Hi folks.

A couple of pm's asking where I am (thanks guys - I appreciate you thinking of me!), so I thought perhaps I should post. I'm around and absolutely fine, just really BUSY.

Many of you know that last year - my "Year of Photography" - was prompted in part as bunch of performance contracts evaporated when the companies went bankrupt, essentially driving a truck through my year and leaving me a TON of downtime. The ONLY good thing about 2009 was I had enough time that I could throw myself 10000% into photographic stuff, which I'm very happy I had the opportunity to do; I'd go as far as saying that it kept me going by giving me something creative to focus on while I was sidelined from the professional part of my artistic life by circumstances entirely outside my control.

This year however, while I'm still not back to a full performance calendar (the arts have been hit hard here in the US), I have a lot more going on which demands my attention. This is good because ... welll.. it's what i do! - but it has cut into my dgrin hangin' out and photo-for-fun time!! Add to that I seem to have a few headshot shoots coming in out of nowhere (talk about never rains but it pours).

Soooooo...... I try to pop in most days, but just never seem to have time to sit and concentrate for long enough to contribute. :rolleyes

In any case, thanks for the kind wishes! :lust:lust:lust:lust Looking forward to jumping back in when I get a chance - things lighten up a little next month, so maybe I can find some Challenge-ing time :thumb

    Good stuff that you are getting busy again. Notice you just secured the 85 1.8 to use with all those shoots. Now you gotta post shots with it again!
