Big month in Reader Publications

Wow, this has been a big month for Art Nudes readers getting their work out in print. With the holidays just around the corner, these all seem like pretty cool gift ideas for the photography enthusiast in your life, even if it means buying them for yourself!

Steve Richard's awesome "Cloud Busting" series is now available in book form. The book was printed at Zanardi Press in Italy and will be in normal book store distribution early 2011 (being distributed through University of New Mexico Press). In the meantime, it is now available for sale on directly through Steve's site.

I was excited to hear about F-eleven a new book that is being published via Blurb. This looks like a really excellent collection of some of the luminaries of the contemporary nude photography scene, including several friends and favourites of this blog.

As if getting a book with this much great content wasn't enough, proceeds from the sale of the book will be donated to Friends Without a Border a charity committed to improving the health and well being of the children of Cambodia by providing quality medical care, extensive outreach and crucial medical education through Angkor Hospital for Children.

Check out this link for ordering information and an extensive preview of the book's contents.

Obsession Art

I seldom, if ever, post a link to a "commercial" site, but I'll make an exception in the case of Obsession Art. This is a UK based website that specializes in nude photography printed to order and shipped worldwide (for a surprisingly reasonable cost). It's a very user friendly site, and I recognize the names of a number of artists that I've featured here over the years, all of whom I assume get a commission from sales. They also provide good quality preview images without obnoxious watermarking, so even if you just want to go browse, there's lots to see.
