            Katharine Hanna commented: "Very striking and amusing capture, Chic! In either version, it would be interesting to see what the image would look like with the overhead light cropped out. IMHO, it draws quite a bit of attention to itself, whereas the real subject is Miss Cecily and her son, and the moment of discovery. But who asked me? :-)"

Dear Katharine, I always want, and value highly, your opinions, thoughts, suggestions, advice, etc. Here is the photo with the overhead hall light removed.

I was engaged in an impromptu, early morning photoshoot for Miss Cecily, owner and artistic director of Arizona Ballet Theatre in Tucson, Arizona. She always presents well to the camera because of her colorful and imaginative sense of style. It was an overcast day and this doorway faces north. Unexpectedly, the front door opened and her son Raf appeared. This shot was one of her favorites from that session.

I wish I had swept and washed the entryway before the photoshoot!
