Ramon's colleagues

Four of Ramon Delgadillo's colleagues, photographed during the first of two retirement parties held in his honor. This one, a public event, took place in the Superior Court building in downtown Phoenix. The photo did not turn out quite as well as I would have liked, partly because Kathleen, on the far left, is slightly out of focus. But given the circumstances, any kind of group portrait would have been difficult, as I used a prime lens for this image and had to compose and shoot it amid all the bustle and noise going on around us. Moreover, I think it was the first time I have ever attempted a portrait of a group this large.

Besides, from what I have been told, the women shown here all love this picture. Two nights later, it was used as part of a Powerpoint presentation set up by Gabriella, second from left, and shown over and over again during the second party, this one a private event at the home of Jennifer, seen here second from right. I am unable to identify the fourth member of this group, although the others will probably enlighten me during the next few days.
