Ivana - you're very welcome. I've always had a bit of a soft spot for the Land of the Dead premiere pics, partly I think because it amuses me that he looks so different to the way he looked in the film.
sleepylover215 - you're right of course, there are unscrupulous people who will use the site that way, there already have been, that's one of the reasons I introduced the Friends group (the final straw was when someone was using an automated process to effortlessly download hundreds of photos - needless to say I blocked them immediately). As for watermarking, I'm keeping it in mind as a possibility for rare photos which have involved significant work, making an unwatermarked version available to a select few. Actually though, I'm not sure Simon's popularity will increase, I think he may be at his peak at the moment. Once The Mentalist finishes I think a lot of people will lose interest and things will be much quieter. |

Fran that is sad, but I think you are right....at the moment, he is in our living rooms weekly (thank goodness) but once he leaves TM and does his thing with films and the like.....whether it is in front of or behind the camera..... he wont be as in the public eye, so there will only be those of us who just like his work and admire his talents that remain. At the moment he is' making hay while the sun shines' and hopefully this will make it possible to do what he really loves and is interested in. |

Quote Mossibecca (  ) At the moment he is' making hay while the sun shines'
sorry, I know we´re talking serious here, but I had to smile about this saying because I didn´t know it and it just perfectly describes what, well, what is meant.
Thank you, Mossibecca, for putting this smile on my face!
(let the sun shine)

I wasn't sure if the saying was known in other countries, but I am glad that you liked it BBB....and yes now I have a vision of Simon wielding a scythe, making hay in the bright sunshine, on his farm in Oz.....now THAT'S a thought!!  |

Thanks Ivana & Tanja 
Part of being a celebrity I guess - you're having a nice time enjoying a rugby match and then you have to pose for a pic with a politician 
The Ben Watts photo prompted me to find a couple of others I hadn't got in the Gallery. |

You have right Fran it's a bit weird to see Simon with a politician |

I didn't know the "making hay while the sun shines" but my dad always says "cutting the oat as long as it's seasoned". And Simon is smart to do it now while he is so popular. I hope he still will be once TM is over, but I too think that a lot will not follow his career past TM because they only love him in this show.
I don't really like all his movies, but I just like this man so much that I will keep watching anything he will ever do in the future. He is a very special person and I don't only like him for his talent of acting but also for his personality. It comes all together why I am such a huge fan of Simon, not only his work. |

I agree with you @tinamarianne . I got to know about Simon in TM too. I watched already many of movies with him and not all are good. But for sure I'll love this man after TM too.
He is great as Jane in TM ! Thanks good friend I started to watch The Guardian and he is great as Nick. He is so talented, awesome and his personality shows him as one of us. He is simple and lovely man. Simon Baker forever!!! |
