bike with window reflections

bike with window reflections by xgray.
this photo is included in the book, XGRAY VISION 2009

I realized it was kinda ominous for me to post a photo called "party's over" and then disappear for two weeks, so I figured I'd write a short explanation--being that the flickrverse is a very big part of my photography.

Unfortunately, I've suffered some rather painful neck and shoulder FAIL recently, so carrying a camera around, sitting in front of the computer for hours processing my own photos and looking at all of yours has for the first time in a long time not been my daily priority.

That said...

I'm hoping to heal up and be back at it ASAP.

I'll also let you know that I've been thinking a lot about my work recently. Making plans and making some decisions as well. More on all of that later...

We'll have to manage without your images for awhile, but what really really matters is that you get well soon. So take good care of you and don't mind us for now. See ya.

I know how that works, I recently had my own issues that put me off the camera for a while. I hope you heal quickly.

Best wishes that everything is getting better soon. I have the same problems from time to time. We have to learn to manage times with gymnastic, yoga or something and times with computer. When nothing hurts, I forget the other part and the problem starts again. Hope you do that much better !!!

Wonderful photo. I love how the window reflections play tricks with the plains.
Neck-wise - I had a bad fall a few years ago, and whenever I feel my neck beginning to tighten, I wear a heatpack around it until it eases. Simple, but so effective.

you have the most amazing eye for detail, and it shows in every one of your shots. you look at things completely differently and make ordinary things look extraordinary. i can only hope to be as amazing of a photographer as you some day. truly inspirational.
