You are an inspiration and a role model. I hope to one day have 10% of the natural talent and skill you have. Please keep doing what you do. Your a blessing to the world my friend.
We talked at the track because I have a 4×5 Speed Graphic myself. A simple camera that does outstanding work. And you have done most excellent with it. %-)
