine... let the buyer beware!
