Making My Friend Famous

Using my influence I made my friend Shane friends with the Squad, the progressive first-term women in Congress.
Congresswomen Ilhan Omar and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Shane is far right.

Then using my time machine to project her back in time to Great Britain, she made a small group famous by advising them and going on walks with them. Here going to the recording studio on Abbey Road. At her request they did not use her image on the Abbey Road album cover.

Of course, the photos were not edited in any way.

Fun composite work, and The Beatles were a great choice! Says the lady from Maine who turned 13 years old the very February that The Beatles were on Ed Sullivan three Sundays in a row

Shane who has been living in the Far East for more than a year, on the way back to the USA went to London and had her photo taken on the Abbey Road crossing. I was honored when she came to stay with me for a few days. Seven years ago we met at the Tampa Bay Photo Museum and became go-on-shoot buddies.

Linda, I was 28 when you were 13. I recall a dear lady friend saying when I turned 25 "You're a quarter century old." Before long I will be a century old in 12.5 years.

When Elvis entered the room, music changed from sweet Patti Page "Doggy in the Window" mush to rasping nervous sounds. Eventually, "Elvis left the room," and the Beatles were more melodious, and we clung to every new album. One time I came across an album on discount by some nut called Bob Dylan. Eventually, amazed that Bob Dylan with his rasp and melodious Joan Baez were having an affair not just singing together. I learned to hear his words not the voice as music.

By the time I retired from industry and taught High-School [at 70 y old], I commented to an English class that Dylan was a great poet. My comment resounded and so perhaps from that recommendation, he became the poet laureate of the rock era and eventually won the Nobel Prize.

During my many years in industry as a tech guy, I attribute my success to my father who could like an old blacksmith make things from things, and Mr. Packard the English/Drama teacher in Highschool... I learned to take on different personas and be as Joe said, the "proficient trickster" ... fearful before stepping on stage and being in charge once at the podium. I did this many times in my career; the world is a stage in this UHH section visually.

NJFrank complimented me saying "I laughed when I viewed your Abby Road composite." Humor is the lubricant that is a universal tool for getting along with people, especially self. Freud said, to paraphrase, "There is truth in humor" I add "humor in truth."

Constructs in our photography require imagination just as constructs of new instruments or machines in the industry. Took me years to realize it was a special ability and not everyone had or would care to have. Linda named it well, "entertaining" madness. My daughter the psychologist says I have the "Imposter Syndrome" which is thinking that I am not the guy who can do the task given to me but doing it anyway. Just when comfortable with my being, I was promoted into a new discomfort zone.

I enjoy this group because we/they are creative and venture into the new.

Shane gets around, and seems at ease in any setting. An admirable quality.
