Oh What a Beautiful Morning!
Bet you didn’t know that once Captain Pike and Vina were living in paradise for a few years they started a virtual theater group to stave off boredom! (Broadcasting directly from Talos IV!)*
I loved making this. It started when I came across this image of Vina talking and she looked like she was singing. Her pink gingham shirt reminded me of the purple gingham dress Laurie wears in Oklahoma! I was gladly able to change the pink to lavender using the hue/saturation key on Photoshop. Immediately I had to find a good ‘singing’ picture of Pike in the same scene, and fortunately there it was with Pike staring off in the distance. 🙂 I borrowed Gordon Macrae’s cowboy hat and scarf from this image, and it all gelled together perfectly!
*If you’ve never seen Oklahoma!, you can read all about it here, and read this very funny review here.
Just to check, have you seen this Nimoy pic?

Your link didn’t show up here on the main page, but I did see it in my comment section; and yes, I did see that great pic of Leonard! In fact, I believe I posted it here in a previous MWS.

It appears that links are not showing up here in the comment section (at least not publicly) I’ll have to check into that.
Hee! They look perfect in “Oklahoma!”
Loved that Pike/Vina poster, I linked to it on my blog entry here: http://mystartrekscrapbook.blogspot.com/2015/02/1894-sttmp-special-edition-article.html
I’m honored! And you know I’m a fan of your blog too! Thanks! :-
