Scott,
    Again, I could only look at a couple of pages due to my slow download, but
I really like the direction you are taking.  The pictures are telling the
story more often now.  In your first gallery, I liked the still life of the
family photos. In the second gallery, I liked the tight shot on the
guy--second one down in left hand column--and the sweeping feet shot--last
shot in the right hand column.  In general, you are getting more faces and
eyes, and putting a human face on a place.  Good shooting.  I want to give you
a more thorough critique, but my download times are just way too slow and I'm
way behind looking at PAWs.  My wife started a new job this month, and I think
it might be time to look into getting DSL...
Regards,
Michael Gerard
