Description
Many thanks to the folks who have inquired after me. A number of you sent sitemails with holiday greetings, please accept my apologies for not replying at that time.
In early November my wife took seriously ill. In the ensuing weeks, the doctors scrambled to figure out what exactly was wrong and how to treat her. I had moments that scared me beyond words. In mid December they tried a new course of action and she pulled out of danger right around Christmas day - a gift truly beyond measure.
She is doing much better now but is still not 100%, so I still won't have much time to work on images or browse your galleries for a month or two. But I wanted to let you know what has been happening - and thank all of you, my Rendo friends, for your concern and support.

nice image..hope your wife stays well.
So good to see a post from you! I'm sorry to hear your wife has been so ill, but glad to know she is recovering! Thoughts and prayers are with you both! Wonderful image, I love the lighting and sense of vigilance in his posture and expression!
excellent :-)
Excellent lighting, great atmosphere! My thoughts are with you!
Beautiful image. The pain in his face and slackness in his posture express so well the feeling of helplessness, when all you can do is wait, and the steadfast resolution to be there if needed. All my best to you and your wife. My thoughts are with you.
Glad to hear she is better... it's funny, my circle of friends here are over the 50 year mark for the average age... We were the generation when the video game came out... we all have something in common with the time and age factor... the sad thing is, we constantly hear one or more of use is on the verge of losing their life... I've been feeling "older" lately.... my Wife wanted to go skiing this last weekend and I would have jumped at it in the 9 years we've been together, but something made me tell her we might get hurt and how are we going to make things happen??? It sucks to think about getting old, so just don't think about it or you won't go skiing - lol
Very realistic, the lighting is perfect!
My prayers are with you and your wife. God bless you both.
I was about to write but you beat me to it. Glad to hear that things are on the upswing. I think you put it perfectly in your image.
Beautiful and fitting image. That's too scary. Sorry for the woes and glad things are looking up.
Very cool image. Had missed seeing you around so thought I would send you a hello.
