@Babul Bhatt: Thanks :) he was so funny, I got a great shot of him annoying his parents, but I got a reflection off the glass, which was a great shame :(

Catalin from Bucharest, Romania

funny photo. but sad too see that this photo is made through glass, is not very sharp and the focus is not very good, but this how it usually happens in this cases. kep up the good work!

23 Jun 2007 2:47pm

@Catalin: Thanks Catalin :)
it was indoors too and the very bright lights they used reflected off the glass! so it wasn't a very good place to take the photograph :(

Cool shot here Mary, ok i did shoot a bald orang utan today and he to was playing around with the ropes and in the end lied on his table like a KING. I have it all captured, guess the next series after the "Fashion and Models" would be "Animals and Birds". ;-)

Enjoy your concert and have fun. :-)
