Hey Barry, you post a lot of great photography. Why not post each new photo into one thread instead of making a new thread every time? It'll be a lot easier to keep track of your work, then. Also, you can wrap img tags around your image and have it show up right in the thread, if you want.

Edit: snip for brevity

I'll convert this thread to be that single thread. Is that okay?
