Steve Barbour showed his magic touch of capturing human beings at precisely 
the right moment!

"Cartier Bresson move over real quick! There's a new kid on the block, so 
get out of the way! :-)

Steve mon ami,
Absolutely wonderful moments. I mean the hands in the first photograph! The 
magical expression in the second... Hell don't think .... SHOOT!  As a 
photographer this is the ultimate observational moment of tripping the 
shutter.... "LOOK AT THE HANDS!" CLICK!! They say so much in that 
mili-second of shutter release. And ladies and gentlemen that's what people 
photography is all about!

It's all about see, feel, shoot! Never mind all the damn techie stuff 
because if you are a photographer who must think about each exposure? Go 
shoot rocks, ferns and non-breathing things like AA!

Live human beings wherever they maybe it's completely .... "Feel---- shoot!" 
and faster than that! :-)

Wonderful project Steve, hang tough with it mon ami and you have a prize 
winning project and book in the end!

I don't believe I've ever seen anything like your project in the past 60 
years as a professional photojournalist!, so old buddy stay with it as your 
talent is going to produce a prize winning project and book! :-)

cheers,
Dr. ted :-)
