While putting this series together, I noticed that Al Parker was frequently photographed with Levis in various states of undress, and he always looked good. The photographer's use of the shade in this picture made in a California vineyard is quite interesting.
His body has a yellowish cast here, which does not detractfrom the shot at all, IMHO.
ReplyDeleteI think it's part of the shading and might have been intentional.
DeleteThe shot was probably taken on Ektachrome film which tends to produce yellow or blue tones on models, depending on their actual skin color, when in the shade.
ReplyDeleteInteresting technical detail. Thanks!
