Noah
Late one beautiful balmy afternoon, I went cruising down a remote part of the coast I had ever explored before.  When I got out of my car to rest for a moment, I began to hear the music of a trumpet pierce the sound of the breaking waves against the seashore.  I was puzzled, as there were no other vehicles in sight, no other people, just jungle and music. Attempting to find the source of the music, I searched the road side and found a narrow dirt path descending toward the sea through thick brush. As I came to a clearing I spotted Noah, completely alone, standing naked on the beach, puffing away on his horn, beside a crystal blue cove. Wow! What a magical sight to see this scruffy blonde musician, naked and engrossed in this music. I observed for several minutes undetected...his lovely white skin and sun kissed face revealed he was visiting from afar. Over lunch, he told me he had been camping on that very beach alone for a week, nude and blissfully happy. Noah was delighted to model for pictures, but would not agree to video.  These photos were taken that very day, both in my studio and garden. He only agreed to model for me after I showed him my previous work. I do hope Noah will return to the islands someday without his fear of the moving image. This man and his horn move so well together!
