    stunning. amazing that you captured that look into the soul of you and the camera. Hopefully his release is successful. I always enjoy the photography on your site. Thanks for your comments on my site about the night and dusk photos. I agree that the light before sunset when the sky gets so blue is a great time to photograph. The sky can change colors so much in a short time. I really like the brilliant colors we can sometimes get in the Southwest. I will have the full moon shots up over the next three days and today i posted a saguaro cactus and used the painted light technique. Using the tips from the night photography class has been very interesting. I am looking forward to taking more dusk and night shots.
