50’s Pin-Up Bicycle Babe…

… dragged, giggling & pouting into the 70’s.

I’m currently working on a redux of those 50’s cheesecake pin-ups, with models, props, processing, and colour tones to try to replicate that “ Ektachrome 100 Pro” era. This is a work in progress, I haven’t worked on grain and colour decay yet, but what do you think of the work so far?

The combo I’m using here is a Canon R5, RF-EF Adaptor, and 50mm F1.2 L. BTW, I still consider this “not so nifty fifty” to be the ultimate “any light, any conditions 50mm portraiture lens” available.

You are off to a good start. Keep at it. I'm anxious to see how they turn out.

I like it a lot, but being a picky detail guy, I would remove the cell phone holder from the right handlebar!

Ahah! You saw what I saw on my first glance at the bike! However, I just laughed and said “Let’s leave it on the handlebars, in case someone needs reassurance that this set WASN’T shot in the Seventies”.

I think that’s true and I believe it seems to go in waves in the US? Whatever the wave motion is, there’s a perceptible difference between the average public viewpoint and the gap between Nudity and Lewdness… and there’s a bigger gap between what appears (pun fully intended) to be socially acceptable in Europe & Asia, when compared with social acceptance in the USA & Middle East.

An easy example is topless female advertising; common in Europe, almost unknown in the US, even when it involves US Stars:

Here’s another: https://www.uglyhedgehog.com/t-786286-1.html

Something slightly more risqué without showing all those feminine features that aren’t fit for US Public Forums. 😉
