   There are some delightful and candid private party snapshots of Anna Wintour, a nearly naked Gisele Bundchen and JLo 2 ways: elegant in ball gown with a posse of Dobermans and complete with codpiece for the cover of the March 2012, V magazine. There is black and white and color, nudes and fashion campaigns.
   The retrospective also allows us ordinary folk temporary access to Testino's world with 16 screens showing behind the scenes video of the celebrity snapper at work. The hand-held multimedia guide also recalls career-defining moments through audio and video selections.
   Always in search of capturing a special moment in time, Testino started taking smaller cameras to parties like the Met Ball. Of a particularly stunning shot of Anna Wintour leaving one of the biggest events in the fashion calendar, he said, "Photographers are like cowboys. The quicker you draw your gun, the more likely you are to survive. These moments exist for a split second. This picture could have been nothing the second before, or the second after."
   Some may see this exhibition as just another example of a celebrity obsessed world: pretty snaps of beautiful people in glamorous settings. But, many of these images are extremely revealing. And, I don't just mean the nudes.
