sara from whitebox - ok, so i am out of the loop. i have not been on any blogs lately. i did not know you were going to africa! look at you, lookin all cute while doing construction.

Tira J - Incredible! I have been enjoying all of these posts Melissa!!! Okay, small world, David Edmonson has been my good friend's family photographer for probably 30+ years in Dallas. Love that wind blown look! Can't wait to see more!

Brian Palmer - Great work documenting the process Melissa, I'm sure many people have no clue as to what goes into making the filters. That's wonderful all of you from the workshop helped out, I know it means a lot to the people there that your not just going to take pictures, give a 'what's up' to the locals, and bounce. That alone makes the trip over a success.

Amy - I've really been enjoying your photos from your trip! Thanks for sharing!
