I came here via EP forums links. Robert and Jeff shoot like I used to and, hopefully, continue to but without the financial and business success behind me. Jeff's comment about keeping your files is right on the money! I look back at what I was doing in the 1950s right up to yesterday, and I fully agree with him. I graduated from RIT in 1963 and again in 2001. The first stint was without a single class in business, the second was to get a MFA but was refused into the program by the photo dept. So I left with a MS, which was nice but to teach full time most colleges want a MFA. Even painters can teach photography but not photographers. Anyway, sometime I hope to attend a few sessions with APA, ASMP, and EP folks in NYC, LA, and Chicago. Not much really going on here in the Houston area. Thanks again.
