LUMINOSITY
By Mark Henderson
Light, colour and the perfection of the male body— Mark Henderson doesn’t need more to create images of an unmistakable style, which are incredibly popular with the audience. Luminosity is already the fourth photo book by the American artist and he sticks to his formula for success. Masterfully reworked images of men who can easily make your mouth water, and of course we’re perfectly fine with that. These are men, not Twinks, in all their glory with sexy poses, tackle proud and central to what a man is all about… and after all… isn’t that why we love these collections so much?
» Of the several contemporary photographers whose focus is the nude male and whose individual work I admire, it’s Mark Henderson who has broken out of the pack and established himself as a Jim French for the New Millennium.«— Fred Bisonnes

Boys of Chi Omega Chi Kappa – Freshman Initiation
Edited by Mickey Erlach
Finally away from home and free to be himself, the college freshman cannot wait to sow his wild oats… and what better way than to join a fraternity. It’s an American tradition, in the same way as being a fag in a British public school used to be, that has become part of the humiliating way that people treat each other. The fact that what these hot young college boys subject themselves to for the sake of becoming part of a group is hot, steamy and at times unimaginable, should leave you sweaty and yearning for your own US college experience.
