What this is is a nice informal shot of a pretty young girl. No matter what you do, it does not and will not have anything to do with college admissions, decision making, etc. etc. - except to you. If you wanted to tell a story about the call, you needed to set something up - perhaps a series of a couple shots showing her on the phone, perhaps with the college catalogue in one of the photos. Even that wouldn't convey what you have in your caption, but it would come closer. I am making an issue out of this because I think it is one of the real failings of many many folks taking still photos today - they tend to believe that a photo conveys information that they have that is not in the photo. Anyway, nice shot - :-) B. D. - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
