Floating Head on Previous Post

After posting the picture of Dan - which by the way looks great on my 30″ Apple Cinema Display, I see that the background appears TOO DARK when posted to the blog (or to Flickr for that matter).  Since this is supposed to be a site about Advanced Retouching, it probably isn’t that great an idea to leave obviously floating heads hanging around the site.  I will fix later today and replace the original in that post.

Send me a comment about the original before it gets changed.

On a completely unrelated note, I was watching the the Oscars last Sunday evening.  There was Wolfgang Puck showing the desserts to be served at one of the upcoming parties.  It was with a smile on my face that I remembered the distinct pleasure and privilege I had, assisting during a photo session of his wife, Gelila Assefa, at their home in Beverly Hills.  Wolf, Gelila, and their two children are all great people.  (Oh, btw, Gelila is a knockout.  Really stunningly beautiful and personally warm and hospitable.)  We scouted the shoot on a Sunday, and I had the opportunity to play ball with the children.  I was pretty busy helping set up outside on Monday, the day of the actual shoot, when Greg comes out to say that the kids were asking, “Where’s the fun guy?”  ooohhh.  That made me feel good.  So, for me the highlight of the Oscars was the fond remembrance of playing with Wolf’s and Gelila’s kids in their backyard in Beverly Hills.  And it doesn’t even bother me that none of them probably have any memory of me what so ever. LOL!
