Re: Favourite Sherlock/Benedict pictures
Oh, please don't mention that one, Susi, makes me all twitchy...!
Holding hands isn't so bad, either, by the way:

Re: Favourite Sherlock/Benedict pictures
I fully agree, Susi. They are both totally different types of guys, but in those differences they complement each other so perfectly... they just look so great together!

This would be a good image to accompany madlori's "Performance In a Leading Role" fanfic. Beautiful. Mr. and Mr. Watson-Holmes. *smile* Or is it Holmes-Watson? Whichever.

Brilliant idea. I was also reminded of a wedding pic.

Oh that one in B&W. Didn't know it. The feelings...
And are they really holding hands in front of that Chinese restaurant or is this just an "effect"?
And I've already posted this one here but it remains a favourite of mine:

That's definitely too much at this time of day, Punch me.
Benedict pointing again, his favourite gesture.
As for your question: I fear it is an optical illusion or a manipulation.

This has been photoshopped, I presume, Ben's face substituted for whoever it was originally. Even the hand looks wrong to be Ben's.

That's actually what I've been asking myself about the b/w pic, too...
