Leslie Ditto







These are some of the beautiful paintings by Leslie Ditto an artist from Memphis, Tennessee. She likes to express her ideas and emotions through her paintings and tries to bring her audience into her emotional state. Her work has a sense of bewilderment, and surrealism that draws the viewer in xoxoxo









Shirley Ross........what a Betty

Kusköy, Turkey - the whistling village | European Journal


I remember seeing a documentary on these people a year ago and I fell so in love with them, considering I can not whistle at all I even have dreams about them!!! xoxoxo

Guy Bourdin





























Bourdin was the first photographer to create a complex narrative, then snatch a moment — sensual, provocative, shocking, exotic, surrealistic, sometimes sinister — and simply associate it with a fashion item. The narratives were strange and mysterious, sometimes full of violence, sexuality, and surrealism. Bourdin was influenced by his mentor Man Ray, photographer Edward Weston, the surrealist painters Magritte and Balthus, and film maker Luis Buñuel. Even though much less well known to the public than his colleague Helmut Newton (also working for Vogue), Bourdin possibly has been more influential on the younger generations of fashion photographers.







Guy Bourdin was a short man with a whiny voice, and had a reputation of being incredibly demanding. Dark rumours surrounded him: his mother abandoning him as an infant, the suicides of his wife and two of his girlfriends, and the cruelty in which he treated his models.[5]
[edit] Since his death
Bourdin was not a natural self-promoter, and did not collect his work or make any attempt to preserve them; in fact he refused several offers of exhibitions, rejected ideas for books, and wanted his work destroyed after his death (but since he didn’t keep so much of his work for himself, fortunately most of it was saved).[2] The first major book devoted to his work was Exhibit A (mentioned above), released ten years after his death.[1]
Madonna's 2003 music video for Hollywood was greatly influenced by the photography of Bourdin, so much so that a lawsuit was brought on against her by Bourdin's son for copyright infringement.[citation needed]
Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, Jean Baptiste Mondino, Nick Knight and David LaChapelle have admitted to be great admirers of his work.[citation needed]
A documentary program, Dreamgirls: The photographs of Guy Bourdin, was shown for the BBC in 1991. Fashion photographers like Helmut Newton and Jean-Baptiste Mondino talked about how Bourdin managed his own way to do fashion photography.[citation needed]

DeZurick Sisters-First Whippoorwill Song WHATCH I LOVETHEM SOOOO MUCH


Lords Stompy played their c.d for me last night and I am awe struck they are like little birds no one does it like this anymore!!!!!Carolyn and Mary Jane DeZurik, farm girls from Royalton, Minn., perfected and raised the bar for American yodelers, appearing on radio shows, including the Grand Ole Opry, as the Cackle Sisters
Cackle Sisters came along during a period when most yodeling was done by traveling minstrel shows, featuring male singers in blackface doing racist parodies.
The yodeling perfected by the DeZuriks was much more than falsetto. Among their talents were complex imitations of animal sounds. "We listened to the birds and tried to sing with the birds," Carolyn DeZurik recalled many years later.
