They're all quite good, Gary. Obviously from a skilled camera. But that ballerina image is really a new classic. Wow.

Gary,

This is real life you are recording and it's beautiful. Each picture shows the promise of another child and represents many hours of devotion. I appreciate very much seeing all these pictures. You cannot share too many. Each one brings its own charm.

The first ballet dancer and the yoyo master and then Rachel grab me the most. It's always surprising when you learn what great things other people do that you'd never guessed at. Having a personal involvement with a creative activity is a major shield in a child's development against destructive traits.

Every kid should have the chance to make magic somehow.

Nikolai is right in saluting this picture. Not only is the violinist shown, but also the lights and the angle give us a sense of a star-studded event.

This picture is presented in B&W and the discipline fits with the dancers pose, taking away the obvious flashes of color to allow us to enjoy basic form. The judgement, knowing that the first should be in color while this is worthy of being simplified, is grounded in a good sense of the parameters of experience to be emphasized for us, in the presentation of the image that the camera happens to record.

Thanks Asher. The Yo-Yo Master is still in training so I call him Yo-Yo Boy, which in turn his father is Yo-Yo Pa and mother is Yo-Yo Ma.
