The third picture is so beautiful! The Aurora Borealis picture is gorgeous too. Of course, all the ladies you picked are lovely too. Beautiful choices. Happy MM!

Stellar beauties both! Happy MM

Heh, good one, Kate. Stellar, indeed. What fascinates me most about fifties celebrity photography is that despite the high gloss of it, you still felt you were looking at real faces with personalities behind them. Today, most celebrity faces, despite some of their very real beauty, seem so opaque.

Happy MM!

Lovely pictures all...I always love both the Hepburns...one for her beauty and the other for her fire. Happy MM!

Empyrean beauties all.

How fortunate that we may we bathe in the brilliance they bring to us

Hey all ya'll!

Thang is, about the stellar humans is that this was afore the days of the remake--or mostly. So when ya' look at these women the only foolin' around was wif' face paint, maybe a little revlon in the hair.

Anywho, Uncle wants ya'll to know that them ladies is all his type--well mebbe Audrey is a tad slim fer his highest rating, but he wants credit fer the second half of the Beauty theme.

No photoshopping or airbrushing for any of these beauties... but those space shots literally take my breath away.

Johanne said...

You summed it all!
Happy MM!

Aunty Belle said...

She-pup, heh, well, that first woman is Ursula Andress, Uncle's most favorite blond (Sophia bein' most favored brunette).

Yep Foamy, pretty soon, Uncle will need his own gig. But he was a wee problem--he doan nuthin' about computers--like a fair number of fellas, he is used to jes' tellin' some woamn what he needs done--a mama, a wife, a secketary, a daughter....
