Herb Ritts not only uses a verity of diverse models in his photography but be also uses male models wearing makeup. They wear makeup but are still portrayed as strait, manly and masculine, which is a hard taboo to break because people only really seem to be accenting of men in makeup if it is drag.
They have got me thinking of my Macho Man design and the boundaries that I can push without going too drag.
He also shoots in black and white so its interesting for me to see a majority of the tones he uses because I am planning to shoot in black and white also but I want to get the tones right.
