Congratulations, Victoria! You won the drawing for $20 SKOSH BUCK$. You have managed to collect quite a nice little pocket of BUCK$ - $140! Thank you for participating and for sharing such kind words with me.

I have written everyone's words on post-its around my computer screen. Total motivation. THANK YOU!

The reason I asked for everyone to help describe my style is due to a new look for Skye Snyder Photography (stay tuned). I have learned that I can't get all my sites, pages, blog, etc. cohesive looking (technically starved photog) and have turned to the expertise of Corina Nielsen to brand me. (certain this will be pain-free unlike a happy california cow--branded with the state and a perma-grin).

I have also learned that I have no idea what my style of photography is. I know what I like. I know how I like to shoot. I know how I want it to look; simple. real. and interesting. Woh- was it really that easy? Maybe.

And "maybe" reminds me of another topic...the story of "The Farmer's Luck" by Jon J. Muth from Zen Shorts. If you are looking for a wonderful children's book consider this delightful story that retells Buddhist teachings in simple, kid-loving taoist fashion.
