Breakfast with Audrey

Who would I have at my dinner table if I could? Well, I must admit that Audrey Hepburn would be at the head of the table. This photo was taken last year and, for a woman who has been dead for 18 years, she looks incredible. Imagine what she was like when she was alive!

Actually, you may have guessed that this isn’t really Audrey. Madame Tussaud’s in London has this scene set up for people like me to ogle. She really is quite stunning, even in wax.

While looking around the Intramanet, I came across a whole lot of Audrey Hepburn related briefs on a site called (and I kid you not) Greenland Culture File. Check it out here.

I haven’t posted for some time – competing priorities and having a dud spell on the photography  I have been experimenting with my camera and have produced some spectacularly bad pics which will never be seen by human eyes. They have been recycled into ones and zeros on my PC.

Hopefully, looking back over some old shots will inspire me and maybe produce some postings over the coming days/weeks. And I still await a visitor from Greenland!

And a couple of departing quotes from Audrey:

Nothing is impossible, the word itself says ‘I’m possible’

 

The most important thing is to enjoy your life – to be happy – it’s all that matters.
