 This is my best friend, Ricki (left) and I (right). We went through high school together in Germany, moved to seperate parts of the USA for college after graduating in '02, and have kept in good touch since. She happened to be on her spring break visiting me this week, so it was a hands-down choice to use us as the models for this week's challenge.
I chose to have the picture being of us looking through an old yearbook together, because so many of our memories together came from our days together at school.

I used a ten-second delay and a flash.

I like the grain in this one. I don't like the cropping choice. But I bet the subjects were laughing legimately. At least, I would like to hope so. good effort.

This picture has many nice elements to suggest a "story". The engagement ring is especially nice - moving on from the shared experience. It translates grainy to my screen and makes me wish it were a sharper image. 6
