100 Friends and Family: Carl

The Perfect Hair Day : Carl at the top of the Basler Münster : Basel, CH

I'm starting a new series here at The F-Stops Here... . In addition to my photos of strangers, I've been taking pictures here and there of friends and family. Every once in a while, with their permission, I'm going to post a photo of someone who is more than just a stranger in my life. I'm launching the series with my friend, Carl. Carl is currently staying in Ferney at the home of my boss. Carl is from Minnesota and is a music teacher. He has a fabulous voice! Every once in a while, he joins us for jaunts around Switzerland and France. I took this photo on a recent trip to Basel. We were up at the very top of the Basler Münster and I noticed that the style of Carl's hair that day matched perfectly with the carving in the sandstone tower. Instant tourist shot!

It is possible that I am slightly biased towards the subject. But I am also struck by what a good eye you have. Felicitations!

Adorable. And clever.

I think the friends and family idea is a very good one!

I love the picture and the concept of featuring your family and friends, especially when you consider they are mostly outside of their normal element.

Faith: It was hard not to see the correlation between Carl's hair and the architecture. Simply put: it was too perfect!


Debi: I thought so! I'm hoping the friends and family feature is as fun as the strangers.


Cele: Thanks!
