morrissey, so coy


yes, i wanted a little color, and i also wanted a little morrissey. this is a fine example of jean-lucien's video sharpshooting. this shot was taken from the video for the 1995 single 'dangenham dave.' it can be found on the highly recommended 'oye esteban' dvd. at first i didn't think i liked the song, but it grew on me. seriously, about 90% of his solo stuff is excellent. (in my opinion) if you've seen the video, you'll know that this shot was pretty hard to get. in the video, morrissey is walking (rather briskly) through a dimly-lit pub. jean-lucien managed to get one of maybe only three actually usable frames. just perfect. and jean-luc did the 'tricking' too. i just love it. i even used it for one of my few full-color notebook covers. i love the coy look on his face. and the grain is just silky and gorgeous. so dig his hot face, and if you happen across the video, dig on that, too.
