opera

I was in an opera mood today and wanted to give a flavor of it in the black top hat, the white gloves, the rose, etc. Of course now days people are so casual that some don't dress up at all. But people used to get in their fancy evening wear and go out looking their best.

I was also playing around with type samples and wanted to match the kind of type faces I thought might represent the composer which is why there are so many variations.

And maybe this is too much, but I couldn't resist the urge to throw in the Viking helmet cliche worn so often by beefy women who have the voice capacity to shatter glass and ear drums.

Opera is sensational!
