    My Birthday Present

    My birthday was on the 1st of the month, and my girlfriend surprised me with a sign. She has been pretty supportive of my photography hobby and she knows that I would love to make a career out of it one of these days. So for my birthday, she had a sign made for my future photo business. The photo in the center is a waterfall shot I took last fall. One of our favorite photos.

    I'm not sure if the city will let me put it in the front yard do to zoning issues so I will have to do some checking on that. I'm not really ready for that just yet tho. Still a lot of things I need to accomplish before hanging out my shingle... For the time being, it's sitting on top of my monitor.

    Nice! Hmmm... my birthday is coming up in about a month here. Maybe the wife would do something as thoughtful as that for me!

    Wow that a nice looking sign. It's great when those around us are so supportive of our photography. Your a lucky guy.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Thanks for all the comments everyone. I love the sign and wish I had a store front to hang it in front of. Someday....
