Now thats very amusing. Cate Blanchett is so talented and beautiful. I find the shot on the right just so cutesy expressive and charming. A woman like that is worth finding and kept. Yep, Yep...

Another example of the man trying to keep the people down. Parking to the people! Parking to the people!
Do you know what year this was taken? Based on that brown car,( a Chrysler?), I am guessing between '71 and '73. I had a '75 Duster that very same brown.
Great photo.

I’ll do it here!:
Re: The David La-Chapelle image – it makes me think of a bourgeois or an aristocratic fairytale… the passionate (red roses on the dress?+ hair) and innocent (white dress, plus arms in Christ-like crucifixion pose) lady seems to be in a dream… possibly lost in a maze (which reminds me of “alien” crop-circles)—the skewed angle also adds to the dream-like quality: things are slightly out of balance. We (the spectators) appear to be above the scene… possibly this is the lady’s view itself, as she has an out-of-body experience… but it also makes her look all the more vulnerable. Perhaps, she represents some sort of “presence” at the end of a long search… but that presence itself is a non-presence: she seems unconscious. Maybe she is opening herself up in relaxed acceptance of the end of her own search… finding that “presence” in her own being or reverie.
Formally, the brilliant picture juxtaposes (almost) red and green—and places the figure in the foreground, with the receding maze echoing the spiral pattern and curves. The shadows suggest an afternoon sunlight… the dress reflecting the light quite brightly, as if in some sort of “Vision.” That shoe looks rather uncomfortable… the distance of it from her foot, and the outward thrust arms suggest an “explosive” collapse—possibly in some sort of religious ecstasy.
