One of the greatest joys in creating beautiful images is the pleasure others get.  And no matter how many times I repeat the process, the newness and pure delight just seem to grow with the passage of time.

People often express their appreciation in different ways.  Some write brief notes like this one: Thank you very much.  The pictures are great!!  Others write letters such as this artist from New York who had put on an exibit at a local college: The images you took are splendid and will be a big help as I show others here in New York.  I will be sure to pass along your name and contact information with great praise to the professors to the school in case they may need another show to be photographed.

Thanks even appear on checks as the one I just deposited: The pictures are GREAT!!  God Bless!

Appreciation can manifest itself in the most unusual places.  I was in the dentist chair recently and one of the technicans, for whom I had constructed a composite picture, leaned over and hugged me.  Tears began to flow as she related how much her Christmas picture I had made was treasured by the receipent. He had just lost his young wife in an automobile accident.

THE SCIENCE AND ART OF PHOTOGRAPHY CHANGE CONSTANTLY. I never stop practicing, learning, and experimenting.  I know the dividends constant improvement bring in joy to myself and to my clients.
