It did not make me cry but it is damn impressive!

I'm not much of a crier. The only time I've ever cried is at the first ultrasound for my first little girl.

But that's a very interesting story and very inspirational. Don't ever give up.

It is definitely moving, but I didn't cry. But I did let out a gasp loud enough to startle my husband, who immediately wanted to know what was wrong, and then almost as immediately assumed it had something to do with our Christmas dinner, still in the oven.

It amazes me that he kept going for that one shot he'd pictured in his mind. Beautiful result. Morris' is cool, too, but I think I like Bourne's better.

As a photographer myself, I can't believe that after twelve years of trying to get theis photo, rahter than hanging in a gallery and selling it as a fine art photograph, he is selling it as a very tacky photo-canvas on the internet, I think this is just a PR stunt to sell images, no professional photographer would ever sell his/her art printed on canvas, hav eyou ever seen that it is the most tacky display method, and in 20 years it will be the equivilant of the elvis paintings on velvet. I know that some people will print on canvas to hide the imperfections with the texture. I wondre if that is what he's doing. It is a pretty mediocre photo for 12 years of work. So to answer your question the moment I clicked on his website and saw that he was a photo canvas photographer I immediatley broke into tears, there are many true stories of real photographers braving adverse weather or warlike conditions to get the perfect photograph, ansel adams sometimes phtographed the same view over the course of years just to get the clouds just right, he actually printed and framed and displayed his photos as if they he respected himself...photos on canvas! I'm crying!
