Jock Sturges' photos of nude adolescents ( mainly women ) and their families are beautiful and I would say worshipful of budding womanhood. They are not erotic, sexy, exploitive or objectifying but simply beautiful. If you have the opportunity, you should at least browse through one at a library or bookstore. I borrowed them from UVA, my local university library.
"Radiant identities" is het tweede boek van de Amerikaanse fotograaf Jock Sturges. Vergelijkbaar met zijn eerste boek, maar met iets meer mooie foto's.
