"Rich is what a GREAT photographer should be....He is reserved, patient, observant, knowledgeable and talented. Every one of his photos is thoughtout and planned. I'm not sure if he knows how good he is or if he just pretends not to know but I am here to tell you he is....His photographs show that he has what others want - A true and original talent for taking photographs. I want that too....Marc"
