A really excellent photo, Jim. It should have done better in the snow photos contest than it did. It deftly straddles that fine line between reality and fantasy. I especially like the figure on the right. Gives the piece perspective and is a good counterpoint. -- Joe.

Jim, thanks for taking the time and interest to comment on my photos. Midway Plaisance is an extraordinary photo. I feel as if I am there, although I don't know if I want to be given I am not a fan of cold weather or snow. This photo also brings back memories of a sort of wonderful isolation, trudging through the snow, listening to the quiet, taking in natures display of beauty (in this memory I am a fan of cold weather - getting older, I guess). A great high key photo that tells a wonderful story and brings back memories

Toronto, On - Canada

dear Jim, I watched tens of your artworks, and i will return back to see moor, coz I found that all your works inspiring me, every thing your eyes catch will shift it to a piece of art, your photo for people, animals, urban, etc. are all very, very smart, you always hunt from the Wright angel and that is the main idea of photograph, some thing else, that is the emotion and inspiration in your works full with, which can change softly my sense and my mode. you are really gifted artist, and I fell happy that you are here thank you so much,
