Oh man, this is definitely my fave of your latest postings, Ken. This is one of those images that needs to be printed four feet wide on canvas and hung on the biggest wall you have. Great detail buddy! When you create an image that makes the viewer want to walk right into it, you've succeeded. Great image. And as much as I want to see it big, it makes a great new avatar too! ;-) #9777388

Dear Photo Friend: I feel that something has changed at Better Photo but cannot tell you just what has happened. I have been here since 2003 and most every month I have written to all the winners telling them how their work touches me. I have witnessed photographs that bring tears to my eyes and colors that are unbelievable, now I am worried that like all good things that it will not be here the next time I look.
But the feeling of not being able to congratulate all the winners for the hard work, and sharing their talent with all of us makes me so sad.
However it turns out and even if this is the last time I have this privilege, to let you know how exceptional your work has been, please know that I will never forget.
CONGRATULATIONS to all of you for the month of March, 2013, I send my very best to you always, Merna Nobile #10647636
