    She shines my friend!!! She is beautiful! What a wonderful image to do justice to an obviously wonderful woman! I wonder – is there any way for her (and others you capture) to see the results of your work?

  • hsien-ku replied

    thankyou my friend – she was so beautiful that i had to photograph her. and she comes to the flea market quite regularly so i hope to give her a copy of her portrait. what struck me about her was, as you say, she was just shining with love for her violin, for music, for the warm day, for the company of friends.

    Wow. This is a great capture. She shines, she glows and her smile is so genuine
    and I think it is because the violin is what’s making her feel. Wonderful work. Love this.
