les demoiselles de hamilton
appropriate or not
I find his approach to
be very classical
respectful too
scans from the
1973 book
although today's
younger generation
of fashion photographer's
seem to be following in
his footsteps w/o
much dissent
times have changed,
but back in the 90's:
" a distinction must be
made between eroticism
and pornography; the media
have blurred the disparity to
an unforgivable degree..."

I think they're divine photos. I love that glimpse of bikini tan in the first one ;) K
Sorry to have forgotten about your lovely part of the web. Glad I came across it again.
Amazing stuff and words as always.
I always liked his style myself, though I understand where the controversy came from (isn't there always a bitter argument over the line between art and fashion, as well as the line between art and pornography?). Like it or not, Hamilton's imagery is an integral part of the '70s, and one (or at least I) cannot remember the '70s without thinking of these images. It is interesting, as you mention, that his style and look is emulated shamelessly now.
wonderful photos...ahhhhh the light!!! and great quote!!!!!
i adore the work of david hamilton...i find it so inspirational, the softness and warm light and gentle scenes...so lovely...thanks for sharing this link
pretty!!!
Nostalgic, romantic, gentle.
I love the little bikini tan mark in the top picture. Now that was a time when we didn't feel guilty sunbathing!
Love the hair, the clothes, the misty light. It's all gorgeous really. Seems so innocent now, doesn't it?
great taste! You have some amazing stuff going on here
God. I have been trying to find his photos online just to drool over them. But I remember his site/work being locked...passwords and all that.
So thank you very much! for sharing these.
