dangermousieSo, I thought it would be fun to find out.
What is your favorite icon, who/what is in it, and why is it a fave? If you have three icons or over a hundred, is there a favorite?
Mine is most likely this:
It's actually one of my oldest icons, as I get quite fickle, but I've had this one for a looong time.
It is Dao Ming Si and Shan Cai, the OTP of a Taiwanese drama Meteor Garden, which is an adaptation of a Japanese manga revolving around a really strong-willed and socially dysfunctional rich boy and even more strong-willed and utterly plucky poor girl.
Why do I love it so? I love the colors, and I am very fond of shots of people's backs (it is always a little mysterious and keeps you guessing), and the muted but vibrant tones set off by the pink of her bag. It's also one of the rare purely quiet and joyful moments for the OTP.
But I mainly love it because it's a very romantic yet anonymous image. Just a young couple in love, strolling. And that is why the backs thing is so cool: it strips it of being particular characters, in a sense. They could be anyone anywhere. Tall guy, short girl, nice morning and young love.
Your turn. In replies or your own lj. No, not tagging anyone but invite everyone :)
