oh, mime eye!

This is one of my favorite pictures ever! And it was a lucky shot. The mimes were walking down the path on stilts, so I put up my camera and happened to have it on the right settings at the right moment, because when she stepped into the sun, I thought WOW.

Here's looking at you, kid.

Oh, and blogged.

Everything is perfection with this photo: color, direction, background, composition, costume, makeup, expression...and your ability to capture art through the lens. ( I've now come back three times to see this...)

Defiantly, not a lucky shot... give yourself some credit.
