Anna Leibovitz

On December 8, 1980,  Anna Leibovitz had a photo shoot with John Lennon for Rolling Stone, five hours later he was shot and killed.... I  am not telling you that is the reason i posted this, but it does add to the atmosphere of the photo. when you veiw the picture its screams out that John is fragile and vulnerable... for that fact alone i feel i should make reference

For the portrait Leibovitz imagined that the two would pose together nude. Lennon disrobed, but Ono refused to take off her pants. Leibovitz “was kinda disappointed,” according to Rolling Stone, and so she told Ono to leave her clothes on. “We took one Polaroid,” said Leibovitz, “and the three of us knew it was profound right away.” The resulting portrait shows Lennon nude and curled around a fully clothed Ono
