The Group Shot

This week's photo assignment was to take candid group shots.  Our teacher suggested each of us invite a few friends over for a party and take photographs.  Well let me tell you, I really didn't think I would be able to do it.  First, I don't know anyone well enough to invite over for a party and secondly, I would have a little heart attack just getting prepared for such an event.  Well, as my friend Helen says, there are angels everywhere.  My friend Mary had a little party at her house yesterday and asked if I could come take pictures of kids wearing scarves she designed and wants to sell in Tokyo.  The kids included her daughter and Yumiko and some of their friends at school.  I was thrilled.  I didn't do terribly well on the assignment, but it was loads of fun and I got it done.  Here are a few pictures.
