Just bought a Canon 20D.  I am an amateur wanting to get into
photography more seriously.   So, am hoping to start to hone my SLR
skills.
Also want to take a poll and see if there are any highly recommended
books on taking nudes that folks out there can recommend.

I'm cruising Amazon.com, but a lot of those books don't have a lot of
customer reviews and/or are pretty mixed.

Anyone out there?

Thanks

You would do best to learn to properly photograph people with their
clothes on first.

Huh?

What the....?    Been a little dry in the girl department lately?   Why
the anger, child?

Please - I'm asking an honest question, and only seek an objective,
intelligent answer.  Obviously photo basics are common amongst film,
digital, clothes, not clothes, cars or fruit trees.   That's not the
issue/question here.   You see how religion clouds the mind?  I suspect
you stop immediately.  As BIll Maher says - Faith/religion - just
another word for stupidity.

Thanks to those who provided intelligent responses.  I appreciate it.

I have one called "Camera Craft: Nudes" by Anna Henly, published by Ava.
It's pretty good. I've also got one called "Photographing the Nude" by
Mike Crawley (published by D&C) that is entirely cheesy in photographic
style but is full of good advice about posing people. Worth a look, if not
entirely worth a full-price purchase.
