One of the biggest benefits that we get from BP is that as photgraphers we will grow. How can we not become more versatile, more gifted, when we are influenced with the works of so many other artist around us. We inspire one another to reach out, try new things, don't be afraid to experiment. Patrick is such an inspiration because his art shows us that things we would never look at twice for beauty has it if we can open our eyes and see it. I personally think that the harder we have to look for the beauty the more we appreciate it, and our eyes open more still. I also think in many ways it makes us better photographers.Carol L.

Yep- looks like you appreciate the complexity of rust, as seen per Patrick too! #9219393Patrick Rouzes February 07, 2011
