A celebration of the human body and spirit in more than 100
photographs - all nude, all taken at night. These photographs
illustrate the hard work and the dedication it takes to succeed in
dancing, acting, photography - or really any creative endeavour
that at first may be incredibly frightening or make you feel
vulnerable, but once achieved offers an exhilaration previously
unimagined. The photos were shot over 200 nights, with 300
different dancers, in more than 400 locations, in all kinds of
weather. The photos are grouped by theme - Vulnerability, Ferocity,
Stability, Ecstasy - and include shots from sunset to dawn, in
spectacular black and white and glorious colour. Many will be
accompanied by an inspiring quote. Additional text will include
Jordan's introductory essay, describing how he came up with the
book idea and how he is inspired by the dancers he photographs, as
well as "Behind the Scenes" stories of how the shot was achieved
and "In Their Shoes" - words from the dancers on what it was like
to be photographed in nude in public.
