On Canon EOS 5D Mark II Review, March 2, 2009
What a goofball! How can anyone take this guy seriously!
On Nature's Magical Moments, June 21, 2009
Right you are Stan about the mundane stuff -- perhaps a future article is warranted . . . Looking forward to the pic of the dancing polar bear on Delicate Arch!  
On Cordillera Huayhuash – The Abode of Mountain Light, July 23, 2009
Hey Arnab, let me know the next time you plan on visiting -- can I please tag along???
On It's A Tough Year!, August 4, 2009
Great pictures and article Ed!
On Bisti Badlands: Land of Enchanted Rock, September 4, 2009
Great article and pics Joe, thanks for sharing!
On A Nature Photography Carol, April 5, 2010
Stan, you are cracking me up. Too funny . . . maybe you need to be co-author on my next satire piece!
On Twelve Significant Photographs a Year, January 3, 2012
Hi Navin, thanks! I see you are from the DC area - guess we're neighbors!
On Twelve Significant Photographs a Year, January 5, 2012
If you're going for 13, well then I'm aiming for 14!
On Holding Out For A Hero, January 5, 2012
Not sure yet when the move will take place, maybe this spring or early summer. I'll let you know when I know!
On Holding Out For A Hero, January 5, 2012
Cause that's what ever photographer hopes for - to be cited for his failures rather than his successes! Great article Kory! P.S. I'm moving up to Minneapolis this year, we'll be neighbors (at least during summer, that is).    
On Twelve Significant Photographs a Year, January 5, 2012
thanks Lon, very kind of you to say!
