Hannah - Graduation

Graduation:
Although the exact year of my high school graduation will remain unspoken, it sure feels like only yesterday when I received my high school diploma, marveling at what the future holds, as I look onto the next step, the next big thing, the college...
Well, that's not entirely true. I didn't know anything back in high school days. I don't think I even knew what I was doing in college either. I suppose to a certain extent, boys never grow up. That is, until they are married, and then have a kid of their own.
Well, that's for another time. Here are some pictures from Hannah's graduation, a proud alumni of College Preparatory School, onto the wild wild East Coast!
Yay! It's my turn! The time has finally come for me to walk across the stage... and be out of here!!
Hannah is feeling relieved, now that the hard part is over... and the only thing that's on her mind right now, is to go home and relax. Or maybe to eat some good Korean food. Or maybe the after-graduation party which I was not invited to, though it was being held at Castro Valley, probably close to my home.
Congratulations to all the seniors at College Preparatory School, class of 2008! And now, time for some pictures with family and friends.
Just as a note: even photography is definitely different than the usual, every-day photography. First of all, I realized the need for a good, telephoto zoom lens, because with an event, it's not easy to be exactly where you want to be, to take the photos. Thus the telephoto zoom lenses provide a wonderful flexibility.

Also, because the event takes place outside of my control, if I were to miss a chance to take a picture, that opportunity may never come back to me, so every single shot really counts.
I suppose that's why wedding photographers can charge so much money.
Perhaps it's time to volunteer and learn more at LimePictures.

Congrats, Hannah! We will miss you!
