qos: (Elizabeth Shhh)
I interrupt my all-too-serious-and-stressed-and-sad-lately chronicle of life for this fangirl moment.

Cate Blanchett is reprising her role as Elizabeth I in Elizabeth: The Golden Age,
which will be released on October 12th.

Geoffrey Rush is returning in his role as Walsingham, and Clive Owen is playing Sir Walter Raleigh.

qos: (Default)
My default userpic -- which I don't use very often on actual posts or comments -- is a cropped version of the Queen of Swords card from the Robin Wood Tarot. This has been my default image the entire time I've been on LJ, even though I have a large and constantly updated collection of icons.

Recently I found this icon, made by [livejournal.com profile] popehippo from an image by fantasy artist Stephanie Law:


She's also a Queen of Swords, but in a whole different key. Perhaps one better suited to who I am right now: more flowing than I was, more daring to be brightly-colored and dramatic, but not losing my grip on my sword of reason and discernment.

On the other hand, the original image connects very directly to a well-known tool and symbol set which are very important to me, and I've had people visit my journal primarily because they recognize the image and it has meaning to them.

So here's a poll, so you can contribute to my decision-making:
