Just wanted to take a second to point out that I have stepped down as a co-moderator of this forum. When Scott stepped down a while back, turning over the reigns to Rick and myself so he could spend time with his family, it never occured to me that I'd have to do the same thing soon enough. Aside from answering a few emails from members, I just haven't been able to devote the time I should to the management of this site and our events. These days, spending time with my two babies is the most important thing in my life, and it's tough to find the fime to perform the tasks associated with RMNP.

So, Rick and Adam have been handling everything for a while now, and I'm sure they'll continue to keep this site chugging along nicely. And I'll still be around, participating when I can.

I've enjoyed my short time as co-moderator for this great group of photographers. This is a great community we have here. Keep it up!

Thanks for all the work Brent. :biggrin:

I can relate to where you are coming from with three little ones at home at home.

They are definately my priority. Fortunately they all like the outdoors. But I have to temper my wild photography adventure ideas with my family in mind.

You've got your priorities right, Brent. You get one opportunity to raise your kids, and we'll always be here when you find time for your photography. Thanks for everything you've done to help keep RMNP going!

Brent, before you know it they'll be in school and doing more stuff on their own and you'll have time then to think about the forum. Enjoy this time while you have it, you can't get it back. The forum will still be here when the time is right.

Those precious years with the kids really fly-by! It takes a lot of control to avoid having too many irons in the fire. Thanks for your efforts as a co-moderator. :toast:

Enjoy the time with family. Thanks for working hard. Being a moderator is a thankless task!

Thanks to Brent and all the moderators that keep things working here and the discussion informative and friendly. I don't post much because I haven't been shooting more commercial work than nature lately, but I do check in a drool over everyones beautiful pictures.
