Pictures I like

[NikF]

I always liked this photo of Catherine Deneuve. It's from the late 1960s and was taken by Jeanloup Sieff. Think it was either for Vogue or Harper's Bazaar. The other reason I'm posting it is because there was a discussion recently in the photography thread about dodging and burning. This is one of my favourite examples of employing that technique.

And I thought putting out a bowl of Peanut M&M's or wings for guests was unhealthy!


Need one of these:

It needs a title. "Suck it, Tubin!" perhaps. I had you pegged for a Rosenberg fan too.

Tubin, IMHO, isn't a Nordic composer. I don't really know enough about Rosenberg to become a fan of his music. I have two recordings of his music (one on BIS and the other a ballet Orpheus in Town on a label whose name slips me right now). I don't remember a note of his music, but I seriously doubt he will make it into my Nordic pantheon.

I take it you don't like Grieg?

Very nice indeed!

I like Grieg, but he's not a favorite of mine.

A beautiful set of string quartets awaits you...

Thanks, Bill. It's easy to do these collages in Microsoft Paint and what I do is save the project as a JPEG image. From here, I reopen the image with Microsoft Windows Live Photo Gallery and it allows me to crop the image (and do some adjustments in color like brightness, contrasts, etc.).
