X-RAY Magazine

A "friend" of mine dreamed of publishing his own magazine - it's topic, likewise a favorite of mine: men!

Now, a couple of months his dream finally come true.

"X-Ray is a visual sensory indulgence that exhibits the adoration on the male human form. It is a collection of candid iconic imagery that displays lust perfect men as objects of sensual art made for worshipping. The first of its kind, this photo-intensive bookazine (book and magazien format) of hedonistic appeal celebrates A-List celebrities at their sexiest. Each sensually guiltless and expressive page leaves constrasting sensations, bringing excitement to tickle one's imagination. The uninhabited display of heavenly bodies through extensive photographic exhibition boasts of simplicity, elegance and seductive sophistication as seen in the male form. Lauded for his keen eye, acclaimed photographer Ronnie Salvacion expresses artistry in this tribute masterpiece on masculinity. In this age where Eve is glorified in countless forms, the modern Adam rises anew in this moment in time. The beautiful imagery void of masculine guilt is venerated in a universal language that holds no boundaries. As the embodiment of manly sexiness is redefined, the mood, feeling and desire in this essay of post-modern photography are arrestingly breathtaking. This unforgettable sybaritic experience can be seen as we enter the world of X-ray."

Whether he is a movie hearthtrob, rock god, top model or sports superstar, this bookazine promises to portray the local male through the finest photography in the country today. For so long, male celebrities have eluded exposing their intimate selves - giving way to women gracing covers with their sex appeal and sensuality. Now, through X-RAY, readers can see the male celebrity in his most tender and vulnerable form.

The mag features Rafael Rossel, Mark Herras, polo Ravales, Ryan Eigenmann, Rich Vergara and Andrew Wolf
