"A beautiful,respectful book about a very powerful time, when the human turns into the butterfly. The photographer doesn't have his adolescent models sign a release form, they are then free to stop the publication or distribution of the photos at any time, even if their feelings or privacy needs change in their adult life."
"Jock Sturges is a photographic artist who travels to the naturist beaches of northern California, France, and Black Island, and uses a very-high-resolution 8x10 camera to capture images that reveal people's inner nature, their view of self, and the balance between the human being an nature.
Not for the closed-minded or the faint of heart - Jock Sturges is the Mapplethorpe of the new millennium. If you like Sally Mann and the aforementioned Robert M., you will enjoy Sturges' work. However, if the sight of the naked/semi-naked human body offends you, regardless of context - don't even open it!"
