I met Derrick here on Flickr and admire his fantastic work in all of his photography. He is truly a pro's pro! Even though he is a pro and Im just starting out, I was amazed at how much he is willing to help others and how much knowledge he has. I have sent him numerous questions and communicated my concerns to him and he is always willing to help me. His input is invaluable as there is a sea of information out there, but to find a source like Derrick who is accurate and truthful is very difficult to do. One of the many things I appreciate is that Derrick pulls no punches! He tells you the way it is and thats the way it should be. If you are doing something wrong he will let you know!! The best teachers are that way. I encourage everyone to vist his website and view his photostream. See for yourself how accomplished he is and enjoy his art and skill! thanks Derrick for helping me so much and I look forward to future correspondence with you! my best, Rick
