Simply beautiful. I'm moved by what you photographed. You've given these
parents an incredible gift. And I'm glad you shared it with us.

: I threw together this rough and dirty web page today. I selected six
: images I took in January when I had an opportunity to visit two good
: friends who just became proud parents.
:
: This is no ordinary child, however - she was born over 14 weeks
: prematurely. Despite her tiny size and some pretty formidable odds
: against her, she struggled for life for the next three months until she
: was healthly enough to be allowed home. The strength that child mustered
: up, and the strength of her parents (one of whom was near death when she
: was delivered by emergency cesarean) is simply remarkable.
:
: I shot these in the "preme" section of the materinty ward during bath
: and feeding time - pretty dim light - and opted not to use a flash. Film
: used was T-Max P3200 pushed to 6400, developed in XTOL 1:1. All were
: around 1/30 at f2 - I metered once and guestimated as necessary.
:
: On the digital side, I used a Minolta Dimage 2820 dpi Scanner with
VueScan.
