Hi Jim,
Well sir what can I say but, a great big thank you so much for passing on
Dr. Cassani's comments about our Women in Medicine book. To have a woman of
medicine give such positve commentary is very heart warming to say the
least.

But for her to recognize and comment on the use of B&W photography without
the distraction of colours is even more meaningful. It's becoming an obvious
re-action we're receiving from doctors and nurses about how the B&W seems to
show so much more of their profession without them knowing we were there.

Cool! :-) Well some M7's and M6's, Tri-x at 800 and away you go happy
snapping having a wonderful time completely enjoying what you do with great
passion.... being a photojournalist and capturing folks doing their thing!
And more importantly successfully in their eyes. Love it! :-) Would you ever
want it to end? Not on your life! :-)

Thanks again Jim as it's very much appreciated coming from one's peer.
regards,
ted & Sandy
