2008-05-27 Porn!

I know nothing about the author or Taschen books in general, so this book was a LOT more explicit than I was expecting!! I bought it because I love taking photos of my wife and I also have a bit of a thing about her feet, so I thought this book would give me some inspiration for combining my 2 passions.

However, there are in fact remarkably few photos that I think are very artistic and which I would like to emulate in my own shots. Most of the photos in this book lack any artistry IMHO and are little more than pure porn. And if that's what you're looking for there are plenty of better ways of satisfying that need than by looking in this book!

Similarly the accompanying DVD tries to be 'artistically pornographic', but in fact is just, on the whole, pretty lame.

The book is ok, but I was hoping for better. The DVD is pants.
