Shot from over my head. I was on a bench and still couldn't see everyone in the frame.

I raised the camera over my head, angled it to what I hoped would be right, and shot. A couple of minor adjustments in multiple frames and voila! Finally got what I wanted.

As for us all being stars, we are. Each of us shine in our own way. But like a star, it takes more than one person to create a star. It takes the reflection of light, whether it's us recognizing someone else shining or us shining back at them, or both, it's really a collaborative thing.

And in the world of celebrity, it takes more than one person to create a star. So why not in everyday life, too?

My star here is made up of three friends and two strangers who were intrigued by the idea of working together to create art. Cool, huh?

    The idea of working together to create something-a thought that seems to be losing appeal today.

    And that's why it's so important, Bob. We're all in this together, whether we want to admit it or not.
