I just wanted to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving. Everyone has a lot to be thankful for even though it may not always seem like it (I know I grumble too much about the negatives even though the positives far outweigh them!). From a photographic standpoint, I have a tremendous number of things to be thankful for. I live in an area I love to photograph, I have the freedom to photograph where I want and usually when I want, the area I live in is safe, I have the wealth to be able to afford the ‘luxury’ of photography, I have a wife that is very supportive of my being gone around dinner time a lot and that understands all the hours I put in editing photographs, I’m thankful for the time photography has giving me with my Dad, and I am thankful for all the friends I have made through photography (yes, even the ones that use Nikon equipment!). I’m thankful for the ability to share my photography through my website, Flickr, and Facebook. I love photography just for the sake of photography, but it would be a much lessened experience if I couldn’t share the beauty of the world around me so easily. So thank you to everyone that has followed and supported my photography!
Eloquent and heartfelt. This Nikon shooter is proud to have you as a friend. Your work is luminous.
well said Scott! I am super thankful for amazing photographers like you that are so passionate and so willing to share that passion with others! Happy Thanksgiving brother! =)
Glad you included us Nikon users!!
I am thankful that I had the opportunity to meet you and shoot with you this year. Your pictures inspire me to become a better photographer and I look forward to each and every time you post one.
Thanks Jeff! I’m very glad to have had the chance to meet you this year and do some shooting with you as well. I’m looking forward to more outings in the future! And your storm photo taken out at Pillsbury is still my favorite I’ve seen this year!
Well it is Thanksgiving, so I felt generous 🙂
Thanks Chris! It has been amazing to meet so many great and helpful photographers this year, I’m very grateful for that. Happy Thanksgiving to you as well!
Thanks Tom! I’m very glad to have the chance to have gotten to know you…now if I could learn to write half as good as you do!
Scott,
Thanks for reminding those of us who are like-minded just what we all have to be thankful for.
I’ve sure enjoyed out time together out shooting photos in Kansas, and will miss it by this time next year, I’m sure.
I’m thankful for all the guidance and encouragement you’ve given this Nikon shooter over the past couple of years.
Thanks Adam! I’ve really enjoyed our photo trips and I’m going to miss them. I’ll be looking forward to seeing all the new areas you will get to photograph though!
