Update 1/12: i've let my 'pro' account expire as my flickr audience seems to be shrinking rather than growing. i'm uploading some of my favorite people photographs from the past few years and not taking nearly as many pictures currently. maybe i've just lost my way temporarily...

    "His is a brilliant and heartbroken vision of the world. People struggle with cold and bad weather and traffic to get across streets--their backs to each other, their backs to us. His landscapes are fierce and lovely and lonely. In his portraits, the faces turn away. All eyes are downcast, except those of the children, the dog, and the artist himself, whose sad eyes stare us down. Everything is complicated with light and shadow. Everything is immediate and visceral and intense from this vastly gifted photographer."

    "Tom's work is somewhere on the opposite end of the spectrum from the "eye candy" mode of photography. He sees and captures bits and pieces of the world which, if you put them all together, show a place which we probably wouldn't pick out of a catalog and say, "yeah, that's where I want to live." But it's the world we've got, or perhaps what we've made of the one we were given.
    We need to be reminded of this from time to time. That's why some of us choose straight, black coffee over that other stuff - the four bucks a cup, fancy name concoctions. Tom does a great job of finding and sharing such reminders."
