And to behave and keep photo-ing in this thread, here's one from earlier this month:
I'm not sure what is going on with my mouth. I think I'm about to snicker at something out there. Taken with my mobile, for minimal quality and maximal zoomieness! Tra la la!
@ Vanessa > Happy birthday. And also, since you shared that picture, I thought you'd agree to let people enjoy it thanks to a little treatment. Of course if you disagree, I'll delete the photo. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it this way.
quick note: if you're wondering who this guy is well hes the guy who shows up at the party with a few bottles of rum, conviently when you just ran out, he is also the guy who knows of the existence of "grammer" but his brain swears up and down that there is no such thing. anyway cheers and happy early all hallows eve
The moon, who is caprice itself, looked in through the window as you lay asleep in your cradle, and said: 'this child pleases me.' and downily descending her stairway of cloud, she passed through the window pane without a sound. Then she stretched herself over you with a mother's careful tenderness, and left her clours on your face. (Charles Bauderlaire le spleen du paris)
Don't know why, but that beautiful girl in the blue bath reminded me of this particular quote?
@Gekko Thanks, but I'm afraid that photo is a bit hopeless. Very low light conditions resulting in very slow shutter speed and blurry mess everywhere.... I'm not sure there's anything that would make it really much better. To me, your treatment makes it seem like there is steam. Like maybe someone walked in on me doing pushups in the sauna. Hee.
@Willow BI00 Glorious! I love that. I admit I was really caught off guard by this guy, though in hindsight there is sadly nothing surprising about it. I just don't normally find myself in situations where there is the opportunity for strangers to address my physical strength one way or another. It most certainly fills me with the urge to start designing some images that are easily printable and postable, or easily converted to stencil. I was planning to do some fun vaguely-gothy reinterpretations/covers of Rosie The Riveter anyhow ...
