I took your comment into consideration. I've always enjoyed looking at her photographs and would love the opportunity to work with her. It will be a while until I get those pro shots, but I will definately let you know when I have them. Thanks for your kind words, by the way. Hope your day is just swell.

Hi Kathrine,

I just got back online for 2 weeks off on holidays. Just read the thread- I have never been to Bali. But would love to see it. My partner has been befor with the airforce and loved it. I hope you didnt get hit by that earth quake the other day. I saw it on the evening news. Always worries me such things so close to home.
True what you say thought about Bali and Mexico. I have a Spanish background. So to visit Mexico would be so exciting! I have often thought of a mexican honeymoon! LOL. Any who- I best be off and catch on some much needed PL. Hope your well.
