A picture is worth a thousand words. So, let's allow some photos to inspire us!

The premise of this collection is to take photographs of Queen (Et al.) and use them as a starting-off point for creativity. Whether a photo inspires you to write a drabble, a ficlet, a vignette, a poem, a multi-chapter fic, a dialogue, a screenplay, etc. or to draw, sketch, or paint, then feel free to post the photograph that inspired you along with your creation into this collection.

The goal is to inspire each another to create!

Queen & wearing merchandise, pt.1: See Factor

(Photo credits: Brian May / Queen in 3D; QUEEN TIMES vol 4 Japan Fanzine Book, 1975; Koh Hasebe / Music Life magazine, 1975; Lee Black Childers / Rock Scene magazine, 1975.)

Queen members and crew were photographed wearing See Factor merchandise in Japan in 1975.

See Factor is a New York-based rental company, providing e.g. audio, lighting, staging & rigging services for production and touring.

^This See Factor -sponsored shirt for Foghat's '76 tour has the exact same design as the shirts the Queen crew are wearing in '75. I couldn't find an example of the shirt Roger and John were photographed wearing, but the logo design is exactly the same, just with inverted colours.

I'd love to know if Queen made a sponsor deal with them, or if they just received merch from the company. They seem happy enough to wear the shirts, either way!

1965 - What a year for Roger!

(In which I invite you to write fic about that time Roger's official girlfriend possibly tried to beat up his unofficial girlfriend. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

January - Roger joins "Johnny Quale and the Reactions". He is fifteen, about two years younger than his band mates. (Source: Queen in Cornwall)

February - Roger starts dating Eileen Wright after meeting her at a Reaction concert in Falmouth. She recalls their relationship as quite chaste, and him as a "very gentle person" and not "a raunchy bloke". (Source: Queen - The Early Years). It must be true, because Roger remembers that his first proper kiss happened only with the next girl he started dating, Jill. (Source)

Aww, you might think, that doesn't sound like the ladies' man Roger the fandom knows and loves! Is it all just rumours? Er, well... read on.

March - Johnny Quale and the Reactions come fourth in the Rock and Rhythm championship of Cornwall. Roger is voted Best Musician. (Source) Which I think is actually really impressive for the youngest member of a group and the drummer, at that. Bet he did some impressive singing while drumming.

May - Roger meets Jill Johnson at a concert. She's a singer with a folk band and a year younger than him (which makes her fourteen). "Roger was sitting next to us in the back row and we left together. It was that night, or the next, that he took me to the local funfair [...]. And I believe the next night I went to one of his gigs with him. From then on it was a pretty regular thing." Not an exclusive thing though. "I knew one or two girls that he was involved with. One tried to beat me up at a dance in Falmouth!" (Source: Queen in Cornwall) Wait, did she say Falmouth? :O Eileen?!?

This is pure speculation, I have no idea whether it was Eileen. But if it was, I have a feeling Eileen was not, in fact, aware of any of the other girls. Because whoever tried to beat up Jill probably was under the impression that Roger was very much taken and exclusive with them!

September - Johnny Quale leaves The Reaction after a fight over whether they should play a gig when there is an Elvis film being screened at the same time, as you do. (Source: Queen in Cornwall)

And so, just over half a year after he joins a group where everyone is older than him, Roger pretty much becomes their drummer/lead singer. Picture the ecstatic, cocky grin. Picture it.

October - Roger goes to see The Who in concert. According to Eileen (who is still his girlfriend!? Have they kissed yet? Who knows!) Roger tries to catch Keith's drumsticks and "walked out of the concert on cloud nine". (Source: Queen - The Early Years)

Christmas - The Reaction play at a school dance (source: Queen in Cornwall) and Eileen breaks up with Roger. (Source: Queen - The Early Years)

Oh dear. Did someone finally tell Eileen about the other one or two girls? Ah, well. Roger doesn't look too broken up about it. (The picture is from the school dance.)

Hey, Ratty book buyers! :-D

Oops, let's try that again. Those of you who bought Peter Hince's new book...have you received it? And if so, are there tons of new pics to salivate over????

I've seen (and salivated over) some new Brian ones (my sweet, sweet guitar god love), but I haven't seen anything else pop up -- not that I've seen anyway.

Slap that knowledge on me, folks!

step into the daylight and let it go- (stucky fic)

Two age-old lovers, a strawberry farm and "the soft epilogue that they deserve".

There will always be grief and pain and guilt. The past will always come knocking on the door, the darkness waiting to engulf them both. But not inside this cottage by the sea. Not with fresh flowers in the vase and pencilled sketches lying about on every table. Not with the hand-picked strawberries and plums and raspberries. Not with the fruit pies, old recipe books, and slow mornings and hands that always find each other. Not with Bucky, a soldier turned lover, who grows fruits in his backyard, and bakes delicious desserts. Who tastes like strawberries and feels like home.
