Boys of St. Petersburg Hardcover – November 1, 2014

Disappointing. The images are all technically good. The artist says that he was challenged to go out of his comfort zone, but this book doesn't support the statement. You have some images that are computationally good, nice figure studies. Others, like three guys walking down the street, smoking, have all the charm of a snap shot of three guys walking down the street smoking. Some images of the city left me wondering why they were included. The work is uneven.

they have some good looking young men in St. Petersburg. I really enjoyed this book and recommend this to those who enjoy books of genre.

No the boys of St Petersburg are not all bundled up in fur coats. Quite to the contrary. Those who insist on full frontal nudity on every page should look elsewhere, but the young men on these pages are often naked, always ingratiating, and usually photographed in refreshingly exotic settings. Those of us who know little about this town can get a dandy little tour, but the beautiful Russian boys naturally dominate. And beautiful they are.

Wow missed opportunity. Wish there were more frontal nudity.

All excellent. Very good quality and variety of content. I recommend it a lot.

I was pleasantly surprised by the size of the book and the full-page images it contained. The printer and publishers as well as the photographer are to be complimented in such a competent and high quality production.The photos do all the talking, not really needing any captions, although there is an introduction and some closing comments, which set the scene quite well. The artistry in the photographs is stunning, with the subjects well placed, relaxed and obviously cooperative. The photographer has a good eye and imagination, capturing something of the soul of the city through the portraits of his subjects.For those who have not yet visited this city, this is an intimate tour, and whets the appetite. Lets hope there are further books from Michael Andrew.

I have to be honest I haven't opened it yet!. But I know it's good, as I saw it in Prowler store soho.Looking forward to looking through it tom I'm off work, for a few days!
