Favourite "Sherlock" Pictures, etc.

[T.o.b.y]

Oooh, black and white is fantastic. That is art. Hmmm... one of these days, I will break my "no posters of people on them" house rule and put up a few Sherlock things.

 

Well, if you guys don't mind, I've got plenty more. Found an online treasure chest and am having a blast with good music on my headphones, chocolate in my mouth and the world wide web. If I do have to work until midnight, at least relaxing afterwards is all the nicer...

 

Here's another one of those Baker St pics where the light comes in through the windows and I wish I could paint stuff like that...

 

 

Oh, and here's my favorite shot of Mrs Hudson:

And oh my GOD:

 

[Ruthyone]

....not sure what's happening here!

[Bakerstreet Irregular]

Kind of looks like a Photoshop job.

[Arcadia]

Looks like they're being their usual selves!

Here's a nice Mark Gatiss pic............

I do so like the color scale in The Great Game. It's all very muted and dark and grey... Appeals to me more than the brightness of A Scandal in Belgravia, or The Sign of Three.

 

I always thought of the bright colors in ASiB and TSoT as sort of the 'calm before the storm', meaning TRF and HLV respectively.

Like one of my all time favorite Sherlock moments.

I will not capslock about this gif because that is not proper forum behavior but oh my god he's so pretty

I'm sad today, let's look at pictures...

 

Here's a good start:

 

 

I can't say I really like the mustache, but it makes John really, really look like Watson. I so wish they'd have dressed the actors up in period clothing as the original characters while it was still on him, and taken a few pictures. I'd use them as alternative illustrations for my Complete Sherlock Holmes...

 

And this one would be the corresponding image of Mr Holmes:

 

 

Come to think of it, these two are really kind of timeless looking. And I really hate the "official" illustrations. And it's my own goddamn book, I can do what I like with it. Hmmm... printer, scissors, glue...

Oh, here's a nice one of Mary. I love how she bites her finger when she's amused.

I found another gif of Sherlock that I watched for about 1249876538 loops before sharing it with you guys.

This was the first episode I ever saw. I watched it because Martin Freeman was in it. I'm pretty sure right about here is when I started screaming "Who IS this guy?!?!?!!"

One is allowed to use all-caps for emphasis, as long as it's only OCCASIONALLY. 

 

(And just a word or few at a time.)

Oh, but just one more. Because this is one of my favorite shots. It's very artistic, isn't it? Could be a painting...

 

 

I do so like the color scale in The Great Game. It's all very muted and dark and grey... Appeals to me more than the brightness of A Scandal in Belgravia, or The Sign of Three. Those are great episodes, but I always feel that the world is "wrong" with all those brilliant hues. I feel a kind of relief when they both turn dark, visually speaking, at the end.

 

There is something more earthy and grounded in the color scale for The Great Game. Suits the episode well. Wish I had more appreciation for the visual effects, though. I mean, I love them, but I don't always notice them, even after rewatching the episodes again and again.

Speaking of black-and-white:

 

 

Sherlock and his violin always make a great duo.

 

And I just love this:

 

[sherlockandjohn]

Lovely colorful one, and I always like the serious look on Sherlock's face:

 

[Carol the Dabbler]

Oh -- right -- Sherlock is in there too, isn't he?

 

[sherlockandjohn]

Aw, all of a sudden I feel bad for John. And Martin Freeman. I know we focus too much on the taller guy. So here is one of my favorite takes of John:

 

 

Downright adorable! Makes me melt. And smile!

[sherlockandjohn]

Hehe!

 

[Ruthyone]

[sherlockandjohn]

Oh, yes, Ruthy. That is a classic take on the crime solving duo!

Yeah... That's pretty hot!! Which episode was this?

[jesskayding]

Wish I had heterochromia.
