Chopsticks

I was at home on Saturday after the little chick left, and I got a call from a friend. He works for a relief agency, called the global hope network, and they concentrate on caring for the most destitute people in the places where CNN isn't focusing, where other relief agencies aren't going. They're worth looking at, and supporting - you can see some more about them and their programs here.

Anyways, they were having a fund-raising concert - a classical pianist - and my friend wanted to take some pictures to use for publicity after. He was wondering about what kinds of settings to use on his camera, how to be able to do it without a flash... and since I hate explaining stuff like that, I offered to come and shoot some for him. He took me up on my offer, and these are the pictures that came out.

Turns out that Pascal Solomon, the pianist can really, really play. I'm not much of a classical guy, but even I dug this. And it was fun to be able to get some pictures of him at work.







You can see the rest here.

Cool pics DD.

I wanted to let you know that I am officially the only public follower of your blog. What can I say, I took pity on you...

This might be what you would call a truce. Question is, am I just luring you into a false sense of security... before I ATTACK!

I do enjoy being the neutral observer here. So, when are you guys bringing out the big guns? I'll get some pop corn.
