If I haven't said it before then here it is now..... "Hey Gene Smith move over buddy there's a new guy on the block and his name is Steve Barbour!" Where Gene played with "extra lights" of various types here and there on many of his projects. You use what you see!!!! And that's one of the things that lifts many of your pictures above and beyond other photojournalists regardless of who they are. Including Gene Smith. A tough subject to work with when you know what the basic outcome will be for what appears a strong willed young woman whom I have no doubt will cope with whatever occurs. One can only wish her a prayer as we've done with others in your photography. Good on you mon ami! ted Irene... http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/barbour/PAW2007/irene.jpg.html "let me poke your tumor..." http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/barbour/PAW2007/irene+sara+4.jpg.html prayer... http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/barbour/PAW2007/irene2.jpg.html godspeed... http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/barbour/PAW2007/irene+side.jpg.html my thanks for looking...
