A Photo A Day For 6 Months: Day 134~ RRC: Hair



"Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair."

~Kahlil Gibran

Round Robin Challenge: Big Hairy Deal

Yep, that is indeed Harry Hamlin. I don't think I could find a better choice for the main photograph in a photo post about HAIR that to show you HARRY HAMLIN! I had a wonderful time meeting the actor, a couple years ago, when Alan and I sat in the studio audience of the now cancelled Bay Area afternoon talk show, 7 Live. I will save the details for another post of how and when I was able to capture this particular photo, trust me it's an interesting story. Stay tuned to my blog, I will post about meeting Harry Hamlin sometime in October. But for now, let me show you some of my very favorite "HAIR" subjects...

Give me a head with hair, long beautiful hair
Shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen
Give me down to there, hair, shoulder length or longer
Here baby, there, momma, everywhere, daddy, daddy

Hair, flow it, show it
Long as God can grow, my hair

~ Lyrics From "Hair"

People are really surprising me with what they've chosen as photos for this topic. I would never have thought of butterflies as being hairy, but you really make the case with your wonderful close ups. The horse's hair looks so soft that I long to pet it. And I love your self-portrait. Not bad at all!

This is a fun and beautiful blog. The butterfly/moth pictures are great!
There is a shelf full of heads in the cosmetology department at the college. Love it!
Cool lyrics too.
