Excellent shot Murtaza. It's amazing that you were able to take this photo though - I thought photo taking was frowned on. #99634Murtaza H. Saeed February 22, 2004
Thank you very much, Leanne!Photo taking is frowned upon in certain segments of society. But, not all. Just have to be careful where you're shooting and who you're shooting;) #390416

Murtaza, I love the tradition you captured in this photo. I also love the lighting and coloring. This is a very special image! #396432Murtaza H. Saeed February 25, 2004
Thank you, Margaret. Your kind words mean so much. Your photo - "Look Of Love" is one my all time favourites!! Thank you again! #396481Murtaza H. Saeed December 28, 2004
I am sorry, I meant to say, Peggy, in my last response. Thank you very much, Peggy!:) And it was your photo that I meant to compliment:)!! #999250Peggy Wolff December 28, 2004
No Murtaza, I am sorry. lol I used to have my gallery in my given name Margaret. Then when I switched my business name I desided to switch the name here to what every one knows me as...Peggy Wolff. That way, I can send potensial clients to my gallery to see my updated work. I have confused many people! Thank you for your wonderful comments. That photo was my niece so it was extra specail to me as well. #999877Murtaza H. Saeed December 28, 2004
Thanks for explaining, Margaret, if I may;)If more people know you as Peggy, then it's good business sense to switch to what everyone knows you as. It's interesting to know the background story to your name & to that very special photo:))Murtaza #1000097
