Short Bluejeans! Hungarian Fashion Sense? ! Hope You Like This Fun & Youthful Fashion Feminine Statement-In-Time! Cheers & Bravo To This Young & Vibrant & Confident Young Lady!

It's often simply about the moment and realizing it and doing one's utmost to capture it.
Feeling lucky enough to have a camera at hand!
The adrenalin rushing, the activity, the emotion, the rush of the moment!
Like running a race! getting completely caught-up in the motion, the action. Trying to capture something. The stimulation of it all.
The doing of something bold, brash and artsy! The knowing it is somehow also right at the dege what you are doing.
Being an artist and ' going for it ', whatever 'it ' might be?!?
Like running a race, like capturing something that is ordinarily glimpsed but not recorded for future study or enjoyment.
Being just the slight bit naughty in one's artistic pursuit which is also sexual and invasive to some degree as well.
Sure, it's all ' out there ', to be visually enjoyed, to be attractive, to be enjoyed, but to be recorded for posterity? That's the question? Where's the line? When is it crossed? What makes it all okay or all wrong?!?
I don't have the answers and am ready to delete this if it offends or hurts anyone. But in today's ' anonymous-world-at;large ' I hope it just brings joy and conversation and appreciation. Because for me this young lady;s outfit does work, it does appeal, it does get our attention, certainly mine. I hope she will not mind as she is young and beautiful and she is making a trendy artistic statement with her outfit, and being an artist and a male I appreciate it all. Bravo.
So, here you have it! I am running the race to capture the moment, the fluidity, the youth and the sex appeal, the fashion statement ' of-THE-THIS-SPECIFIC-moment ' : what do you all think? Is she successful, do you like it, does it work? Do you approve? Is it too ' out there ', or is it perfectly okay?
Was I the only one noticing? I was perhaps the only one bold and brash enough to record it?
I liked it. I liked it a lot.
Got my blood rushing, may adrenalin was pumping.
As a male and as an artist I was glad to be a witness to all of this. I did talk to her, help her some, as well as her boyfriend, too. Little did they know? Is that best? Is that okay? Should I have said something at the time?
At the time I had no idea what I had or was capturing? It was all just a chance to record something, so I jumped at the chance. I know some of you would not, will not approve : and will say that I crossed the line.
I am sorry for that. But seeing what I have I definitely feel that any negatives have been outweighed by the many positives of these pictures, of this quick-and-fleeting moment in time.

Cheers and enjoy, I sure do. What a look, what a statement, what youth, what femininity, what fun and excitement, pure joy in color, form pattern, youth and freshness! Bravo young lady, tahnks for sharing yourself and your style and your sense of yourself and sense of fashion with us on this weekend day in Washington D.C. On every level I enjoyed it, still do looking at these pictures which I hope, if you ever see this will find it more flattering than not?!? The verdict is still out.

The Art Of A Female & The Color Of Her Turquoise Scarf! Early 2012 In Winchester Virginia Out In The Countryside In A Brand-New , Open & Spacious Warehouse On A Lovely Monday Afternoon!!

Somethings like this I do just for the love of the moment and the joy I get and I give and the fact that things click and fall into place : and that I find life beautiful and those around me beautiful, and I like to give a big ' thanks ', a ' grand merci ' for that as it always takes a village, more than one anyone to make a moment such a wonderful success.

This was an event that just fell into place in a lovely serendipitous way. It just happened.

The one goal of all of this was to find Anne-Marie a non-French white wine that would complement the fabulous local Maryland and Virginia oysters.

It was also important that that same wine could also complement much of the rest of the food served here at this annual wine-tasting event. As you can see it also included some fabulous cheeses that are here really optimally displayed on a large mirror that serves as a platter and reflects so much from it's surface all the while. So clever and artsy, I love that, being an active artist I love that, really I do!

As you can see Anne-Marie's beautiful turquoise scarf is the unifying color and image in all of these pictures, even when you may not see her.

This is also a celebration of Anne-Marie and her beautiful, contagious personality that is so free-spirited and lovely and genuine. It caught me up completely quite unexpectedly, quite off-guard, and yet I was a willing captor in all of this, and with my trusty camera I tried to capture much of the moment and pleasure and fun here.

It's always nice when everyone plays, everyone gets caught up into the moment : most here did, too. You can see it here in these photos. The movement and the color and the vibrancy of the red wine helps. What pure joy, what pure pleasure. What a pure and precious soul is Anne-Marie's!

We had to taste the REVERDY dry white Loire Sancerre even though we were looking for a dry and flavorful white wine from the United States to satisfy our mission for Anne-Marie! Look at how Anne-Marie's turquoise long and flowing scarf is the perfect background for this liquid Loire Valley 100% Sauvignon Blanc!

Italy and France and Veneto and southern Rhone and Cartise and sparkling Italian wine - a Prosecco - all come here together above , thanks, merci, grazie to REBULI.

Ahhhh, the wonders of that reflective cheese [latter, too.

One of my very favorite pictures taken Anne-Marie enjoys the REBULI and tells me that her tolerance for alcohol is really low. Yet she was  quite the trooper here. Merci Anne-Marie pour tous. Surtour pour ton joie de vivre totale!

Anne-Marie was/ is a sharer, and with one of the oyster-meisters she shares the BUTY Washington State mostly Semillon dry, flavorful white blend. he was most appreciative, too as he shared his three oysters, all from the same type but grown in three different local regions of Virginia and Maryland.

Here the three of us come together in our wonderful celebration of the moment, so by-chance, so serendipitous, so totally unplanned and unexpected, so bonding.

The fun and the spirit of pure glee and enjoyment - sharing our precious time together here. Loved it, really I did.

Merci infinement Anne-Marie.  Anthony ( TONY ) Quinn  3/23/2-14

MORE FUN EVENTS 2012 Andy Warhol's Office Shadows-Inspire Series Of Painted Canvases For A Nightclub? On View @ Hirschorn Art Museum

I do not know why I have not posted this yet. I enjoyed it immensely, it opened my eyes as such experiences so often do. They are so physical, so tactile, so absorbing, and I gently or quickly get wrapped-up, absorbed in these moments, much into my own skin and thoughts - ruminations - speculations - as i think of where and why and what I am in-at - involved with, whom with - at these moments. ... Sunday afternoon on a gray and cold day today here in northern Virginia at home on March 23rd, 2014 as I find these pictures and realize that I have not yet commented or posted them. ..
Sometimes the responses and answers to the questions above are personal and in this case they are and so I will not answer them. What I will say is that it was a fine experience for me that, on some levels, I did share with another and I am thrilled to have that experience shared with another. It is something that we can talk about from time to time and remember.
In the meantime these pictures that I have taken take on a life all their own and I hope that they inspire you in some way. If you went to the show at the Hirschorn on the Smithsonian Mall in Washington D.C. then they may help for you to remember and relive your own experience. Otherwise they may make you want to see these paintings at some time in the future and perhaps go find the brochure on this show.
I think of Andy Warhol here, but, even more, of how his work may challenge or engage , stimulate and inspire others that are pursuing their artistic paths and that also may be gay - or not - and how Andy Warhol has helped them in this process?
Being an artist myself I am able to say that his work interests me less than him as an artist, a man and a person that has made his own place - carved out his own niche. Bravo to Andy! Cheers and enjoy these photos. Anthony ( TONY ) Quinn 3/23/2014
