I don't know how many of you have ever explored the links to the right; some might intrigue a few of you, perhaps not. Some, like "My Writing" probably don't warrant much attention, lol!
In the "Blogfriends" list is one called "FilmlessPhotos". The blog is by a Canadian photographer who really has "it". The eye, the heart, the technical prowess; the "whole 9 yards" and then some.
He just returned from the Olympics; I followed his coverage there through the photos he put up on his blog in his downtime. (Meaning instead of getting a few minutes of sleep he desperately needed he took time to post photos for us!)
As he was getting ready to leave, he held a discussion with two other photographers and the link that is my header (and slipped in again) is to a slideshow of their images from the games, set against their discussion of covering them; what was hard, what was great, what meant the most, etc.. It runs in Windows Media Viewer...
12 minutes of stunning images, wonderful stories, and a tear-jerker ending I hadn't heard about in the coverage I saw here; the highlight of my week!
Thank you John Lehmann!
If you can spare the time to watch, and you have the bandwidth for the download (42mb, so dial up isn't an option, sorry) I think you will be amazed, impressed and awestruck as I was with this man's talent, along with his colleagues, and their determination and dedication to their craft...

Thanks for the info on John -- his site is awesome. Also, found the Hawaiian dude -- fantastic! What incredible surf photos -- one is now gracing my desktop at work. I live right near Steamer Lane -- muy grandioso surf spot. I love to watch them go!

Alan,
I just want to say thanks for all your support and the wonderful words you have expressed over the past few weeks as I now start into my third month of my Blog. Its people like yourself that keep me posting as I'm sure you are aware it can be a lot of work.
As you can imagine I've taken a few weeks off after covering the Olympics but will be back at this week.
Thanks again,
John Lehmann
