Re: Ricky's Kung Fu Pose

Like the pose Frank (although I find it not at all frightening, more 
humorous!).  The contrast range seems a bit high - I know you were shooting 
against the light, and obviously exposed for the main subject, but the soap 
carvings wash out completely on my screen.

Offered in a spirit of constructive criticism!

After not seeing him for almost 18 months, I finally ran into Ricky
the Soap Carver (I only asked his name this last meeting).  He wanted
me to photograph his "kung fu" pose, so I obliged:
