It was still early on that evening of the 17th of November, 1961, as my watch ticked off the seconds and I waited for her to arrive. My nerves were on a razor's edge. Imagine me waiting for... Marilyn Monroe.

I was within a breath's distance of the GODDESS.

Now it was just the two of us. Me with Marilyn Monroe, lying there ready to respond to my requests wearing nothing more than a silk sheet! I wasn't sure exactly what was expected of me. What was I supposed to do? I retreated behind my camera and started shooting again.

Then at a certain point she stopped and looked up and pleaded,"Why don't you come down here with me?"

这是关于梦露的一套图片，据称是摄影师道格拉斯四十年前拍摄的。包括摄影师的注释。

1961年11月17号晚，时间还早，时间一分一秒地过去，我等着她的到来。我的神经似乎游走在刀锋边缘。想象一下，我正等着玛丽莲-梦露。#此前在首页部分显示#

我离女神只有呼吸的距离。

现在，只有我们两个，我和玛丽莲-梦露。她躺在那儿，按我的要求准备着，除了一块绸子，身上什么也没穿。我不能确定我期待着什么，我该做些什么？我退后，开拍。

然后她停在某一点，仰天乞求，“你为什么不下来跟我在这里？”
