Hey guys and gals, it's been quite awhile. I just wanted to finally touch base and let everyone know what's going on. I know I haven't posted in quite some time and I do want to apologize for that. Life for the last 6+ months has really been too busy for me to think about photography in any serious way. I think the last time I went shooting was with Rick back on Dec. 6th around Mt Hood...? Whew, thats a very long time when I think about it.

So you ask, "where the hell has Jeremy been?" ....or not. To summarize a tad. We have been in the process of building a second location for our business. Had a second baby boy, Adam. Who put us through some scary moments that involved skull surgury due to his sutures in his skull being sealed. Luckily a CT scan ruled out any problems and has since had a clean bill of health, but the first few months were very stressful. Then during all this I re-injured my back and have been kinda laid up for quite awhile. But things are on the mend and everything is getting back to somewhat normal.

Also, that the calibar of work I have seen is really great and am very jealous at the amount and quality of work being pushed out here, it really inspiring!

I hope to be posting more, and hopefully getting out there to shoot while there is some summer left! Anyway just wanted to let everyone to know that I'm still here, and if any of yall want to get together to go shooting, drop me a line or and email.

Take care
Jeremy:)

Thanks for the update, Jeremy. Glad to hear all is getting back to normal. Sounds like a wild ride these past few months, and a difficult one at that. Congrats on the second child. Hope to see some new photos from you soon. I believe you are one of the best new talents out there today in landscape photography.

Glad to hear everything is back on track, Jeremy. I missed seeing your posts around here. Take care of that back, though man! But most importantly, congratulations on Adam and his clean bill of health!

Whoa !! About a year ago we were walking around the Independence trail at Mount Saint Helens... you have been very busy and I'm very happy to hear that your son's health is on the up and up. Back injuries.... yuck. 2nd location was supposed to be done last year ?? Those types of things never go as planned but I'm glad puzzle pieces are finally fitting and you popped your head up to say hi !!

Any time you can get out and need a co-pilot, I'm there.

:toast: :smile:

Hey, Jeremy - I'm new here, so haven't run into you before, but I couldn't help but wonder if you were related to Bob Cram? He's an illustrator/cartoonist that did the wonderful sketches in "Backpacking: One Step at a Time", and was apparently a weatherman in Seattle, too?

Anyway, I look forward to seeing your photos - I'm having a great time here, learning from some really fine photographers!

Tom

Good to see you back, Jeremy. I don't post much either (too busy, also), but stop in a couple of times a week to admire the work shown here.
