Stunning


This is one of my all-time favorite images from Albert's blog.  Not only is it technically outstanding in terms of composition and stop action, but the model is nothing less than amazing.
On top of all that, we have a hairy chest and a fine happy trail.

  1. I believe this is Hobart Billingsley (1926-2022), who was a swimming and diving coach at Indiana University for around 30 years. His career included the training of Olympic contestants, 7 of whom won gold and bronze medals (1968, 1972, 1976). I don't have a date for this photo. Clearly, his personal swim routines worked marvels at keeping him in such great shape.

  4. Porträt eines Champions.
    So ähnlich wie die Tauchsequenz, die Kameraman Hans Ertl im Film Olympia von Leni Riefenstahl gedreht hat.
    Um einen dramatischen Effekt zu erzielen, schlug Hans Ertl vor, Teile der Tauschsequenz umzukehren. (“)
