Thanks for the wonderful comments, everyone! I took this photo yesterday, while Kate and I were visiting the University of Washington in Seattle. It was the second time when we went there together, but for us it’s never enough ;-). I have some plans for the future, I’m thinking about taking some Infrared photos, but I need less people than there usually is on week days. Just busy days for all students (I hope they have breaks on weekends days? ;-)Duane, your comment made me proud of my photo! You see much more than me ;-). Thank you for your wonderful comparing!

A really inspired marriage of subject and background, Monika! And what a beautiul and charming little model! Lovely work, Monika. Congratulations and good luck with this! #115613Monika Sapek May 26, 2019
Gary, Terry, Connie, Mette, Duane, Murry, Dolores and Gerda – thank you very much for all your wonderful comments! They brightened my whole day! Making the finals is always very pleasing for me, but making them with some portraits of my kids is much bigger and more important for me. Photographing people had, has and will be the biggest meaning for me. I wish I could improve my work and make my photos more interesting for viewers.#115805
