Thanks Mike!

I see you cruised through all of the snaps, going all the way back to the beginning. Love that!

The Beautiful one is indeed a blatant homege to Burke-White's "American Way" which is by far my favorite photo of hers. For those who've never seen it:

The lovers and oblivious phone caller one was made in Paris. So many great kissing photos have been made there, I'm glad I have one keeper from there as well.

I drove by the broken King, thought what a photo, had a meeting to go to so kept on driving, but had to return an few hours later -- the image just would not let go of me. Glad it hits home for you!

The torn backlit flag was my response to 9/11. It's not hanging upside down (distress signal) but backwards. In my mind this signified everything is not quite right, but we'll still able to recover, on our own terms.

Nobody has commented on the light source one before. Almost didn't put it on-line, thinking back then that it's likely a so what image to most. Happy now it kept tugging at my brain until I changed my mind.

In Living Stereo cracked me up as soon as I saw it from down the block. Beelined for it and lucked out. Seconds after I made it the guy got on a bus and that was that. Lucky!

I haven't looked back in a while, been just adding and moving on. Your selection of favorites made me revisit the beginning -- thanks!
