  5. What a great photo! Judging by their clothes, perhaps they are very different personalities yet friendship draws them together. What great companions are our female friends! Your quote reminds me to reread some of Nin's diaries. Have a joyous weekend, my dear cyberfriend!

  6. That's an award winning photo, Jilly! Perfect photo!
    The silver motorbike was a bonus in your frame!

    Is your CDP Media pass ready for the upcoming wedding...

  8. Leif I didn't even apply for a press pass for the Monaco wedding. They talk about 1500 journalist/photographers - I thought I'd get lost in the crush...I'll watch it on television. I'm going in tho on the Friday for the Jean-Michel Jarre concert on the port - drinkies for the Monaco residents too in the port (of which I'm not one but will be with one).

    I love this one, Jilly! Thanks once again for a trip down the rue Longue. We lived across from the sign for the old Halal grocery. It looks like they have spruced up a few more buildings. I am not happy with what they did to the street, but I imagine it makes it easier for high heels. These young ladies look lovely in thier sandals. Sorry you are not covering the wedding bash. I know you would catch something no one else could! Have fun at the concert and cocktail party.

  13. This is such a nice composition, Jilly. It is interesting to witness the fondness between one dressed very femininely and the other in pants.

  14. You have a most perceptive eye for an image, Jilly. This is a ripper. Love that hand leaning out like that, indicating that the mouth is going ten-to-the-dozen. The light and the perspective ... great stuff.
