Thanks, le nubian.
I'm getting a lot better at letting go of crap that's outside of my control. The situation is stressful, but I'm recognizing when I get agitated and taking a break to calm down.
Meditation, man. I guess it works.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Thanks, le nubian.

Gah, someone's kicked a power cable somewhere and their IPS is beeping. Must strangle.
I love the picture of Dana here: [link]
Me too!
I am not sure if the stars look older because they are not made up, or if the tintypes make people look rougher than usual (meaning that maybe people didn't look so old at a young age in the olden days!)
shrift and sarameg, I'm sorry you're having less-than-stellar days.
Congrats, Dana!

Yeah, I didn't think the pictures were flattering. And maybe they weren't supposed to be. But they all kind of looked like zombies, to a lesser or greater extent. Except William Macy, who looked like a hobo.
Put William Macy in different clothes, and he'd be the perfect weatherbeaten pioneer subject of a tintype.
They weren't their usual Hollywood pretty, but they were incredibly compelling. And Elijah Wood, Nick Cave and (of all people) Flea seem to have absolutely ideal faces for tintypes; I wouldn't have been a bit surprised if the photographer had added a note at the end saying, "Oh, yeah, I threw those three in because I found them in a box of tintypes in someone's attic and they were such great vintage celebrity doppelgangers I couldn't resist."
Oh man, I think Flea is when I started thinking "They look like zombies!"
I guess I'm not a tintype gal.
Timelies all!
Weird thing happened. While I was using the treadmill, my left foot started feeling like it was asleep. Dunno if it was due to the muscle cramps/tightness in my left calf, but the foot feels normal now.

What can I say, I know how to pose.
