Thanks! I'll have to take a closer look tonight. Someone on Flickr pointed out that a lot of my shots were similar to Jay Maisel and was wondering if I was trying to emulate him. While I had heard the name before I had never seen any of his work and so it was really kind of neat to find out more about him.

He's a Master. I got to chat with him for a few minutes a few months ago and attended a seminar of his as well. Witty, funny and sharp as a tack.
