Everyone has excuses for not taking pictures, and it takes disciples to try to do it and to post the picture every week. Occasionally I post pictures that I thought is interesting to share. Having said that, while I hope I am a better photographer since I restarted in the hobby a couple years ago, it's clear that I have vary far to go. Sure, I take better pictures than some of my friends, but that's in the category of "not saying much." So while I will continue to do the PAW, I will not be announcing them every week, unless I think they have some merits. The only reason I felt compel to write about it is just to say that I am not quitting. I will do this PAW and more every week. And of course a lot of time I thought certain pictures have some merits, but they are often "not good enough" or worse. Clearly luggers have high standard, and of course we have high standard bearers too who amaze us with their shots weekly and in some cases, daily. For these people, I thank you. It's always inspiring to see a GB pic, a Steve Barbour pic., a Doug Herr pic etc. Keep them coming please. // richard (This email is for mailing lists.
