Comments: This photo was part of a series taken in various public schools. Many of the photos, including this one, were made without any supplemental lighting in order to keep a low-key presence. The low light made a tripod mandatory. I used Olympus SLR's for the project because they are small, light and accurate. The 100mm f2.8 Zuiko (Olympus manufactured lens trade name) lens was ideal - it's much smaller and lighter than the slightly technically superior 100mm f2.0
If only I hadn't left my camera bag in the background. HC
