My daughter received her degree yesterday ... there were about a gazillion people - and I was about a gazillion miles away from anything ... but we managed to find each other across the 'big divide' ... fortunately I had 200 mm lens with 2x converter - so got a great shot at 400 mm from waaaay waaaay off
Thanks for looking ... Phil

Great shot. Perfect timing! Beautiful young woman!
That is surely a shot you will treasure. Very well done! (taking the picture and raising a beautiful and talented daughter)
A sweet shot! Such a pretty smile with all those others facing away.

great job phil...nice shot of your grad!
This is a really good shot, especially considering how far away you were, Phil! She looks beautiful and so happy!
This photo says a ton! She knew you'd have your camera. She looked for you, took the time when fellow classmates are moving the opposite direction, then found you and gave you the million dollar smile. You both were in sync. Congratulations! It is a joyful photograph.
Thank you everyone for your wonderful comments ... we were well and truly blessed with Michelle - she has been an awesome person from day one ... It's been a privilege to be her dad ... thank you again ... phil
