I'm working on a documentary project called "Children of Abraham". Several photographers are spending time with Jewish, Christian, and Muslim families and photographing different religious observances to show how the religions are similar and different. I'm sure these are not the photos that will be included in the exhibit. There will be others that will show the actual ceremonies. I took 1756 photos during the 3 days so there are lots more to choose from. (Thank goodness I won't have to do the selecting!) I just felt so sorry for Safoorah after last night that I wanted to show those photos to somebody and who better than the LUG! > > Tina the photos are lovely and they exude a particular form of melancholy...yours or the participants? A couple of thoughts/questions... why will the final images be viewed in bw only ? Maybe it's the custom to look sad at this type of wedding.... ?? How do they look at funerals... ? I can't imagine that 800 people were invited to see this...Steve
