Haley is simply awesome to shoot with - she is an amazing young lady. My wife and I think the world of her - she is such a sweet, gorgeous, quiet, adventurous, and fun person. We had time to shoot at the December 2022 Studio Boise open meet - what a great experience.I hope we continue shooting with Haley in 2023 - she is worth it!

Still life with chessboard and pieces....

I usually never showing works before starts a contest stage. But will be made exception this time. Improbably beautiful contest "Portfolio" hosted by Pona can’t have continuation. It is very bad news, but I hope that all will be OK.

The task: to do work in steams, to represent chessmen which battle among themselves. Cezarita became my partner in this task, and I am very glad for this)

So, "Checkmate". O-Umi in a role of the Black Queen, Steffi in a role of a White Pawn.
