Ashley's Graduation

Ashley is my niece. She lives in Virginia and just graduated from Radford University with a double major: Criminal Justice and Spanish. She wants to go into law enforcement, possibly as a narcotics agent in Colombia. Her mother was born in Colombia.

I like these first two photos because
Ashley is shown in the context of the event.

And she is practically glowing.
Just before the ceremony ended I moved into the aisle among the grads to get this shot of the mortarboards being tossed in the air.
I got a good shot of Ashley looking up,
but only a few grads tossed their mortarboards, so the air was empty.
I added the flying mortarboards in Elements.
This is what the shot should have looked like.

My brother, Michael.
