Posted By: <b>Joann</b><p>I think so too Barry. There is just ... something ... about it. I can't pin it down.<br /><br />Joe - you should find a good crop image from it - like Matty's face - and make it your icon/avatar. I think this is such a great image that if you hang on to it for long, you will be kind of "known" for this card. People will associate you and this image. I already do.<br /><br />J

Posted By: <b>Joe D.</b><p>thanks bruce and barry for your kind words.<br /><br />joann -<br />what jumps out to me... is that the photographers personality and artistic talent shines through. That is a difference between it and many other team photos.<br /><br />Everyone is most definitely in an orchestrated position and pose (standing, arms folded, arms by side, etc.) You could see how the top two guys are posed identically and almost a reflection of each other. Everyone there has a serious look on their face (not a smile among them).<br /><br />I believe Benjamin Falk did a lot of photography for the broadway stars... so he must have had an eye for the theatrical.<br /><br />Its a piece that combines a beautiful setting, a tremendously-talented photographer, and an incredibly talented team.<br /><br /><br />Edit to say: Thanks for the suggestion. I think I will pick out a piece for my avatar.
