I remember when I first noticed this phenomenon of light + flesh= red glow.
I was about in first grade; my dad had some sort of an LED pulse monitor hooked up to his ear, so he could exercise properly. But the LED, which I knew was white when I looked at it on its own, shone RED through his earlobe. It baffled me for several years, I think. Someone eventually explained to me that your blood in all your capillaries is red and that's why that red glow happens (and oh yeah this doesn't just occur with your earlobe).

Holy crap! that's a strong reaction from you! :D
Wow, great shot. I can honestly say I've never seen something quite like this as a photo.
Josy, sometimes it is just sick how seriously you rock. This is one of those times.
well, the response was genuine... and accurate... i really did have a "holy shit" reaction... this is a really, really good image (for a number of reasons)... one that i admire... seriously...
