Life Magazine Photographer Studies Cutest Cheerleaders
This gallery from Ronald Martinez over at Life Magazine is all about cheerleaders. The result, as you might expect, is a large gallery of mainly blonde female cheerleaders. This awesomely sexist approach is forgotten when you start to look at the actual images themselves.
Ronald Martinez's photographs of cheerleaders are some of the best I have seen of any sport, and they show the extreme skill it takes to be a cheerleader. Point proven, clearly you can’t just be a pretty face to be a cheerleader.
