Ron Lloyd, in his third book for Bruno Gmünder, continues to fill the pages of his LEGEND MEN with massively muscular macho men. His trademark is having the obviously well trained models face him with full eye contact and full frontal everything else The result is a panoply of beefcake that somehow match handsome faces with Greek God bodies. As the press release describes the contents of this book: 'sometimes saints, sometimes sinners and pretty often both, this elite legion of men are not content to merely watch the world go by, but instead often find themselves in a world that quite literally stops for them, because very rarely does one witness male gender of such astonishing stature and grace. Each uniquely handsome in his own individual way, yet all undeniably possess the same power to connect with the camera to project both and sensuality simultaneously. Using the lens to roam the contours of their bodies, Lloyd's classically trained eye brings an aesthetic to his images as unparalleled as the men he captures.'

Lloyd has captured images of famous weightlifters such as Zeb Atlas and Von Legend along with many new faces to the musclemen world, and the results are a collection of models whose devotion to the art of physique is as obvious as is the joy of sharing their work with the viewer!
