Whenever anyone does a list of the greatest golden era physique photographers, Dave Martin is there. Today we will look at some of his outdoor work with models whom I believe not to be his iconic college athletes. I could be wrong about some of theses . . . I've been wrong lots of times.
We star the show with a very happy looking Doug Madison.
Delightful shot. Lovely to see a model smile like this. The joys of outdoor nudity.
ReplyDeleteThat smile does not look forced at all.
DeleteHe seems so light and gay!
ReplyDeleteSmile always enhance the picture!
ReplyDeleteAlways!
DeleteI would venture to say you are right about the models not being his college men. I wish he had photographed some of them in the outdoors. Such as Jay Holt, my personal favorite. I do have one of him by a pool in color with trunks on, I'm guessing Dave took the photo. That said, this is great one of Doug.
ReplyDeleteFor whatever reason, you are correct about the paucity of Cave Martin outdoor photos of college athletes.
DeleteFreudig nackter Mann :)
