Good Morning guys and ladies.

I have been a UHH member since late 2008 or nine, and check the Main Photography postings most every day, but in January of this year was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer and have not felt up to using my camera very much since then. I don't know about the other cancers, but this one really saps your energy, strength and stamina. The good news is that the Doc. says the cancer growths have lessened to 'normal levels' and at least for November has taken me off the chemo, and I'm feeling better, if still weak, and starting to get back into the groove.

Last week my wife asked for a picture of a Cannas flower plant that our kids planted this spring along with some other plants that I was just unable to do. I took the shots and after processing decided to do something I'd never tried before. Both the original print and the PP result are attached; I'd like to get your comments on my attempt. I apparently attached the final PP version before the original,

Pancreatic cancer is a bitch. I’m glad you’re off chemo for now. Hopefully a positive sign of more good things to come. I wish you the best! You did a great job on the flower.

The first is dramatic and is more my liking. Keeping shooting is good therapy. Maybe some table-top photography or more flower and different types of cloth could take you though the blah winter months. Keep positive and keep shooting.

I agree cancer sux. I have had prostate C also for 18 years now. Had turp operation. Plus radiation which really messed with me and for the last 7 or 8 years been on hormone treatment to keep it at bay. Still,it beats the alternative!
