Oscar for Thursday

'One should absorb the colour of life,
but one should never remember its
details. Details are always vulgar.'

Loooovvvvvv Sally Mann

Have loved Sally Mann's photography for years.

Born in Lexington, Virginia, Mann's intimate and
evocative images capture the spirit of childhood
in rural America.

Her books include:

At Twelve: Portraits of Young Women

Immediate Family

This one still fascinates me

The final tweaks in photoshop at the end are really
everything. This happens now with every model - even Daria!


Thanks to Dove.

For All Don Draper Fans

Just watched Billy Wilder's 'The Apartment' - it is a definite precursor to the Mad Men series. Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine are superb as the young, enterprising executive and the plucky elevator girl who meet and fall for one another while working at one of New York's largest insurance companies in the late 1950's.

Happy Easter to All

Love and joyful living ...
