Jerry Pedersoli
Playgirl's trademark orange glow is on in this photo of Jerry Pedersoli from March, 1980.
How did they get that orange effect? Was it just in the lighting? Or in the developing process? One thing I like about Playgirl photos is that they were all taken before this silly crotch-and-sack shaving craze began, so we're seeing men who aren't denying they reached puberty.
Because that was film, I rarely took any 'explicit' pix. I did have a developer in No. VA (1989-1995) who was family and I could have him develop anything 'naughty.' He probably kept some copies for himself. Only used the filter for landscapes. I used that filter for a few years but got tired of it after while and reverted to non-filtered pix. -Dee Exx
Mambo Italiano ! Must be a trait from the alpine Alto-Adige region of Italy. Though I once saw an incredible blond young man in Bari, where natural blonds are rare….:)

ReplyDeleteI'm not sure how they did it. Probably a combination of the things you mention. j Also, see Dee's comment below.
DeleteI had a orange filter for my last film camera, I think it was a number 85-Dee Exx
ReplyDeleteAnd what sort of pictures were you taking? LOL, just kidding.
