I don't know the child, but, that's what Eric looked like about eighteen 
years ago.

Thursday night, he was home from college, singing with his

Hi Sonny,
Absolutely beautiful simply because it's real light right in your eyes!

For the life of me I can not understand why anyone would use flash and a 
Leica with it's glass particularly in this circumstance of mood! Is not the 
beauty of the moment in your photographs as much the light as it enhances 
the scene?

Then a person uses a "TWINKIE LIGHT!" And completely destroys the beauty of 
the moment! If they ever understood the meaning of "Using the light you are 
motivated by!"A pox on them and the flash!

Both wonderful moving images. Thank you for once again showing what light 
and the moment is all about!
cheers,
ted
