- Website Changes - Since I have updated my copy of Dreamweaver (it's been 8 years...wow) it seems like it is a good idea to update my website. Plans are to separate the portrait and sport portion to a "separate" website. Also planned are improved navigation, enlarging the image previews, etc. I do not plan on adding shopping carts, it is another cost I have to add which in the past did not pay off. You can simply call to place credit card orders as we do now and most people have cell phones. I am looking at websites I like to incorporate some of their features. The changes should be gradual with portraits being first. The other portion will be a major job!

"Autumn Dreams"
"Safe Harbor"
- Eight images released from Nova Scotia including the Gallery Edition print of "Safe Harbor" which is limited to five prints. Released are many of my favorites including;

"End of the Club"
-
New Gallery Edition added - The "End of the Club" is a 3 image composite in Black and White now in the Gallery Editions. The beautiful light and the ruins with past signs of leisure attracted me to this image. Click on image for more info.

New Panorama from the Smokies - A panorama image of a lovely river birch arching over the stream in Tremont is now being offered. Click on image for more info.

"Room With A View"

- Limited Edition Size Change! I have reduced the size of the editions of both the Signature and Gallery Edition prints. The Signature Editions are now just 40 prints, formerly 300 prints. Gallery Editions are now just 5, previous size was 25. Prints issued after 11/1/10 will show the new numbers. For those of you who own prints already there is and additional certificate you may print to show the new edition size. The prints or certifications will not be reprinted, however if your print now reads 5 of 300 you may rest assured that it is now 5 of 40. New Edition Certification. I will never increase the size of a released edition and only make changes I feel will increase the value of the prints.

Tennessee Conservationist Cover - The cover and back cover of the Tennessee Conservationist November / December issue feature Trace of Light images. Cover images are provided without cost for conservation purposes.
The Waters of Tenn... By Michael Serkownek
- Shimmer - The first Trace of Light book is now being offered through Blurb. This book contains 44 beautiful images of water in its various states from across Tennessee. It is 40 pages and measures approximately 8 x 10. It is available in soft cover and hard cover and may be previewed and ordered by clicking the above link.

Strand Gallery
Strand Art Gallery - I now have several framed prints at the new Strand Gallery in Hohenwald, Tennessee. I know Hohenwald is not exactly on the path to anywhere but if you doing a day trip, perhaps to Amber Falls or Keg Spring wineries, or following the "Nashville Trace" or even the Natchez Trace Parkway this would make a short side trip. Hours are presently 10 - 4 Tuesday through Saturday and 1 to 4 on Sunday, follow US 412 to Hohenwald and it is on the left as you enter town.
