The ICONIC photograph-show it here

[chanteuseCarey]

Alright folks, let's see your pictures of what you consider to be a modern representation of the Golden Era/Art Deco Era. Show us your best shot!

I'll start: here is our 13yo son Daniel in front of a vintage roadster at the Art Deco Society of Northern California's Gatsby Summer Afternoon 13September2009. btw, that cigareet is a candy one...

What a fun shot! Luckily your son has many more years ahead of him to get more vintage style shots.

Here's my favourite shot of myself. Taken in Napier, New Zealand in 2006 when I was crowned 'Bathing Belle'.

We don't have Photoshop, otherwise I'd remove the people in the background!

People? :eusa_doh:

What people? I don't see any people.

Dinerman, ChanteuseCarey,

Those two photos are beautiful! I wasn't aware you could still buy candy cigarettes...I wonder where I can find some. Dinerman, that piano looks beautiful.

**itches to play it**

Thank you Miss Sis!
What a great picture, and WE do have Photoshop... Let me see what we can do here, we have the technology.

ICONIC is too strong a word for this shot, but I do like the whole feeling about it...

Washday.

Feel the glamour.

I feel cleanliness. I smell starch, and Fels Naphtha*, and the hot-metal tang of a waiting steam iron. The comfy old-rubber scent of the mangle. The rainy ozonated air of line-dried washing waiting for me to fold. Dust baking inside a five-tube wooden cabinet reverberating with The Romance of Helen Trent or some local 100-watter spinning platters in between police calls. Cookies cooling on a bake sheet in an open window.

I feel the distinct expectation that I go out and mow grass. The folding will wait.

*Kind of like Dial, really. I think. It's been decades.

Washday.

Feel the glamour.

I love it! I'm getting more into "regular" ladies and "working" ladies than movie stars these days

Thanks, Bassman! We have my mother to thank for taking the pic.
