Greetings fans,
Since I was again offline for most of the last three days, I am very glad I got to see the images selected by MB to mark the August 7 anniversary. As fans of the Divine Grayson Hall will recall, this year marks the 20th anniversary of the date when we lost our lovely lady to the ultimate Dark Shadow--the scythe wielded by the Reaping Crone of Death. It's a very sad memorial for Grayson's fans, but these images are a fitting testimony to the artistic legacy she left, which includes many of her performances on Dark Shadows.
I particularly love the shots darling Mysterioso chose for the "front page" today--that's meant to be a grimace on "Miss" Hoffman's face but he caught it just at the moment when it looks more as if she is enjoying a romantic moment at the thought of "Mr Collins'" visit to her bedchamber--certainly a nice touch of foreshadowing here!
I also LOVE the shot of Julia and Barnabas from the Summer of 1970. It just captures the later phase of the two characters' relationship so well.
Not related to Grayson, but I have to say that I enjoy that picture of Quentin from '70 wearing THAT tie, too!
Thanks again to our cuddly, charming, cyberific Mysterious Benefactor for these treats!
G.
