Distant Song

Art imitates life, twice.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL AT AM3. I am out and probably away from the computer all this week. We are headed to north Georgia to spend Thanksgiving with our son and his wife and her family. I hope everyone who celebrates this holiday has a wonderful day, filled with turkey and gratitude for every blessing. And those who do not, I hope will remember to count their blessings and be thankful. Packing and getting the SUV all set for the drive today; we leave very early Tuesday morning and plan to return sometime Sunday.

Looks like she was eating blueberries before singing. I wish my teeth were that white!!! :) Cool shot!

@HorseRotorVator: The price of blueberries dropped this week; last night Mrs. Viewfinder made a blueberry cobbler. So we ate blueberries. Yumm! But as to whether or not our subject had just eaten blueberries before singing, well... I'll leave that to your imagination. Heh. Thanks for coming by today. :^)

Jason Kravitz from Brussels, Belgium

She looks a bit like Barbara Streisand in a Chucky Cheese puppet style. I responded to your question on my page :)
We were on the same track today with singing divas hehe

@Jason Kravitz: Thanks for coming by -- and for answering my question on your site. I think your assessment of my subject "Barbara Streisand in a Chucky Cheese puppet style" really catches the spirit of this one. Your diva is far more beautiful than mine. Ah, well...

Michael Rawluk from Prince George, Canada

She must have quite a voice.

@Michael Rawluk: Got your e-message; I guess every paradise has its mosquitoes or no-see-ums or black flies or something. }:-( But yes, this purple lady can really belt out a tune.

Richard_Irwin from Belper, United Kingdom

Ha ha, a funny face - is it Barbara Streisand?, or perhaps a younger Margaret Thatcher?

29 Jun 2007 4:11pm

@Richard_Irwin: I guess it could be Barbara, or maybe if Margaret had not gone into politics, but entertainment... hmm... nah, couldn't be Margaret. Might be Hillary, though.

Jen from Alpharetta, United States

Great shot!
