Bubble Muscle
Our last Herb Ritts photograph of the set is Bubble Muscle from 1987. Although I get
a faint whiff of steroids from the model's thighs, it's still a work of art.
Jerry, you have broadened my world and I suspect many others that follow your posts since you made the expansive changes, not sure how long ago. My daily visits to your blog are one of the highlights of my day. Thank you so very much!
You are right about the steroid use in this model. From what I remember, he was ambivalent about using bodybuilding types in his work. He had his pick of well built fashion models.
The male's tan is wonderfully contrasted against the white background. I really like these shots!
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed the set.

ReplyDeleteThank you, vv! Your kind words and consistent participation in the comments mean a lot to me.
DeleteReally special and unique! Really stands out. Such a work of arts. So many elements coming together here.
ReplyDeleteI agree and wonder how many tries it took to get this shot.

ReplyDeleteWhile I admire the photo greatly, a more natural male body would have been even better.
DeleteAgree that would go more with the rest of the photo. The over worked legs kind of contrast and stick out.
DeleteStill amazing.
