&lt;p&gt;But the first picture with the black background is very nice, one of the best photos I saw during this Olympics.&lt;/p&gt;

Like others, I've been looking forward everyday to you're blog entry. What's going to happen after the games? Maybe I can put to use what I've learned so far. Sounds like an idea.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks again.&lt;/p&gt;

Your reach for excellence no matter the obstacle mirrors that of the athletes you photograph.&lt;/p&gt;

It is more lively than the other ones. The other ones having blue background are solid as sculptures. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thank you for giving me an insight in your work. It's a real joy to read it.&lt;/p&gt;
