To my wonderful father, which I know doesn't have a Facebook or Google+ Account in heaven but he knows somehow I'm thinking of him

My father was a wonderful man to listen and to talk to. He can go for hours talking about History, Medicine and his awesome anecdotes when he was growing up. He achieve more than I can even attempt to achieve. Before he was 24 years old he was a Doctor of Medicine. In his political career achieve Governor, Surgeon General and Mayor positions. He taught us that your earn what you work for and that honesty is very important. He was 87 Years old when he left us. I'm glad I got to tell him everything I felt for him before he was gone. I love you and miss you Dad.

Thanks but No Thanks

The only time I do photography for free is if I have an idea and I want to shoot someone or charity. One other exception is during Drink and Click events. Yes, exposure is nice but it won't pay for the 10K in camera equipment I bought during these years.

You have exceptions?
