Easter Bunnies

We'll get around to our regular posting in a moment,

but first let's look at some Easter Bunnies gone wrong.

I hope these kids weren't permanently traumatized.

 

Angry bunny

"I told you to leave the plaid eggs alone!"

 

Over it

Our last Easter Bunny is just sooooo over it.

And now we return to our regular programming.

 

Bruce of LA Day

It's Bruce of Los Angeles day, and we begin with Charlie Ram

in a spot outside Bruce's shower that you'll see again later in the set.

 

Sam Pierre

Bruce posed Sam Pierre against a roughly mortared cinder block garden wall.

 

David Zurborg

In photo made at a garden gate, we get a good view of David Zuborg's backside.

 

Glen Porter

Although not the sort of shadow a certain viewer prefers,

Glen Porter's adds something to this photo.

 

Henry Jones

This is Henry Jones drying off outside Bruce's shower.  Although not as famous (or should 

I say infamous) as Bob Mizer's shower, Bruce put his own to good use.

 

John Clark

For some reason Bruce posed John Clark reclining on a 

huge piece of paper wearing just his shoes and socks.

 

Paul Strand

Here we see Paul Strand on Bruce's famous tuffett.

 

Mike Norlan

This shower shot by Bruce is one of the better photos I've seen of Mike Norlan,

but we should remember that he also worked for Pat Rocco and even did a film or two.

 

Harlan Lutz

Harlan Lutz looks mighty good with one of Bruce's ball props.

 

Robert Deckard

And last, but certainly not least, we have Robert Deckard.

 

Al Mims

Al Mims' back is a work of art in this photograph.

 

George Dureau Day

George Dureau was one of the finest artists to ever come out of New Orleans, and it's been 

far too long since I featured his work here.  We start with Aaron Davis from 1985.

 

John Hinton

I don't know whether to call John Hinton's expression stern or serious.

 

Louis Goins

George Dureau posed Louis Goins on two blocks with good effect.

 

Jordan, Emmett, and Gloria

I find this group composed of Jordan Page, Emmett Johnson, 

and Gloria Johnson to be quite striking.

 

Raymond Maxwell

Is it just me, or does Raymond Maxwell look a teeny bit like O.J. Simpson here?

 

Alvin Soco

This is Alvin Soco.

 

Glenn Thompson

Based on the number of photos he took of him,

I'd say Mr. Dureau enjoyed working with Glenn Thompson.

 

Otto Battiste

Otto Battiste looks very muscular in his tank top.

 

Emmett Johnson

Finishing the George Dureau series with Emmett Johnson,

a model who got favorable comments on previous posts.

 

Bill Cable Day

Fern and mirror

I like the composition of this Colt photo with the mirror door, fern, and Bill.

You'll see another sort of mirror shot later today.

 

Poolside bush

Soapy Bill

We get a big smile from soapy Bill in a shower by Colt.

 

AMG I

In the first of two AMG photos in today's series, we see Bill Cable reclining atop a motorcycle.  

If Bob Mizer didn't invent that motif, he certainly made good use of it on numerous occasions.

 

Colt Cowboy

Here we see Mr. Cable popping out of his Levis in one of Colt's cowboy photo sets.

 

Derriere

Bill Cable posed in an art gallery for this one.

 

Tease

This one only goes to show that Jim French of Colt could go subtle on occasion.

 

AMG II

Here's another AMG shot of Bill Cable.

 

Hazy mirror

Our last picture of Bill Cable is one of about half a dozen in my 

collection where he is posed with a hazy mirror or sheet of metal.
