Well putArkangel7x3 wrote: For someone who has female friends who do the nude arts the main thing your focuseing on the body as a whole and usuaelly from a distance or angel were the erotic parts are not the center of attention also the poses done are not with the intention for sexual arrousel it is to show the beauty of the body. Tradtionaly yes people tend to shoot in black and white but it is by no means the only median in which it can be done. Scene and setting play a much higher roll int his style of photography as well becasue you want to have things that would semi tell a story/ distract attention from just the sexualy exposed parts. One tradtional pose is the spreed leg stance from a distance with a cowboy hat or other prop covering the genitalia with a wide shot showing perhapse the backround of a barn or tractor etc. Another is the leaning pose usueally done profile with the subject leaned back against an item in some what of a glamour style. One other thing that even thoe it is not required but is a distinguishing feature is that for females in nude photos they will not have there lower regions shaved so as to give some privacy control and to add to the natural Adam and Eve look that most nude photographers go for thoe this too is subject to opinion and photo shoot. I.E one photo that i saw that might be considered border line was a women spreed legged shaved nude but her center was photoshoped with a zipper not just open and bare and was done at a angel shot from bootm up wards were the head was leand back out of the photo and the breast had a shadow on them so that you could see the outline but no real deatil of the nippels
