This was taken at Lembongan Island, one of Bali's sister islands in Indonesia.
My old lady is one of the many seaweed farmers that occupy the island and she was nice enough to show my aunt how to string the weeds together. My cousin rushed to take a picture, and I shot this just after she had taken her photo. I just love the old lady's expression. She was very happy to have her picture taken.
I chose the title because I felt the strings almost acted like a connection between two people from different lands, and it just seemed to fit in this case.
A happy marriage is a new beginning of life, a new starting point for happiness and usefulness.

A tradition of giving loads of blessing strings is very Thai. Congratulations!

On May 2 2013, Ms. Shakura M. Ismail, Elizabeth High School string teacher hosted an enlightening musical event entitled “A Strings Night Out” located at Thomas Jefferson Arts Academy. The intent of this program was to build rapport and foster string education throughout secondary education. During this event teachers were able to showcase their ensembles’ talents as well as collaborate and share creative ideas.
The auditorium consisted of creative energy and excitement as each school took center stage. First to perform was Mrs. Cho-Murphy, director of the string program at Dr. Orlando Edreira Academy School #26 who performed “Beale Street Strut”, by Doug Spata and “Pirates of the Caribbean” by Klaus Badelt. Dr. Albert Einstein Academy School # 29 String Ensemble, under the direction of Mr. Sean Glennon, performed “Ode to Joy” by Beethoven and arranged by Mr. Glennon. Finally, the Elizabeth High School Orchestra, under the direction of Ms. Shakura M. Ismail performed works from Haydn, Lindsey Stirling and Bert Ligon. Additionally, the EHS Orchestra featured five soloist; Juvetssy Rizzo (violin), Ana Valentin (violin), Madeline Romero (violin), Ghobrial Yacoub (viola) and Kyo Wan Kim (Cello). The evening ended with an energetic collaborative performance of the “American Fiddle Medley” with all three schools up on stage. Can you imagine hearing over 100 string players performing on a single stage? This was a memorable event!
The ultimate goal is to make this an annual event and to continually lend support throughout the upcoming years to all the string ensembles throughout the school district.
I had a chance to visit Kamimoto Strings in San Jose's Japantown yesterday. One of the interns on the Web team at SCU works there part-time. She showed the owners my portfolio and they were curious about how I might shoot their shop. I spent about an hour shooting around the shop with the TtV rig, the Lensbaby Composer/Sweet 35 combo, the GF1 and Pinwide, and the E-PL3 with the Oly 17mm 2.8 and Panny 7-14mm f4. I took a few iPhone shots, too. They were pretty busy, and I tried not to get in the way, but I think I captured the essence of their business...
The birdcage action is fully removed, exposing the strings and the cast iron plate behind. The sounding board is the wood behind and resonates the sound of the notes.

I've decided to sell my lovely Larry Carlton guitar on ebay, so I took some photos today. If it sells I will get the Nikon Nikkor AF 200mm f/4D ED-IF AF Micro, which will be about $1400 with tax and shipping. Or I will wait for my tax refund next March.
Guitar is extra special because it is #79 of only 100 made, signed and numbered by Larry himself; handmade by Valley Arts Guitars circa 1990. "Mint condition" doesn't do it justice. Once I figure out the shipping I will post it on ebay.
