in the still of the night
I dedicate this image to both my mom and my dad who had been gone for a long time. They had given me life. Today is the day I was born. So, this is a BIRTHDAY SPECIAL.
The title "IN THE STILL OF THE NIGHT" was a favorite music by my parents. I miss both of them. I tried to live up to their expectations. I wish they're still alive so they can witness my photography and my art.
And I thank God that I reached this age and next month, I will have a book, HDR UNLEASHED, penned by me.
Enjoy my offering. BTW, You will see how I did this in my book.

Bless you Joe, what a wonderful tribute to your dear Mum and Dad, gone but never forgotten, beautiful photo my friend, well done :)
Hi, im the Lead-Art Director for `Howards and Caz`s Gallery` and would be very honoured if you would consider posting your stunning photo into the Gallery.

This Gallery is so different than anything flickr has done before, as it is a tough Gallery to belong to, and now the bar has raised to Platinum level, and only the best will be accepted, and it is my opinion that this wonderful piece here belongs with us ……. I hope you will consider posting your beautiful photo in, as i feel it has the standard required to be a part of this Gallery......Kind regards..Caz (L-AD)
