Gr8ful Dad's photostream |
My main thing is my 3 children and 5 grandchildren who live in Southern California.i moved to Washington State going on 12 years ago.however i keep in touch all the time.i go see them and they come see me....i do miss them terrably,however i started a new life.and theres change in life all the time...there always on my mind.i love them so much..i also love digital photography,ive been involved with it for 8 years now,and i just keep getting deeper into it...i would say i feel the same about photoshop and computers,im self taught.i would have never dreamed that i could have learned so much.i try to do/learn as much as possible.im always reading,i shoot with a D200 for the last year or so and before that i had a D70,now i have my last camera.a nikon D300.i wont get another.i mean ,a picture can only get so good,the rest is up to the photographer..i remember back in the days useing a kodak 110 ..lifes great -and i like the common bond i have with my flickr friends....peace

WildBS-Jax (Barb-S) says:
"Thank you Jeff (aka "gr8tful dad") & My Flickr Friend!
I stumbled on Jeff's work because he kept leaving very kind comments (& encouragement) on mine - including little clues as to what I "may want to try". I went to his flickr page to find that he is very creative and I am absolutely amazed with his digital imaging/manipulation/artwork.
But more than that - here is a very talented artist that is actually willing to help me grow. The generosity of his kind comments AND support are over the top and very much appreciated."31st May, 2010

Jeff is a true artist and a true friend, and I am blessed and thankful to know him."20th December, 2007

New Yorkled says:
"I can’t remember when I stumbled upon Jeff’s work but I can say that I’m so very glad that I did. His work in a word is ‘Amazing’. In two words it’s ‘Super Stunning’. In three words it’s ‘Over the top’. I’m in total admiration of his ability to take an image and do with it what few others are able to achieve. His visionary creative flair often leaves me dumbfounded and I’m oh so very happy to call him a friend here in this Flickr world where photographers abound and geniuses are few. Jeff my man, you’re a creative mastermind! Keep ‘em coming pal."

Ragstatic says:
"Jeff ! Jeff !. What a nice guy. We met on flickr. His artsy sense to photography is rare to find. Pretty much an unique style that he carries. Classy and picky with colors and frames. If you see his snaps you'll know what I mean. From his snaps I see he carries a sense of humor. A very responsive person, who takes care to see others posts and comment on specific points he likes. A wonderful person to be in touch with. I wish him fun and laughter filled days. Rags"

Charlie is here says:
"Jeff and I first crossed paths as we both enjoy photo editing and manipulation, we were members of some of the same groups. When Jeff first commented on one of my works he was kind and supportive (even though my early "stuff" was so so at best) and I was so grateful for the encouragement.
I "clicked" over to check out his page and not only did I find magnificent creations but, inspiration to continue to work harder to improve my results. Along the way Jeff was always checking in and cheering me on with his kind words.
I am truly grateful to Jeff and I am lucky and proud to call him my "Flicker Friend"

serni says:
"Jeff initially impressed me because he works so hard to improve his photographic skills (which are great anyway!). His continuous "war" with Photoshop and OOB is obvious and the results can be found (and admired) in his photostream. And then I also found out that he is kind and nice and takes time to comment on so many photos of his friends. Thank you and Great! to have you as a friend, Jeff :-))"

Always a pleasure to stop in and see what he has done."1st February, 2007

Trucker Pete says:
"gr8ful dad (Jeff) is the nicest man you could ever want to know, I met him on Flickr over a year ago now, and think of him as a brother,and his beautiful wife Barbara as a sister. He goes out of his way to help and advise and nothing is too much trouble for him, he is the best friend I ever had even tho we are many miles apart. Jeff is a great man. Pete "N" Lynne"
