Jeffery is one of my best friends. We live 250 miles away from each other, but talk to each other regularly on the phone, and have gotten together many times. He has been a guest in my home, and I hope it happens more. My family and my cats and my dog are fond of him. That said, the pictures are technically competent as I would expect of Jeffery. He has captured moments that you who are living in a situation of normalcy cannot imagine. The church shot ranks as one of the best I have seen in the record of New Orleans. I want to tell you though, any of you could pull out your point and shoot and achieve this level of documentation on the devastation of that wonderful city. Unfortunately, it once were the details that made the picture of New Orleans vivid. Today it is the wide shot, and there is no camera that can do that. If you get a chance, please Google images "Lakeview Katrina." You'll see what I mean. New Orleans needs help, and if you have any political clout with a Congressman or a Senator, I urge you to email the church shot to them. Ask them if they have visited the Gulf Coast. If they haven't, say "why?" Thanks and Regards, Sonny http://www.sonc.com Natchitoches, Louisiana Oldest continuous settlement in La Louisiane ?galit?, libert?, crawfish
