When I get to the bottom, I go back to the top of the slide....



Photos taken by Linda (Eastman) McCartney

  1. I often wonder if Paul felt an extra positive thing towards Linda because he knew that she would endlessly photograph him and it stroked his ego? Have thought about this for years. I don't think that Jane photographed him like this at all.

    1. his ego was absolutely stroked with all the photographs and being told that he was The Beatles

  2. If that was a huge issue to him, he would not have stayed with Jane for as long as he did.

  4. All I can say is "Thank you, Linda." If Linda was a painter there would be a far different reflection from those years in their life. Or another art form, far less visible than photos.
    Jane was busy being photographed herself, and has never seemed all that interested in expressing herself that way.

    1. Jane took an interest in directing at some stage, I believe. I've seen photos of her behind the camera. Paul took photos of Jane as evidenced in Eye of the Storm. I'd say she also took photos of Paul but kept them personal.
