High Density, High Quality, High Value

There is one mysterious thing about the work of Jock Sturges: 99% of his pictures are all very artistic and impressing. They are from real life, but they look like something from another world. You don't believe it. In those cases you see, that Sturges is the difference between art and simple photography. However, the last 1% of his pictures are pure nonsense. They are dominated by mistakes, that you can read from Beginner's Guide or Photography for Dummies. Or, they are just silly and meaningless, a waste of paper. But that's only 1%. The rest is enough for 6 stars, if I had the option. If you would like to have a look at Jock Sturges, but still short of money, you should buy only this book. It has got a number of the same pictures as in his other books.

STUNNING!

Since the first time I discovered this book I found myself contemplating rather than observing this photographs. There is a very unique sense of Truth in this piece of art. Simple but astonishingly deep, as true art should always be. I recommend to listen to three beautiful albums while you enjoy this book: 1. Cocteau Twins- "Milk and Kisses" 2. Mark Hollis "Mark Hollis" 3. Ketil Bjornstad "The Sea. part I". Other-wordly music for other-wordly photography

An artist's dream comes to fruition.

I have always known that Jock Sturges was a genius, but this book proves it. Finally, his work is presented the way he intended and it has all the power, beauty and passion that one should expect from a visual artist of his caliber. It is truly a celebration of youth, beauty and life!

SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL WORK

This book contains nude young girls either by themselves or with family and friends. A guide tells you what models are in each picture. You will get to follow many of these young ladies as they start at the adolescent age and progress to young adulthood. There are a good many photos of some models and only one or two of another one. These children are very beautiful and Sturges will always have a large audience for his work.

The Work of A Master

I consider myself an expert in this are of photography. I have completely analylized both of Sturges' other books and this one tops them both. His use of light and his angle of photography is unbelievable. He captures his shots excellently. Very few photographers these days take the time to take the picture the exact way they had orginally planned it. I used enjoy the work of David Hamilton more than Mr. Sturges, but after reading this one I will defiinitly support Mr. Sturges with a greater passion. My "co-viewer" and I both agree that this is the best work of photography of its kind in a long time!!!
