H-K200
We travel
over a mirror
without silver,
over a crystal
without cloud.
If the lilies were to grow
upside down,
if the roses were to grow
upside down,
if all the roots
were to face the stars
and the dead not shut
their eyes,
we would be like swans.
(Garcia Lorca)

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.
