Topic: Jake's pix

Closer still. You know with that sunlight on him the way it is, he does look absolutely beautiful. 

And those glimpses of his beautiful neck and body are to die for. 

Yes, the photographer is quite good at light effects, no?  Wonderfully done, IMO.  Very impressionistic.  LUX QUA LUX.

[tpe]

Jesus. He looks beautiful.  That look with the parted lips...   and this hairstyle does things to me..

The light gives his face an almost statuesque feel.  It is like hewn out of living marble.  There is a hardness and softness to his face -- simultaneously.  Hard to pin it down exactly.

I don't think u have to be a proffesional photographer to make that man look good .. but I agree tpe

[tpe]

Yeah, I know he will, I can't wait for his reactions! 

OK. The last one....you know I'm tempted to turn them all black and white and keep playing with the sizes etc., but I think if I don't stop now, you may all shoot me!

So this is it. But you know I can't wait until this pic surfaces in it's original form. It can't be too long surely. And this is a truly lovely pic. The thought that we are going to be getting more and more pics of Jake this month while he promotes Rendition is making me dizzy with anticipation... His look at the moment is just so SERIOUSLY BEAUTIFUL, SEXY, HOT, just EVERYTHING. 

Rosie, thank you so much.  These pix have made my day.

Perfectly said, Esme!

  I know this is Jake's thread, but I couldn't help thinking of Jack so many times in those pics! The settings, the images, everything. 

Yes, there is a real echo of Jack Twist in the "axe" pic, no? 

[tpe]

Okay, that's it. Next time I see him, I'm touching him. Lord have mercy.

Smiles, we should build up some courage to do this!

I love that little gap in his shirt. Like someone grabbed it and just let go. OMG. I just posted these pics on my LJ. I love them so much.

I love that his hair cut here is the same as for Toronto. I'm going downtown tomorrow for work (not far from THE JAKE ENCOUNTER actually) and will check some of the big magazine/news stores for it. 

Yes, this is why I think the interview and the pix were done just right before Toronto. 

[tpe]

I'm done!  Holy mother of God he is just incredible! How do these people stand there and take pics like this?! I'd be on the ground laying next to the shattered camera. 

 

[tpe]

Holy sh*t!  There's those lips!  One of the best lips pic to date!

I think a number of us have commented independently on the lips. 

[tpe]

OK....I don't need much encouragement...

Black and White....

Amazing that the pic retains much of the exquisite shading in B & W...

[tpe]

You know, I think this looks fantastic in black and white too...it's just a fantastic picture! 

WOW!

[tpe]

First one, looking at you, Thomas, when you asked him to sign the shirt?  Second one, looking at the shirt to decide where to sign?  Third one, signing.

This is still so incredible!

kathy

I think you got the chronology exactly, kathy! 

[tpe]

Oh but you did survive, though your feet probably weren't exactly on the ground.  Not only survived, but looked so beautiful, as we see just two seconds later when Johnny got his pic with Jake.

Okay, so I've only known you here these past 1.5 years or so, but knowing your serious passion for Jake...did you ever really think you would have such a perfect encounter??  I always hoped you would (or any of us, but especially you), but it's like, yeah, right, when can he ever be able to get that close to him?  But it all happened -- he was drawn to come to his fans...and drawn to come to you...  You are brilliant for bringing the shirt.

kathy

Hello kathy.  No, up to the last minute I wasn't expecting anything but perhaps catching a glimpse of him.  We had seen Peter Sarsgaard skip the barricades, so I thought that it was getting late and that they would be rushing the cast through the red carpet.  I may have survived, but I'm still up in the air after more than 2 weeks!

The first person to suggest that I have the shirt signed by him was actually Rosie, when I told her privately that I was going to bring the shirt with me to Toronto.  So I guess the kudos belong to her, for putting this into my mind...

[tpe]

But he gave it the "gravity" or respect appropriate for that moment.  Not like it was a bit ha-ha smile moment, but a very special moment shared with you.

kathy

I think you're right in this one Rosie.  He could have made a flippant remark or something, but he didn't.  He was quite serious.  I would like to think that it was also spexcial for him!

[tpe]

I'm so glad you did this!  But maybe crop it so his face is bigger?

kathy

Smiles was the one who got this pic for me, so maybe I can ask her or LG sometime, if they have time. 

[tpe]

But I'm tripping out extra because I had a dream about Jake last night, so seeing these pix gives me a...funny feeling.

kathy

kathy, THANK YOU so much for sharing that dream.   

[tpe]

You HAVE to watch these

Twisted, I will have to check out these clips after work!  Thank you.
