Hey DeviantArt,

I travelled far.

Across Canada to the sea, then down the coast to California, across the deserts and rocks of the southwest states, along the Gulf Coast, into the bayous of Louisiana and up the Mississippi Delta to Memphis. From there it was a straight shot to New York and finally, a long and silent Greyhound bus ride home to Ontario. I travelled by means of foot, car, bicycle, train, bus, truck, hitchhiking, boat and plane on this journey. I went as far away from my heart as I could. When I came home, she was here waiting for me. We're together now and life is good. I am chipping away at the mountain that is a career in photography. Some days are better than others. There has been international recognition followed by weeks of no assignments at all. I've faced a million rejections and there will likely be a million more. Once in a while something happens and I use that to keep me going. I often dream about the stability of a day job. Maybe I'm not cut out for the stress of it all? Then I keep going.

I hope everyone is doing well. If you would like to see what I've been up to, go to my blog [link] and/or my website [link]

Good luck everyone. Wish me the same. We all need it.

I just wanted to let you know that I've featured you in my latest journal. I enjoy your deviations and think that they should be shared. Take care!

Cheers,
Ryan

I looked though your gallery while on a round trip viarail from Belleville to Stratford and back again. Thank you for distracting me from the beautiful scenery outside to get caught up in a hard black and white world. It was lovely (:

Sorry I didn't comment as much as I would have liked to.. was too excited to get to the next picture....

Hi.
Just wondering, would it be too much to ask for a copy of your "my beat-up Silvertone amp" pic. I really like it and would like to use it as a desktop background, so a 1680*1050 pic would be great...
Thank's in advance.

I would like to use the fireman pic to recreate another pic. Would you be interested in letting someone do that?

I'm never wrong. I once thought I was wrong, turns out, I was mistaken.
