Howard Schatz is an award-winning photographer now living in New York City. With seventeen books of photographs to his credit, Schatz's wide-ranging artistic oeuvre includes studies of dancers, athletes, portraiture and a world of underwater imagery that is different from anything ever seen.
In this photographic series, Schatz successfully uses the shape of people's bodies to count down from the number nine.
Implications - Scatz's nude numbers are eloquently shot, capturing each number in the perfect form. With the bubbles surfacing, the modelling duo manages to pose with ease. The models closed eyes and expressions give an intimate feeling to this very bare photo series. The Nude Number photographs are a perfect combination of underwater photography and flexibility.
