By drawing strength and inspiration from nature's majesty, as well as from the harmony and grace in the movement of the female body, this collection entitled Woman's Light has been created. A celebration, a photographic journey, a collection of images and poetry that provides a lyrical and fluid setting for 20 years of work.

More Reviews : From editor of michelle7

The nudes here from Manolis Tsantakis are absolutely spellbinding. All are shot outdoors in the majestic and breathtaking scenery that is Greece. The rugged splendor of the terrain stands in stark contrast to the soft and beautiful and utterly feminine subjects of this book. And it's this eerie juxtaposition that gives this work its power. The female subjects as well as the scenery are quite beautiful, but difficult it may be to believe, there is a feeling of isolation and despondency here. It's not a negative quality at all, but is instead a melodious sense of melancholy. It's enchanting ... and that's just what we have here - and magical collection of imagery from an artist operating at the height of his power. Hopefully the world will take notice.

"The Athens Voice" Ageliki Birbili

Manolis Tsantakis and Stavros Stavropoulos, photographer and writer respectively, are two companions in a photographic album of poetic emergence - and vice-versa. This work is a pictorial fusion of coloured words and black and white grains, 24 poems of an erotic essence entangled together with 72 nude portraits of women, with the sea of Crete as a background; the result is a melancholy adventure of the gaze into the inmost recesses of the female universe.
