Beauty Queen's Backsides
Hoover Adkins
"The Miss Florida Pageant folks recruited me as the
'Official Photographer' for their 1982 contest and I accepted because, at the time,
I was fascinated with photographing beautiful women (I still am, by the way).
The night of the event, Orlando's Bob Carr Auditorium was packed with fans and family;
the participants giddy with excitement. I set up my camera and tripod at the rear of
the auditorium and made quite a few exposures. This is my best shot, made when
the master of ceremonies asked the ladies to turn around, show off their
backsides . . . This is a black and white photograph, painted by Anni Adkins." ~ Joe Hoover
