Description
This picture shows Chip growing out of Marilyn's hand, and some stranger coming out of Chip's head. (Or perhaps, I've been watching too many X-Files episodes.)
This shot was made at the Artists' Cafe on South Michigan Avenue during that Special Saturday, late last summer, when the Ninjas converged (oh yes! The Great American Ninja Photographer Confluence of 2009!) Much fun was had by all, and I can't wait to do it again.
Photographed in downtown Chicago on September 19th 2009.

That sounds like so much fun. I am suitably jealous now!

OMG, THAT was a shock, opening this and seeing myself!! I remember this place, had a coffee and Kahlua and LOTS of more great talk!! Chip had the same thing; we both look a bit dazed!!

WOW! I remember this perfectly...well...almost perfectly, as I was obviously not paying attention to whether or not a camera was being pointed in my direction. I distinctly remember that coffee with Kalua and the really cool pattern the whipped cream on top made as it melted and streaked downward in neat lines! Marilyn and I both sat entranced, watching it happen and debating whether or not to photograph it...we decided to drink it instead. That was such an incredibly good day! I think the Renderosity Ninja Photographers need to meet again...SOON...especially since there are likely to be more members in the group as well. This is really nice! I love the "you are there" vibe of this, and the rather bored expression on that waiter's face. Great play between subtle colors as well, and I love Marilyn's meditative expression. This is really great work and a wonderful surprise, since I thought you were posting a completely different picture! Great work, as always!

And Corey...since I missed the first meeting...had to cancel my room reservation in the Westin because of a minor medical procedure...I'll sign on for the next gathering. Afterall, I want to meet all you guys:) Like the rakish tilt and anticipatory expressions of Marilyn and Chip. Well done.

The Artist Cafe This was such a cool day. I never wanted it to end. Next time I think it should last 2 or 3 days. We just won't converge on the city..... we'll take it over and dominate. The next meeting of the Great American Ninja Photographers shall be bigger and better then ever. Ok , let me get small again. Awesome shot btw.

OH I wish I had been with you. You all seem to have had such great time. Pity it is so far away from here. It is a wonderful capture Corey. Thank you for visiting my gallery :)
