KODACHROME.................

" They give us those nice bright colours........
                                ......makes you think all the world's a sunny day "

..........and if the early sixties were , to my mind at least , captured in black and white - ' The Seven Samurai ' , ' Alphaville ' ,  ' L'Avventura ' , Paris ,  Blue Note album photos , even the iconic images of the early Beatles - then by the mid sixties colour had arrived..............

............and Monica Vitti...................actress , icon ..............' L'Avventura ' , ' Il Deserto Rosso '........

....she's now 83...but some images never date.........below , as 'Modesty Blaise.'from 1966..........................

.......and maybe even resurface decades later having lurked in the subconcious .................................

but then , the original is still the best..........................even in black and white.................................
