Welcome to this week's "Member of the Week" post. Every week I will post the name of a member and a link to their profile. This will be our Member of the Week. Go have a look at their profile page and/or portfolio. Enjoy their photos, leave some comments and most of all post one or two of their photos in this thread so others can see them and enjoy them. If you like you can also write a little blurb saying why you enjoy this member's photos.

This week's Member of the Week is hihosilver. And here are a couple of her photos.

She's cool, alright. She has a wonderful, vaguely exotic visual sensibility. I like Mae. Not least because she calls me PuppyBear :-)

::squeak of shock!::

Gosh...when I woke up this morning and received this email, I confess I thought...hmmmm...is someone is playing a practical joke on me?...::stares suspiciously at Yanko::

But wait...the email is signed by the lovely and talented KarenNfld...Hmmmmm.

With great trepidation, I clicked on the thread link provided in the email (oh no! Will I get a computer virus?!)...and landed here.

*Deep sigh of relief*...The familiar grey of DPC...I'm HOME!!!

This thread provides me an opportunity to say what I've wanted to say to this community for a long time (six years actually)...

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Although I appreciate this honor, the truth of my thank you is for all the voters, commentors, and RANTS gracious posts in the forums who have brightened my life for the past six years.

P.S.

This week is also my birthday (YAY...29...AGAIN!) So, Karen, my family thanks you so I'll be less grumpy now.

06/10/2012 05:02:17 PM · #11
She has a wonderful eye and a deft hand at processing. Love her work.

06/10/2012 05:34:25 PM · #12
Aw dang Mark beat me to it! Oh well, beautifully done b/w and yep I like me them purple hosses too! :-)

how in the heck did I miss that pelican!?!
06/10/2012 07:14:19 PM · #14
wonderful stuff, like walking through rooms & rooms of dreams.
06/10/2012 07:38:23 PM · #15
Mae is very cool. And she has amazingly cool daughters, too. :-)
06/10/2012 08:05:39 PM · #16
Any discussion about Mae's work must include her horse photography. My understand is these photos were taken while traveling faster that the speed of light, hence the time dilation.

Gosh...I probably should have dusted the cobwebs off those images. ::dainty sneeze::

Thank you for your kind words and thoughtfulness...::BEAMS and HUGS::

I hope you all enjoyed this commercial break.

A horse never runs so fast as when he has other horses to catch up and out pace. –Ovid

Go Mae!
You are a rare diamond of a person and a remarkable photographer. You already know I am a bit of a recluse photographer, but I sincerely enjoy shooting with you. It’s refreshing to see you find beauty in everything and everyone around you. You connect with your subjects and blend life and light together with moving emotion. It is a rare talent that can see magic in the mundane. It's good to see you and your work getting some well deserved praise!

I hope you will be sharing your work and wit here for a hundred more years!

Some of my favorites of your DPC works include;




You really need a profile picture!...

Well, this week has been full of surprises! Karen, this honor has been a personal highlight and thank you for including me this week.

So, I must stop staring at my shy and embarrassed toes and say to each one of you who took time out of your busy day to post...

Belated congrats, Mae! I meant to post sooner. I was looking for the likes of this in the street thread and got sidetracked, I guess...

06/17/2012 09:31:55 AM · #24
*hugs*...thanks, Brian!

My favorites are pretty much in line with what Gringo opted for.

Congratulations on a well deserved recognition.
