[update] I just wanted to make a quick update and show my appreciation for all the positive feedback on this photo, and an explanation for my extended absence. So thanks everyone for visiting and commenting and for the well wishes in the new year. My hard drive crashed on Boxing Day and I though all my information was recovered, I'm just too busy at the moment to get out and shoot, or to sift through my recovered data for an old postable shot. So if you just hang in there and examine every pixel of this shot, I'll be able to update again next week. Have a rad weekend! [original post] I leave you early this year with this unusually composed image (bigger is better). I'm gonna take the rest of the year off from posting. I hope you all had a good year. Merry Christmas, happy New Year, and I hope you all come back to visit again in January. Until then, I may be posting randomly on flickr. Finally, a special super-thanks goes to all the support that you have given over the past year. I'll show my appreciation by learning to juggle unreasonably well. aok Wednesday, December 20th, 2006 - 05:01AM
