The HDR shots you had recently until acquired remotely shall we say are further evidence of your claim to be one of the finest photographers on here and that is not a reflection upon anyone else's work on here, just that yours moves me in so many ways..
take heart chap, you take images that are worth more than many people realise, all you need to do is find a way for them to part with their hard earned monies..keep the faith as Jon Bon Jovi would say
Love and man hugs, (plus sloppy kisses to cheeks and back slaps)

Dude if you wore a bra i'd be on one knee proposing. Cheers for the pick-me-up. You know that i have always valued your opinion and admire your images, so it means a lot coming from you donkey boy. I'm not unhappy with the images and find myself feeling kind of selfish when I think of them, a bizarre from of mind.
God bless ya buddy

man snogs back but keep yer shorts on....i'm not kissing yer cheeks

But now, when I look back on those occacsions, I shudder to think that I could still be there.
Insomnia..wouldn't want to wish it on anyone..Watched my mother and daughter go through that. I'm going to sound like an anarchist but alot of pills that pharmacuticals shove at us can make a situation worse. There is alot of alternative information and help out there but they can't be freely available on the street like your local drugstore, who are the dispensers of 'approved'. Insomnia can color your whole life and I believe there is help out there and don't let people tell you how to 'properly' find it. Yes, you may not be the only one out there with heavy trials..but that just means we are all in 'this' together.
This is a wonderful image!!!!!...If I ever produce something like this, don't think it's a cry for help

Wow you have a great use of words m'lady! Wise words. I have often say if the wisest of women were to lead the governments of this world then it would probably be a much safer and compassionate place. Thanks for the support and advice Fay.
Sometimes it is easy to feel alone in a situation even though you are surrounded by kind and decent people. Roll on the next phase...a pinhole
camera? Who knows
Steve buddy you must have been typing the same time as so i'll slip this in as an edit. I totally agree. Easy to be led in to a state of self doubt...we all have experienced that and many of us still are. When a punter does not show or existing ones never seem to come back or there is no follow up call of thanks... these are all blows to self worth and confidence sometimes. I guess the comfort is in the fact I/we are not alone. It is the sheer nature of this medium and business that will always lend itself to critics and knock backs. Life is much the same throught...
Right!!!! on a happier note I have an ice cold can off beer here and its heading south by way of my gob!!!
Many thanks buddy...never change. man snogs to you and some BIG SNOGS TO FAY XXXX
