I *love* this shot: http://www.asc.upenn.edu/usr/cassidy/pix/paw/2002/33/nj1.jpg It has a number of things I usually don't like in a photo, and the combination of them is just stunning! Somehow, the extreme wide angle, the large hand, the camera tilt and the young lady's stance combine to wonderful effect. Is she a sorceress? A reincarnated Isadora Duncan? I think this one really works because despite the normally overpowering nature of the tilt and the super-wide effect, the picture is really about the girl. The second shot of her is more conventional, but also very nice. Kind of sad and waif-like. As for Otto's Daughter as bride, do you realize how hysterically funny it is that your cat is about to lap up the stage blood on the floor in the last photo? Well, you once said his soul belonged to Satan. . . :-) - --Peter At 04:49 PM 9/3/02 -0700, Kyle wrote: >Got in on Sunday, saw that there had been six lug digests in the last as >many hours, checked the t.v. news, didn't see a note saying that HCB had >been arrested for shooting eggleston, realized someone must have called >someone else a nazi and deleted all of the digests.
