Weekly Assignment : Nude

This photo was taken by Jan Hendrik den Boestert in 1950.

Nudity has always been a taboo, especially in the 40 As a photographer I see nudity as a work of art, when well photographed, nudity can be very subtle and beautiful.

In the early 20th century, the nude photos were seen as indecent or immoral. Only in modern times that these photos, taken before, were "famous" and are duly admired.

Nudity before the cameras started nearly two centuries before the popularization of intenet and webcams and long before the porn industry transform the body and sex in merchandise to compulsive consumption. "From the beginning of art history, portraying the human body has been a major challenge for artists and resulted in supreme achievements, as can be seen in the galleries of Greek and Roman statuary or the paintings of Renaissance masters" Thomas Campbell.

I want to take some nude pictures of some models for my portfolio. Good taste can be the key to beautiful pictures... and good taste I have, I just need to find a model that can inspired me to take some awesome photos.

I am not good in take pictures of people, I don't feel the connection... people never get the best of me as a photographer. I like landscape, architecture and still ife pictures.

I must improve my connection with people, It's necessary to consolidate a promising career and to achieve that I must create all kind of photos and show how good I can be in what I am doing.
