About Memories 3

Is this an “acceptable” end to my Memories story ?

As the conversation with my charming actress and bride got more serious she insisted to show me other parts of the house. We were full of our shared passion of photography and she would certainly show up another time after I gave her my name and details.
As we were sitting on the bed she looked into my eyes and softly proposed if I didn’t mind if she opened the window a bit. As she also said it was for showing me “La Mer”
I did not expect a more romantic proposal at that place at that moment so I just agreed with feeling some fresh sea breeze going through the house.
I didn’t actually notice if she came in by the open door or indeed by the window, but suddenly “her mother” stood in the sleeping room. “Quelle Déception” but I could not say any of these words when it happened.

I do not think any problème de language was the reason to break up. I could not file for divorce, as we were not married and not even having the plan. She was the actress and I was the photographer, so that was the situation and further nothing to quarrel about. That’s still our situation today.

Five minutes later I was outside again and watched the street theatre in which she played her role so brilliantly.
A talented actress with a bright future, but by all experiences of great tension I simply forgot her to ask her name and address. No worries I will not ask her for marriage as a detail in this picture shows she already decided for somebody else :-)
However if she tries to contact me again I’m leaving my mail address mail1.post2@yahoo.com to enable her to pick up the photo shoots. I can send them as jpegs but only to her, not to her mother :-), although she was also such a friendly actress and will play all further roles the way she likes.

Hope my temporary bride likes the shooting and alternative story.

Comments and criticism regarding the picture also welcome (yes I know the previous 2 were better :)

Note : A corrected "Hiding the cracks" version is already attached as a result of this. Thanks once more dear Jen. I appreciate.

Thank you dear Stan,
Now everything is perfect I have to confess what happened :
I actually started with a picture of my first wife Nicole Kidmann, all the rest is fake :-)

I used a professional morphing program to give her a facelift and Photoshop for everything else. Nobody would recognise her, next asked my neighbour for an appropriate mother-in-law, went to the museum to capture an old bed, chairs etc. and next all assembled it nicely to its present state.
I only forgot about the wall pictures and that was my trap. Cheating will always be punished in the end.
I'll do better next time,
cheers, Paul

Hi Jean again, I continue making other errors.
I was thinking at Jeanne d'Arc as I addresses my words to Jen or Jenneke :-)
Now I could not only satisfy you, hiding the cracks in the wall as a bonus, but I made myself impossible again. Sorry dear Jen.

Hi dear Jean,
thank you for willing to be my new temporary bride. Apparently nothing went wrong except for the painting, I agree with you, I was not perfect. I tried to better myself and ask you forgiveness in changing the laws of time and space and doing it all over meeting your highest expectations.
I hope you enjoy the result,
hugs and kisses,
Paul

Repositioning of Painting

Thank you for your comment and appreciation dear Harry. The bed was exactly the right small size otherwise it would have never fit into the frame.
cheers,
Paul

Salut Nicki,
merci de tes gentils mots et d'apprendre de ta perception de cette photo. Les expressions de visage c'est le résultat de la communication entre les personnes photographiées en pose et le photographe. J'en y apprends tous les jours.
Je t'embrasse, Paul

Almost thought you had found yourself a new bride my dear,
she looks beautiful and with the bed close and your mother in law, what could go wrong:)) Just think its a pity the painting hanging behind her head, but thats just a detail.
You did a great job on this one, thanks for the about,
hugs Jen

Congrats with your temporary marriage, with her mother I assume. I like the series Paul.

Table and chairs were a bit in the way on the previous shots, here they work ok. Isnt the bed to short for you ? ;-)

Au revoir !

Harry
