This was the only idea I could think of for this challenge. There isn't very much that is "James Bond-ish" in my life! If it hadn't been for my Team 30D I wouldn't have bothered at all. However, I still don't have anything for Life or Death so at least this is something for the week.
This is my recreation of one scene from Live and Let Die - they didn't have the movie to rent in our little video store in La Jara so I looked on the internet and found this clip. This is a scene where James Bond (Roger Moore) is playing with the tarot cards and puts three of them on the table. Solitaire (Jane Seymour) comes running out of another room and tells him it's blasphemy for him to touch her cards. He says the cards have told him they are to be lovers - the cards he put on the table are The Chariot; The Fool and The High Priestess (all major arcana). He spreads the cards in his hand and tells her to draw one - she pulls a card and puts it on the table. It is The Lovers. She looks at him in amazement.
Of course, I didn't have the exact Tarot Deck used in the film but this one is fairly close - it has red backs anyway, like the one in the movie and the illustrations are similar.
Editing: Crop and rotate slightly; adjustment layers for levels and selective color; flatten; resize; select only front card for sharpening; smart sharpen; unselect; save for web.
