Just an update, the weather here has been astoundingly warm and without AC it gets hot and uncomfortable!! So I have been trying to stay cool and get a bunch of work related stuff done. I went to Seafair this weekend and caught a Blue Angels show, it was great, I got all day to play with my telephoto lens, I may have to upload a few pics, I haven't even looked them over yet so who knows! But this was not what my journal is supposed to be about!
My dear friend

caught my 10,001st pageview

so he wins the following feature!

I just wanted to say thanks so much for all the support and patience as I have grown as a photographer over the last year or so. It's been a blast and I hope you continue on my journey with me to become even better!!

aka Tom Kilbane (very Irish indeed, I approve!) is a deviant of many forms of art and expression, his well rounded talent does not go unoticed here on dA as he does pencil, charcoal, pastel and photography. He is also known for helping other artists by supporting them with subs and well thought out, helpful comments. (Of which I am very grateful for both!!)

In any case, Tom's work is excellent and he has a heart made of gold, thanks for the support my friend, I could not have done it without your help and encouragement!!
Here are just a few of Tom's works, his gallery is huge and it is so hard to pick favorites!!
