  Joannie and Avril, thanks so much. This young lady is Miss Hastings at a civil War re-enactment in Long Beach. She was very gracious and posed for us with graceful ease.

Those events are a wonderful place to practice taking portraits with lots of willing subjects. My history with portraits is sadly lacking and it was a welcome opportunity.

  I predict a Finalist (or better) for this image.

Excellent photography and perfect presentation Dale.
