Very nice! <BR/><BR/>My favorite time to shoot is late afternoon - before dusk but when the sun is lower in the sky - say around 4:00 or 5:00 on a summer afternoon. It causes the light to drape the subject instead of pour down on it. The shadows are not so harsh - especially on faces. <BR/><BR/>Say, I know you're a writer, so I need you to please visit me. I am asking for opinions and yours, Carmi, will be one of the most valued of all.

I spent a lot of time last year in that area and of course Demi Moore's "Striptease" movie was filmed there. <BR/><BR/>What caught my eye always was the multi-colored dwellings in bright pastels.
