The first picture is precious, you've enhanced the original mural art through the picture!
God bless you!

Xcellent post, nT!
So many pics? I'm becoming a bad influence in your blog life.
Elroy was so young and sporting an afro too! wow
Good choice to show the close up of the hands. One, because of the narrative it sets up and Two, it gives the viewer insight into Kent's technique. This paint by numbers application (before the use of photoshop filters) and on such a large scale.....really, I don't know how he does it
btw: you do a great job photographing art
Love that top image!!!
Very imaginative, Tash. Nicely done.
The top photo is especially beautiful. Really touching.
Nice choice! I like it. And what a cool mural.

Whoops, missed this posting until today. GREAT mural!! Like the second photo especially.
The hand touching hand shot is perfect! I love it!
Nice entry. Real/Art, Art/Real. Great job.
Came here via 2 Things Challenge.
Wonderful interpretation of the challenge, plus what cool photos!
Really clever photos! I love the little hand touching the art hand....at first you can't tell just what's real and what's art and then you realize it's both all in one photo! Next 2 pictures are cool also....very nice and perfect for 2 thing challenge!
