It's probably one of the items I want the most - and still, how much time did it ever have on screen? Maybe 5-6 seconds combined? I've come back to this picture ever since I first saw it, such a nice little detail.
Too reminiscent of post-9/11 NYC memorial imagery that I never liked. And I'm from NYC... and yes, I know the whole premise of the New BSG is that it's an allegory for a post 9/11 world, but still. Didn't like it in NYC, and I don't like it here either.
I just noticed the photo on the wall in last night's ep (415)...and I don't think this version is the same one. The frame looked different and there was a small gold plate on the lower edge of the frame...whatever. I know their are usually multiple copies.
Oh my gods...I want, I want, I want!

ReplyDeleteBut apparently somebody wants it.
Auction just ended and it went for $2,650 to some lucky fan! (The bidding history shows a pretty intense battle at the end there!)
