I guess you have to be a member of the Facebook group to see it. The group is called Prince Army.

Yeah uploading photos to Imgur is the best way to share them really, a lot of people don't use facebook anymore.

I thought the last picture of Prince was at the party at Paisley Park - I can't remember the name of the photographer, but he wasn't going to take his camera because of restrictions and then snapped one with his cell phone. It is of Prince on stage, backlit with what looks like an orange V behind him

with his right arm raised in the air.

I can't find it - it was here earlier in the week but he stated that several mag outlets have been after him to use it.

His photographer said this is one of the last couple of frames she ever took of him, just days before. She only took 2 or 3 shots.

.

She said something was different about him, he seemed more grateful and thankful, and quiet. I think she said they were in a hotel room (possibly Atlanta? but I forget). The article was posted here, I think.

.

Dr. Funkenberry posted it on his Instagram as well once the photo came out.

Credit for this photo is Justine Walpole, a Goldcoast-based, Australian photographer. I lived Down Under for a couple of years, so I get a myriad of news from there and had saved this article - a nice tribute to Prince via an interview she did with Aussie media.

There's a couple of other photos she has of Prince in her gallery "People" on her website if anyone is interested:

"The last shoot Walpole had with Prince was in a Melbourne hotel room during his February Australian tour. The shoot gave one of her favourite Prince shots, a haunting, straight-to-camera picture capturing the musician’s epic and intense other-worldly magic."

ok, interesting, so that means this photo was from february. i was already wondering why he looks
a bit healthier in that shot. although it could be light, angle, whatever. but he does look more frail
and tired in the 'purple piano' pictures sad

when i read that part of the article, i thought the different vibe could have been related to Denise's recent passing, but who knows.

It is simply made of light coming out of the fro...but that would mean it isn't coiffed in the perfect circle.

He looks so thin in these. Noticeably thinner than when I saw him in person in 2014. sad

Wow.
These pics are definitely telling. I don't like seeing him like this at all. He looks so fragile.
I wonder why his fingers look so swollen in the 1st pic.

Very telling or he could be tired from the touring.
