mof-mof: minimum of fuss, maximum of flavour. York UK

Me, dressed as Kurt Cobain at a fancy dress party, in what he was wearing for his last photoshoot: white oval sunglasses, black and white striped t-shirt, leopard print jacket, hunter-style hat with the flaps down and peak up. Cigarette (fake) hanging from lips.
Lady Agnew of Lochnaw by John Singer Sargent. Seated in three-quarter length pose with her left arm draped over the arm of the chair. Wearing a white gown with a mauve sash, she looks directly at the viewer. Her gaze has been described as "something withheld and inviting in her quizzical half-smile" and in my opinion very alluring indeed…
Photo of two giraffes, one with a neck only just protruding over the tree line, the second the same height but with much less foliage below. It’s the usual photo people use when talking about trimming pubic hair.

A (terrible) photo from Raiders of the Lost Ark, a scene where Indian Jones is meeting the government officials and explaining the Ark of the Covenant. The camera shot is low, from behind the two seated officials. The nearest one is almost is silhouette, dividing the shot between Jones&Brody, and a blackboard on which Jones’s shadow is cast. The shadow/silhouette of Indy (usually with fedora) is a repeating visual trope in the Indiana films.
An Apple reminder notification for “Tamarind”
