While most know Ken for his amazing and very entertaining photoshop skills, he's also a very good photographer. I revisit this particular shot from time to time - it was his "Best of" for 2006, in more ways than one. And it's great fun to watch Riley as he grows up.
A whole folder of birthday greetings for DPC'ers, courtesy of Ken's incredibly photoshop skills and sense of fun (and kindness to do these in the first place.)
He also has DPC's most extensive and creative collection of self portraits. One of my favorites is one of the more serious ones:  .
But there are a ton of really quite, umm, different ones as well.
Definitely a portfolio worth a long, leisurely visit! |

Good choice. Not only is he good, but he's got a fantastic sense of humor:
     
And it would not be right for me to overlook this gem:

Ohhhhhh yes! A most deserving honored member for this week -- and every week for that matter. One of my favorites here. I appreciate so much about his kindness and the way he can always turn any conversation into a lighthearted fun place to be -- but what I may appreciate the most -- is how he's made us all bond so intimately with those amazing little wooden creatures. Yayyyyyyy Ken!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Edit: Ooops. . .can't type.

Wahoooooooo.............this is one man who deserves so much more recognition. I often talk of his talents to other photographers....his ability astounds me...and he does it with such humour that few misunderstand....and when that humour is reached right across the globe, it is one heck of an achievement. Congratulations Art.

Ken is one of my all-time favorite DPC'ers. His attitude towards everything is fantastically genuine, and even though some may not get his sense of humor, i do, and it cracks me up every-time.

Always a great sense of humor on both the forums and the pictures he takes. Has the ability to shoot subjects just oft kilter, yet still keeping the horizon level. Great admiration knowing that for many, photography is a personal affair.

| The Village burner gets his day! great choice. I love Art's sense of humor and he always brings a bit of levity to the threads when things get too serious. His actions always remind me to have fun and not to take things too serious. This place was a bit duller when he was on break and I for one and glad that he is back, congrats you crazy nut:) |

Totally agree that Ken, Art Roflmao is one of my favorite photographers at DPC.
He also shares himself in so many ways to so many, especially me, and I value his friendship so very much.
He is also a comic, and quite funny, and often has me in stitches.....
Ken also shares his knowledge in many ways with so many of us.
Most of all he shares his family with us, especially young Riley.....
His images are amazing and gives us a true insight into his talent, especially with ideas and processing skills.
His Woodies and ducks are amazing.
His Self portraits are funny, often serious, and just dam good to look at.....
Ken is a huge part of why I love DPC.....
Thanks you mate.....

Yep, what would DPC be without Ken?
A harmonic, peaceful place without disturbing images, ridiculous comments and jacked threads -
fortunately that's not what we want! Thanks for being here, Ken! |
