Man, she looks scared...

Well she wasn't, my friend, she looked at her mother fiddling around with the camera. ;D

Hey, no worries. I'm kinda nosey, so I've been fascinated to see what everyone looks like. I had planned to start a 'What do you sound like? thread, where we record ourselves saying something daft and post up the files for others to hear. Only, my £70 digital voice recorder has gone into hiding. >:(
lol! I like that idea...... maybe I'll put up a story of me telling an ancient mystical tale of Ubloobideega.


btw, does anyone have any ideas for a picture comparison with me?  >:D

That a really great portrait, dB...it gives us clues about your profession.

Aha, you can't request that!
Well, you look like my friend Tristian with a different hairstyle.

Sarge (and Mrs. Rock), congratulations! After 30+ years of marriage you still look like in the first day (seriously, had I not known the truth I'd have believed you were just married).

Thank you for that. Sigh...if only it were true. Here's my favorite wedding picture:





The two witnesses and I are dutifully listening to the Standesbeamter. The soon to be Mrs. Rock looks like she's trying to find the escape exit. She even has her coat on  ;D

(The Standesbeamter is a civil servant who performs the wedding ceremony. In Germany everyone has to go through this civil procedure. Only then can you be legally married in a church if you want to go that route. We didn't. Her parents offered to throw us a big wedding or give us the money instead. Mrs. Rock, being practical, unsentimental and greedy, opted for the loot.)

Once the ceremony was over, and she had the papers in hand that said she owned me for life, she looked happier:

Bill, Don't Look Now but I wouldn't trust that kid in the red hooded jacket.

Yes, indeed. "Don't Look Now"!

Good reference. I wonder if anybody else gets that reference.

Probably not.

Not a specific one, but you totally remind me of all the immature, unskilled, constantly smirking, lazy, pimply, smartmouthy, very entitled feeling employees I had to deal with (meaning write up or have fired) all the time when I managed the technical operations for a movie theater chain here in Southern California. Man, am I glad I don't work for them anymore!!!
But if I happen to pass by one of my ex-theaters later I will just pop in and take a random picture of a random employee, then we will have a match.

Never have seen the film...too recent I suppose ('73).  ;D  However, I always appreciate "clever" when it occurs....nice film take Sarge, and about time you nailed me for change.  LOL.
