Congratulations! Great work with your eyes shut! It's amazing that the personal style of a number of photographers, yourself included, has shown through even shooting blind.

Really? You had your eyes closed? Terrific. My fav so far. I like how this image connects two people who might otherwise never have any relationship at all. Great contrasts.

What a great narrative this shot has. What a great moment to capture, you pressed the shutter at just the right time. Are you sure your eyes were closed and you were snapping randomly? Must have been cause this sort of shot is the kind of gem you get when taking a hundred photos. Excellent.
