My good friend Sylvester has an amazing story. Of Singaporean birth, he lost his first wife to brain tumour about 12 years ago. He eventually re-married, and amazingly, lost his second wife, with a brain tumour. She was pregnant with little Joshua, who was born, from memory, at about 21-22 weeks gestation. Joshua turned 3 last week. Sylvester's amazing attitude, cheerfulness and faith in God continues to inspire me.

Every June I do a portrait session for Sylvester and his family. Last week I got to do this again. Here is young Joshua, playing the up and coming executive.

Check Oz's signature line, ASIYCWIO.

a great story, (in a sad way), and a great series of shots. God Bless the little fella.

Thanks for this story Oz. He looks like quite the poser and you are making that 50 sing... Or is it a 85 1.2?

Is this your signature one window with white wall background and fill?

50L indeed.
As for Gary's crypticisms, I haven't worked them out yet either!!!

You are also exactly correct here Suren. The fill flash was also with my new "you-beaut-$1.50-homemade-flash-diffuser" contraption that works really well. If anyone is interested in it, I can elaborate.

(Thank you very much, your comments are much appreciated)

You're welcome. Sadly, I can't bloody well remember what the other ones mean.

The last one first because of the subject's smile
and the first one because of his attention to the
task. They could be for an add with a caption like...
"....mobile net working...any place...any age!"

Keen to see a picture.

Great captures! And an inspirational story to boot!
