In Utero?[edit]

"Her subjects are extremely idealized; babies in her photographs are almost always sleeping or staring into space, as if still in utero."

I think this is also something babies commonly do: sleep or stare blankly into space. I don't think that's necessarily a feature that is endemic to fetuses. Valley2city 07:45, 28 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Cannabis users frequently sleep or stare into space too. Perhaps mention of that could be included in the article. 69.63.55.224 (talk) 03:36, 31 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Her idealized pictures are what is polarising so many people. Whoever removed that sentence should bring it back, because this is on of the main features of her pictures (wich i don't like btw..) -- ME —Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.88.233.19 (talk) 12:28, 28 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Still lives in New Zealand?[edit]

According to her website biography, she and Kel now live in Sydney.

"Anne and Kel reside in Sydney, Australia, and have two daughters. The Geddes Group maintains offices in Sydney; Auckland, New Zealand, and Seattle in the United States."

Her page on the iGoogle Showcase also suggests that she is mainly based in Australia now. She explains having an Australian Newspaper widget on her iGoogle page because:

"To keep in touch with Australia when I travel from home."

I suspect, given that she has offices in three countries, that they may have homes in more than one country. The blurb on her 2007 autobiography states:

"Anne and her husband, Kel, divide their time between New Zealand and Australia".

Anyone know what the actual situation is? -- BigBadaboom0 (talk) 18:58, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sections anyone?[edit]

This article seriously needs to be broken into sections. Plus Anne Geddes creeps me out. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.235.212.111 (talk) 00:56, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Pronunciation[edit]

Is it any of the following?

geh-DEZ
geh-DES
GEH-dez
GEH-des
gehdz
