Rose has blessed my life with her wit, intelligence, compassion and unfailingly good nature for a good many years. We don't see one another often enough; the occasions of our rendezvous tend to be rather extemporaneous -- "Hi! What are you doing right now?" often as not leads to a delightful meeting in relatively short order.
Recently she accepted a spontaneous invitation to visit me at home one afternoon when I was preparing to matte and frame some prints. During her brief stay she paged through a photography book I'd recently acquired, The Life of a Photograph, and I learned something new about this close friend: she is a life-long art lover, and has a deep and broad appreciation of many genres. Her enthusiastic enjoyment of this artist's eclectic approach was a joy to share; I took this image as she paused to glance up from the book.
