I know this may seem like nitpicking - particularly as this is a very nice image - but I believe it is an important nit: you've taken a very nice photo of a group of people presumably singing, but the rest of your story isn't there.

It reminds me of old photos in Life magazine. It really tells a story with no words...a wonderful accomplishment. - --- Don Dory <dorysrus@mindspring.com> wrote: > Last week I was in North Carolina and ended up at a > shape singer exhibition. > Basically, this is a multi-state group that is > maintaining a musical > tradition that uses shapes instead of notes to > denote pitch.
