After the Ball

Description


----
No, she didn't turn into a Pumpkin!
----
This is one of the Red Cross volunteers who worked for the Communications Department during this year's annual Red Ball Gala Fundraisers. In this photo, it's 11:30 pm. I came into the "volunteer room" to get some fresh flash batteries from my bag, and she walked in with a phone to her ear and a worried expression across her face. A few minutes later, she had reached the person who was to provide her ride home.

I just think you are a master of people. You capture the moment, love the raw as life, not posed looks you get. She is a beautiful lady, but its your treatment that really takes them to new levels. Love your work my friend. #11000082
