Misson Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 Mission you are right, she seems to be inwardly laughing at us all.. I may be seeing more than is there, but I don't think it's quite that harsh. More like mocking the formality of the outfit. Compare it to the informality of the chair and the setting. I also sense a also a tad, a very small amount, of insecurity in there - especially in the hands and posture. It's a wonderful photo IMO.

Mary Diamond Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 This is one of those photos I have always liked. It's a photo of Helen Wills Moody, a very successful tennis player who won 31 Grand Slam titles and 2 Olympic gold medals in the 1920s and 30s. Wills was an introvert who was quite detached - she rarely showed emotion, ignored her opponents, and took little interest in or notice of the crowd. You can sense this in the photo, but there is much more there. Something deeper. I've always thought this photo had that odd "Mona Lisa" bemused look about it. Magnificent control, deep waters ~ I love it. Oooh, shiny!
hitman Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 Lovely pic Mission. She looks as if she saying "ok ok ok just take the damn picture then lets get back to our conversation. You know you really are silly to think any one will want to see me." THIS BE THE HITMAN WE GOIN QUIET
Rumba Rue Posted July 18, 2007 Posted July 18, 2007 Ok, here's the brand new pictures of my Moustached Parakeet, named Corky. Also of Gilligan the Senegal, and Poppy the Parakeet, oh and yours truly. Corky will eventually get more blue on his head and his chest should turn pink. You can read more about Moustached Parakeets here: Moustached Parakeets
Red Cat Jenny Posted July 18, 2007 Posted July 18, 2007 Awwww!! Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.... Her reputation was her livelihood. I'm a pirate, love. By nature and by choice! My inner voice sometimes has an accent! My wont? A delicious rip in time...
Mary Diamond Posted July 18, 2007 Posted July 18, 2007 Your kids are so cute! One of these days I'll get around to posting mine ~ Diamond the beagle (she was named BEFORE we got her) and Stitch the cat (cough, Overlord). Oooh, shiny!
Misson Posted July 18, 2007 Posted July 18, 2007 Stitch? As in Lilo and...? (Stitch in the first movie was really cool. Then they kind of watered him down...)

LongTom Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 Me wee cabin boy. (He's not so wee anymore. Comes up to my nose, almost. Where did the last decade go?)
Misson Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 That's what my re-enacting character should be! An undead pirate. I know just how to do that. (Let's see what the period folks make of that costume.

Mary Diamond Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Stitch? As in Lilo and...? (Stitch in the first movie was really cool. Then they kind of watered him down...) Oops, sorry for the delayed reaction Yes, self and same, as our Stitchies bad-ness level is always very high ~ I too was disappointed Stitch didn't reach his full outrageous potential in L&S II ~ Oooh, shiny!
Misson Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Imagine if Stitch had been a Warner Brothers cartoon creation...
