Digital BW, The Print

Hi Roman...

Sounds like you are taking this all kind of personally.  If he is in your neighborhood do go over.  Get to know him.  You'll probably get more than you paid for.  Relax a bit.

  Subject: [Digital BW] Re: Dry Creek Photo (hope somone can help)


  I find this disturbing....not because you got profiles, but because 
  I sent 2 targets to this person as well as paid with pay pal.

  I always used Dry Creek photos site for learning about color and 
  respected the information gotten there.

  I sent this over a month ago...have written him 5 times and I get no 
  response at all.

  Does anyone have a valid contact information for this person?

  This person is actually local to my home here in hillsboro, and I am 
  tempted to walk over an knock on their door. Unusual for 
  me....usually very easy to get along with...but no response can get 
  rather frustrating.

  ANy tip would be appreciated.

  Roman
