“Marilyn Was A Photographer’S Dream Subject With Her Clothes On, And Even More Stunning With Them Off. Her Wet Skin Glistened. Her Eyes Sparkled. Her Smile Was Provocative…As I Shot, I Was Sure That The Pictures I Was Taking Were Going To Be Beautiful And Unforgettable. The Flow Of Her Spine Complemented Her Natural Curves As The Water Reflected The Lights, And The Whole Scene Came Alive.”
