#photo archive ask

[thatsrightice]

I love looking through the huge digitized photo collections on the 100th Bomb Group’s website. I’m not usually looking for anything in particular, but I love coming across all kinds of pictures.

So if anyone is looking for pictures of something in particular, let me know because it would be my absolute PLEASURE to look for you. Like seriously you’d be doing ME a favor. It can be specific or it can be vague, like here’s some examples.

There’s silly ones (the stick placement on this one is key):

Seriously beautiful, like absolutely stunning ones:

Just general pictures of the base that most people might not have any interest in, but I find just so incredibly fascinating:

Here’s an aerial view of the hospital:

And the on base dentist office:

I especially love the candid pictures, like pictures of the boys just living life:

So if you’re looking for something, send me an ask or a private msg and I’ll try to find pictures for you!!!

Or if you’re not looking for anything, send me an ask anyway and I’ll surprise you with one of my favorite pictures I’ve stumbled upon :)

Posting here because I, quite frankly, fear the short Jon anon.

I picture Jon as being average height and the perception of how tall he is changes based on the context. Like:

season 5 monster Jon: 5’8 is tall

While being kidnapped: 5’8 is short

(Not in a magic way but in a his demeanour makes him look smaller/bigger depending on the situation way.)

Oh this is fun as hell. I like short Jon a lot but this is rly fun

Jon, during college, going into a small coffee shop to order a drink: hi can I get a-

Martin, the barista who is a giant fan of the mechanisms and has seen them play live like three times already and has a minor crush on Jonny DeVille: are you Jonny DeVille?

Jon, his hands going up to his hips in pride: I- yes, yes I am :)

Martin, is visibly shaking from excitement desperate to ask for a photo but hates the idea of being an annoyance for asking: cOOL

Hiiiiiiii <3

Could you possibly please reply with a few of your favourite photos that you've found on the 100th's website? Thank you so muchhh :)

Okokokokok I’m so excited to share these because a lot of them are so good.

I love these three so much because they feel like they were taken by professional photographers. Like these are computer wallpapers someone made or images you’d see in a calendar. Literally stunning.

This picture feels staged. I’ll say it a lot with these pictures, but the composition is so good it’s insane. It’s giving Top Gun with the sunglasses (which is maybe why I like it?) but I just think this belongs in a gallery or something.

This feels like a renaissance painting. Like actually. The painting in the background definitely helps, but it’s giving Knights of the Round Table vibes, you know? I love this picture so so so much.

It’s how the man on the left has his arm draped around his shoulder, resting on the middle man’s chest. With how the middle man is holding the newspaper while leaning back into the embrace, we can tell that this is just so natural for them. It looks like they’ve been sitting like this for hours and could be sitting like that for hours more. And the middle man is poking the man on the right, who is also leaning back against the man in the middle, maybe to show him something he saw in the newspaper? It’s just so intimate, and I’m soooo happy for them even if it is entirely platonic.

A very candid shot. Makes me feel like we were robbed of a volleyball montage a la Top Gun. I feel like Buck and Bucky would be a killer in duos or maybe a trio with Biddick as their setter? Anyway, I just enjoy pictures of the boys living their lives and enjoying themselves, because who knows how many of them made it home.

It’s silly and goofy and fun. It may just be the fact that I tend to sit everywhere but in an actual chair, but I think that looks like a very comfy spot to sit. I’m not sure why I like it so much, I just do :)

The composition of this picture is pure gold. I’m specifically referring to the way the empty chair in the middle is slightly askew and paired with how candid it feels, it’s amazing. Photographers could spend ages trying to stage photos that look like this and still not get it right. It may seem boring but pictures like this are my favorite.

Of course I need to include one of my boy, Croz. He’s not in a lot of pictures in the later years of the war which makes this one pretty special in my opinion. You can tell that he’s such a central figure in navigation without knowing who he is, like you just know that he’s the guy™️. I love this picture so much, it’s my go-to when I talk about the impact he made on the 100th BG.

On Louis being a snob (per the post you reblogged) and your tags - easily the funniest thing to me about Lestat taking Louis to the opera is that for Lestat, a 1700s man, opera was literally just popular entertainment and in no way highbrow. Like. He did the cultural equivalent of bringing Louis to a Taylor Swift concert. And it happened to work out because the status of opera changed a lot over time and now Louis gets to do something elitist haha

Yes!! I feel like surely Lestat had to know that opera was highbrow by the 1910s though, right, haha.

It's actually such a funny thing because one of the original novels I'm working on is set in the Australian performing arts scene during 1910 (it's kind of roughly set around Houdini's tour of Australia that year, but more specifically set around The Tivoli Circuit which was this string of intensely popular variety venues that would just do the wildest mix of acts), and I'm sure it was pretty different in the US, but knowing what was like, the really popular entertainment at the time - at least here - was comedy song-and-dance acts, minstrel shows, shows involving live animals (a lot of women snake dancers and a lot of men performing with monkeys), spiritualists and acrobats is just - - wild to me.

I spent a couple of months last year getting to work in the Australian Performing Arts archives and it was pretty awesome, and look this is barely related to your ask and probably only fun for me, haha, but have some pictures of this era of performance in Australia from the archives:

And don't forget, of course, all your stage career options! Comedian! A Serio and Dancer! Or a Dancer of Any Kind! Conjurer! Juggler! Contortionist or a Biograph Operator!

I love history, hahah.
