  I was just cruising the galleries and found yours. First, this shot is so superb it's practically a sprititual experience just to look at the photo; it must have been incredible to witness it firsthand! Secondly, every photo in your gallery is breathtaking. I wanna be just likeyou when I grow up! Last, where do you shoot the magnificent cats?? Simply awesome.
