The Beauty and the Simplicity
Today is Annie Leibovitz day...in my mind. It started with a glorious post on Vanity Fair , and has continued with a frantic search for my favorite photo of hers, that I have yet to find (if anyone knows it, its the one of the man hanging upside-down at Coney Island. There is a large crowd under him, including my best friend of the 1990's, Julie Wallack, and a friend (Britney), and Britney's father. The crowd is fixed on the performer. The photographer doesn't exist. And that's what I find so amazing about Annie L's work. Insert cliche sentences here. Blah blah blah. Fly on the wall. Natural. Vulnerable. Crux of the human. Etc. I chose a few faves to share. Hope you fall in love too. These pictures are worth at least a thousand of my words.
