With apologies to both Man Ray and Ray-ban.
The illustration explains all.

I love it. Now, what can you do for me with Bill Brandt and Jan Saudek? |
|
| |
So...they make you look like Liza Mineli? |
|
| |
How about Man-Ray-Bansai Kittens? |
|
| |
[xenzag], that site won't let the link through. I love Jan Saudek's work. |
|
| |
curious - works fine for me... try http://
www.saudek.com then search under
year 1974 for "Marie No 1", it's about
the tenth photograph |
|
| |
It's working fine now. So I could wear that instead of lip balm. |
|
| |
You're going to find Bill Brandt a bit of a challenge. I love his wide angle work. |
|
| |
....well I'd be thinking of you, with a
large apple hiding your face, holding
the image in the last link, in both
hands, in imitation of the pose
contained within the photograph. |
|
| |
You'll need your Philip Glasses for reading music, though. |
|
| |
Also good for blinding winter sun.

Interestingly, the owners of Ray-Ban, an Italian company called Luxottica have largely sewn-up the sunglasses market. So if you see
sunglasses marketed under any of the names below, they actually all originate from the same place: |
|
| |
Alain Mikli, Arnette, Eye Safety Systems (ESS), Oakley, Oliver Peoples, Persol, Ray-Ban, Sferoflex, Vogue Eyewear, Giorgio Armani,
Brooks Brothers, Bulgari, Burberry, Chanel, Coach, Dolce & Gabbana, DKNY, Michael Kors, and Miu Miu. |

Interesting from a monopoly perspective - that a single company can control so many different brands, and maintain an illusion of
competition. |
