Summary: Worth every penny!
Review: Any serious artist should have this text on their shelf. The simple anantomy of the human body is not enough as found in other similar texts, but this text offers not only dancers in motion but still poised with lighting that shows the muscles we completely miss in full light. The silver gelatin prints darken the skin enough to show each nuance. A must have.It's art for artists.

Summary: Creative, unique, wonderful look at the human form!
Review: Five stars! As an artist, Howard Schatz breaks new ground in representing the human form. His dancers are shown in some of the best photographs I've ever seen. An artist myself, I love his use of composition, subject matter, black & white film, and paused action. Absolutely wonderful.

Summary: Beautiful dancers - but not as good as Waterdance
Review: Had I not seen Waterdance first, this book would have been a number 1 for photography of dancers. I'm a fan of the human body, and this book shows it beautifully. While excellent, it leaves me wishing for that something more, that something that exists in Waterdance. I'm thrilled to see that Schatz has continued the water photography in Pool of Light - can't wait for it to be delivered. - Sam Hunter

Summary: Photographs of dancers is one of year's best photo books.
Review: Howard Schatz book of dancers photographed in the studio is a high energy look at their subtle grace. Schatz clearly was influenced by the wonderful work of Lois Greenfeild. In fact, many other photographers work comes to mind when viewing this book! But that does not diminish the overall appeal of his work. As enjoyable as his last book "Waterdance" but displayed in a larger format with top quality reproduction. My favorite photography book of 1997.
