p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · #394 Willie and Isabella

I've been too busy of late to enter very often but I grabbed this snapshot of my friend Willie Aron and his daughter, Isabella the other day at a charity fashion show that I was shooting and it just occurred to me that it might be relevant to this week's topic. A very last minute entry.

Please forgive me if I don't get to comment on everyone else's photos this week but it's midnight and I need to go cook some breakfast before I get to bed. I see that there are a lot of wonderful shots. Kudos to all!

While I have you, here's an announcement: An exhibit of 20 of my Black an White Flower photos will open on May 2nd at the Karpeles Museum in Santa Barbara , California http://www.rain.org/~karpeles/sb.html and run through August 31st. If you are near Santa Barbara during that time, please drop in to see them. Some Sunday in late May or early June (the date hasn't been fixed yet) I'll also play a concert there - sort of a combination concert / art opening. I'll post up the exact date when I know it in case any of you might be close enough to come. I'm a much better violinist than I am a photographer so I'm sure you'd enjoy that and we'd get to meet, too!

Oh Endre, what a stunning and gorgeous shot. The lighting is exquisite, right down to the catchlights in the eyes. A photo they'll treasure. I have no doubt friendship has already begun to form within Isabella even though she's too young to know it for what it is; and she is surely his best little buddy. Wonderful image.

+1 to what Beverly said. Great photo Endre. The lighting is quite the “Balancing Act.”

Thank you, Bev, my dear friend! You are always so kind with your generous comments! Isabella is a twin with her brother Eli so they will be best buddies eventually, too.

Fond regards,

Endre

Thanks, Greg! I'm glad you like it! The light was just what was there. Since I am very much used to shooting in natural light (prefer it) it wasn't that much of a "Balancing Act".

All the best,

Endre
