That photo...

Hey, does anyone have any info on that "Initiate Me" photo of Morrissey? Photographer? Where it first appeared? Etc.? Any info would be most appreciated. Thanks.

Maybe I am mad, but I don't remember this photo. But it's ok. I'll get it over.

Be still my heart.

Is it just me, or does Morrissey's belly button look really, really high up on his abdomen?

It does! And where on earth have his nipples vanished to?

His nipples are (still) very northern too cough
