ABSOLUTLY WONDERFUL PHOTOGRAPHY-A WINNER FOR SURE - SO LUCKY FOR FOR YOU TO BE THERE AT THE RIGHT TIME AND KNOWING WHAT TO DO WITH YOUR CAMERA-- WELL DONE SIR- YOU HAVE MY RESPECT AS A PHOTOGRAPHERDorothy Neumann October 13, 2007
Thank you Dick. This is my all-time most popular photo ever. Although it wasn't a finalist at BetterPhoto, it was a Kodak Photo of the Day and it was also a winner at Photoshowdown.com. It was the only time I ever won a POTD at BetterPhoto, and as it came on Jan. 1 (2005), it was a great way to start the new year. #4921940Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
