People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

Superb capture. The lighting, the contrast, the detail, the angle, the lighting, the lighting, the lighting. I am not familiar with the technical vocabulary for photos, but as a person who appreciates beauty and talent, this is pure joy. Simple but riveting, you cannot take your eyes away from this scene. I would like this imprinted in my brain to view whenever I wish. Favorite for sure.
