PrincessDianaFan,
I don't want to put you on the spot but how do you manage to get so close to these people? Are you in a government position or something?
I have to admit, I am so jealous!
You are fortunate to be this close.

PrincessDianafan, if you don't mind me asking, who is Ace Cheong? Is he your friend or a professional photographer?

Thesepics are just wonderful! Hope I could be close to a Royal some day of my life...
But it's possible to be near a Royal...Believe me! I will tell you three little stories:1) My brother was near the Emperor and the Empress of Japan when they visited Argentina in the 90's. He has no camera with him...GRRR.  . He said they are warm, nice people. Akihito and Michiko were driven to know the Japanese Garden of Buenos Aires (where there is a House to drink Tea and eat Sushi, Sashimi, Shabu-Shabu and all the Japanese meals you can imagine), and there, they were teased by a comic actor very known here...and they laughed heartily! They acted in a very natural way.
2)My father knew Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlvai and Shahbanu Farah Dibah, when they visited Comodoro Rivadavia, the city in Patagonia where he is born. He got really close of them, and said they were cheerful and very approachable. He even signed the Book of Visit right below the Shah! They were visiting Comodoro for it is in a region well known for its oyl industry.
3) A friend of my Grandfather, knew that King Balduin of Belgium was visiting us (I think it was in the 60') and wanted to demonstrate how easy it was to kill a king (we-ell...He is an intellectual. He has this sort of weird ideas). He went to a demonstration that belgian community performed for the King and he approached him, in a very easy way. Then, he gave to him, a little punch in his back, that made the King to turn. My Grandpa's friend smiled to him and shaked his hand saying in French, how much he admired him. Later, he used to said: "If I should want to put him to sleep, I only should have a knife in my hand. So, the punch on his back could have been mortal. So, you see..It's quite easy to kill a King".
I think that it could have been easy to PrincessDianaFan to get close to some Royals.
Vanesa.

Hi Tenngirl,
I'm a freelance writer and I work with my friend freelance photographer Ace Cheong who knows of this website and is happy to share his photos here. You can check out his website at www.aceimagesmedia.com.
Just two months ago I was introduced to their Majesties the Emperor and Emperss of Japan, in my capacity as an author, not a journalist. Unfortunately Ace was denied a press pass and couldn't get in, otherwise he would have gotten some great shots. The Emperor and Empress are extremely gracious, soft-spoken people.
Met most of the other Royals at the IOC Conference last year.

Well, we're looking forward to real photos of royals from you and your friend.
