Henley Heaven: The Don Henley Photo Thread

Don looks cool and kind of relaxed in this photo, which I like. I also like the Twilight Zone T-shirt.

Thanks everyone for the gorgeous pictures - Love!

A lady on fb went to one of Don's shows a few weeks ago and took a photo of him - I think he must have been singing the last 'love' in Desperado but you can see the passion and emotion he put into it. Anyway, I loved it so much and had a bit of free time so decided to sketch it.

You never disappoint with your drawings of Don, DD! I love how you captured the emotion on his face while singing, especially the closed eyes. I don't draw as well as you at all, but drawing the eyes is always hard for me due to trying to get the symmetry right.

Little inside tip RCF, if you have a photo of someone you're trying to sketch, turn it upside down and follow the contours of the eyes, mouth, nose etc. It means that you won't be distracted by what you THINK the face should look like (I know that Don is very distracting) which is why I turn it upside down. Try it and see what you think

That is gorgeous, DD. I am so envious of your talent. Your suggestion of turning a picture upside down make a lot of sense. I don't guess it would work too well if you were drawing a live person though. The mental image is hilarious ... I can just see it now - you are drawing Don, and ask him to stand on his head for a little while so you can get his eyes right.

[DivineDon]

Well, 'Dreamer I might get Don to stand on his head....but I might not be drawing him!!!!

DD, beautiful drawing! You're so talented. I have trouble with stick figures!

Today's my third anniversary with the The Border. I'm so glad I found this board. I enjoy coming on here everyday. I finally saw my first Eagles related show and now I'm ready to see Don in January.

Here's my favorite pictures of Don. I borrow the first one from the picture section. I hope that's ok.
