100 Naked Girls Hardcover – January 1, 2006

Nudity. What does it evoke? Sexuality? Freedom? Familiarity? Comfort? The human as abstract? Hegre captures all of these in this book through a series of portraits of different young women posing nude.While a few images are clearly erotic, not all are. Ellen (#23) strikes a very pose which produces an almost abstract piece of photographic artwork. Ingrid, #33, poses in a work that inspires a sense of playful freedom. Kristina, #47, stretches out in joy. Lza's (#57) tatoos make for almost disturbing art. The second portrait of Sabina (#76) evokes a greater sense of familiarity and comfort than anything else, and so forth. In each image, one is absorbed and subsumed into a world which evokes emotions. Sometimes sexuality is a part of those emotions but often it is not.The composition in the images is always excellent. There's a reason why Hegre's art is highly acclaimed. He's a real master.

Yup, there are 100 naked girls all right, and most of them are very attractive (one or two I didn't think were all that attractive, but some were absolutely breathtaking). The photography is good, and to his credit the photographer keeps it simple and simply takes good pictures of attractive, naked women. I highly recommend it.

I was basically looking for a book with good looking women taking in a professional manner. I liked this book. although the subjects are not professional models, they looked good and the pictures are of high quality.

Looks to me like his other books are better. These girls aren't all that great. Too skinny, too pale, never smile. Boring.

good pictures of naked women not pictures of spoiled little girl.

Hegre has really made a name for himself through the years, and I have to say that since I started finding his pictures, I developed certain respect for his work. Nevertheless, I gotta admit, this book doesn't particularly improve my opinion of his talent.Now, the good parts. One of the things I have always admired of Mr. Hegre's work, is that he's one of the very few photographers I've seen that can shoot a picture "showing pink", and it looks really artistic (with a few exceptions) in contrast with the cheap "pink showing pictures" you find elsewhere. And his shots look amazingly sharp 99% of the time. And for the book itself, the quality of the paper, the printing and the binding is really good.The bad, well, as many people have said before me, there's very little difference, if any at all, between this book's contents, and those find on his website, and others where he collaborates. Second, I expected much more from someone with his talent and experience. I think that any serious amateur photographer with the right equipment could have nailed those shots. Third, there is very little variety. Don't misunderstand me, this women, almost without exception, are so stunning that they take your breath away. But they look a lot alike.I don't totally regret having bought it, but if I had seen it first, I probably wouldn't have.

hegre's work is amazing,..excellent photography, very inspiritaional if your pursuing boudoir style Photo-work,..I would recommend this. Its on my coffee table with a suicide girls gallery book .
