  Thanks for all of your comments. This one is in my upcoming book, and the story written with it is called "The Angels Of San Miguel". Just got through approving the cover yesterday with the publisher, it's getting closer to really happening.

  What an absolutely fabulous photograph, Marvin! The first question in my mind is - which one is the angel? Both subjects are captured as candidates - that's probably why you used "Angels" for the title. Congratulations on your book - I hope you'll let us know when it's out so we can get a copy ...
