A Brit a Day [#12]

Davy Jones was my first crush, but Graham Nash was my first crush with ideas about...you know...what we might do while we were lying on the Victorian couch in our big house in Laurel Canyon. I've already talked about this photographer here in my blog, Henry Diltz. Henry Diltz's pictures shaped my adolescence and my dreams. He took this one on the road to Big Bear for a photo shoot. Joni Mitchell was Graham's girlfriend at the time. Talk about a power couple.

Diltz's years photographing Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young were the same as my years of dreaming about Graham Nash and the big couch in the mansion in southern California, a place I would land in about 20 years. My couch isn't Victorian and my house is no mansion, but I got the most important part right--love, family, and a home in southern California.
