  Hurry back, Robert! I enjoy seeing your work. Hope everything is OK for you.

This is a great shot. There is a real mood to it, but I am still trying to decide how it makes me feel--I think I agree with Dolores. It has a mysterious feel to it.

  Holly cow!
I have never had such a response!

Murry, Lorraine, Ruth, Dolores, Tania, Shelley, Ellen, Carol, and Sharon!!!

Thank you so much for your kind comments. It makes me warm at heart to hear that someone is going to miss me (or my images).

The reason why I have to leave is quite pathetic. I simply have been banned from BP for repeatedly posting offensive and nasty comments on other people's work...

Keep up the great work, folks, and HAVE FUN!!!

  I wanted to correct the record. Robert's statement about being banned is not true.

I think Robert was joking. In a personal email to him, he said that he was simply getting busy with a big project at work.

Anyway, we did not ban him from BetterPhoto.

  Yes, I was kidding abou the ban. I am sorry if this caused unneccessary concern.
Best regards, and see you soon.

  Shame on you, Robert. You've got to realize you're dealing with an old gezzer with a bad heart! I could go at any minute with posts like yours :0)

  Shame on you is right! I had to pick my jaw up off the floor when I read your explanation, but now that I know better I'm giggling.
Murry, I'm a nurse....if you DO have a heart attack I could possibly save ya with a little CPR....and with pictures to prove it. ;)

  Congrats Robert! I knew this had winning potential! Good luck with the grand!! Am so happy to see you took a break to check out the activity on your image!

And yes!! ...tsk..tsk for making Jim look bad! Though I knew you were heavily involved in a work related project, I also knew that Jim (and others) probably didn't!!

  Congratulations on finals with this one, Robert! I'm sorry I missed it when you posted it, and having started at the top of the comments, when I got to the part about being banned, I was in shock, thinking, "He's always been so nice with his comments". So, I was relieved to find out you were only joking! This is a wonderful photo, and I sure hope to see you back on here soon!

Cathy :)

  Hi there!

Great news sure it was!

Cathy, Lorraine, Sharon, and Murry,
thank you so much that you took time to write with your congratulations. I appreciate this even more than the actual win.

Carolyn, unfortunately, taking photos is not my REAL job. I wish it was. Actually, I haven't made a single buck with the camera...

Sharon, don't you worry, when I am back, I'll be as mean as one can get. But, you are safe for some time still...

Again, thank you very much - your comments have made my day.

  Wow...
Now that I am back, I keep on being shocked at the response I got...

Thank you so much again! Your support is really meaningful. Appreciate this immensly.

Shelley, Damian and Bernard, I am sorry I failed to thank you for your congratulations earlier. Please accept my apology.

Again, big thanks everyone!
