Incredible shot! I was fooled, and thought it was Photoshopped or a creation from pixels alone.

Time and place, please!

This was taken during day of the dead in Mexico City.

Here is a La Catrina with El Catrin. This La Catrina could use some black paint.

If you have time to kill I have my photos from the US and some new work from France on my web page. There are about 6 pages. Early work is mostly 4x5 and current is digital.

Terrific! My first take was it was life-size. Clever photography.

Folks- Let's get some place names in play, date if not recent.

Original work (i.e., by you) is preferred.

Me.




À dondé, por favor?

In my living room, this morning! Will be using the head shot as the basis for a sketch from a local artist. Captures her quizzical essence perfectly!

Thanks, man. That's a puzzle we tried to do of the famous Lady Agnew of Lochnaw painting by John Singer Sargeant. It stayed on the table a couple weeks but finally conquered us!

Here is the actual painting. I believe it’s housed in Scotland but I saw it in person at the Kimball in Fort Worth, Texas once when it was making its rounds. An absolutely fascinating piece of work. Those eyes!

Not my photo but one I found online that might interest some here. The caption under it read: "A Victorian husband relaxing in his dressing gown and hat while his wife lights his pipe with a taper. London, circa 1865"

I need to get my wife to light my pipe as I sit in my dressing gown (where to get one these days?)...
