Thank you. By the way I just spoke at the SAR group here in Prescott AZ. I was born in VT but lived in Feeding Hills MA until I came to AZ in 91

Nice but brings back sad memories....Rich
I can relate. I go to the Vet Center for PTSD

Hello Dr. Nikon,
At first I wasn’t going to say anything to you about changing my image, but I feel I should. Proper etiquette would be “never change someone’s image without permission. You may have thought you did something right but in essence, you took a quality image and destroyed its value. If I was the client I would never purchase this image. Just look what you did to my facial features.

Hi Bruce!
Before I even saw your reply to Dr Nikon, I was going to write and say I loved the way you did this portrait. It's perfect and just beautiful. Dr Nikon's version is harsh and unfeeling; plus, who would think they had the right to rework another person's photo?? That's disgusting.

PS I missed the part that said that was a portrait of you, taken by a friend. Bruce, it is wonderful.
Thank you Deborah for your kind response. Not everyone understands photographic etiquette. It's up to us that do understand to enlighten others. I would recommend Dr. Nikon to join his local chapter of professional photographers association or (PPA) Professional Photographers of America.

What a perfect portrait. You must be sh happy with your friend's work.
Yes, he did a very nice job. It tells the story we want our viewers to feel when they go to the website.
