This one was shot 3 years ago when Paul was accepting an award at a  
charity event.

I seem to work with celebrities a lot in my worklife (both playing  
music & shooting pictures, but usually due to the music part.)  Last  
night , f'rinstance, I played a gig with two bands, us & The Eagles.   
(The Don Henley shots aren't looking too good...)

Now my wife's work is getting us into social situations where celebs  
are somewhat prevalent.  If I'm working I usually have my Canon digi- 
rig but in more social scenes I usually have something simpler. At a  
party last week, upon seeing an actor who played one of my favorite  
roles on The Sopranos I just hadta whip out an M (with Tmax 400 & a  
50 'lux) - when I scan the filum I'll throw up something.
