Love your photos and your articles/seeds. Thought I'd tell you. :)
You have some of the most amazing photos I've seen for a long time. I've been interested in photography since I was in school (spent many hours in the school's darkroom), and have always kept it as a strong interest. I don't have any good camera equipment right now, but it's on my list to get again one day. Thanks for sharing your beautiful work!

I am sure glad to have recently discovered you! Just when I thought I had entered a world of disingenuous rhetoric and fantasy ... you with your experience, intelligence, diverse exposure, common-sense and fairness appeared. I plan on following in your 'wake.' Great philosophy! I may be a "slow swimmer," but I carry shark bait just in case I need it!
