My favourite portrait of George, I think
George Harrison by Terry O'Neill, 1990
"I don't want to be in the business full-time, because I'm a gardener. I plant flowers and watch them grow. I don't want to go out to clubs and partying. I stay at home and watch the river flow."
Barry Feinstein's famous cover shot for George Harrison's 1970 album All Things Must Pass.
Here's another shot of George Harrison by Barry Feinstein. I've seen two dates for this: 1970 (during the All Things Must Pass shoot at Friar Park), and 1975 in Los Angeles. Either way, Feinstein captures something very personal about Harrison in spite of the formal pose.

Remembering Betty Hutton on her birthday πŸŽ‚
πŸ“· William Grimes, c. 1940

Betty Hutton & Eddie Bracken, with a big subset of Preston Sturges's stock company, in The Miracle of Morgan's Creek, 1943.
Here's one of the greatest of all movie cast photos, but there's unfortunately no photographer credit. Image
Betty Hutton & Eddie Bracken are superb in Preston Sturges's The Miracle of Morgan's Creek. Two great energetic performances, but both are touchingly vulnerable as well. One of the funniest scripts in Hollywood history. Image
