  A father could not be more proud. Great pictures, and now some deserved recognition! Of course there is talent and equipment involved. But the patience required to amass such a portfolio is also far more than most people have or realize that Steve has. Wonderful photographs.

  wow, i cant believe he’s just an amateur! this is exceptionally very original, and im inspired to take these kind of photos. im an amateur myself and these photos just blew me away..im already reaching for my canon! :) one question though, did he edit them by brightening or contrasting the photos?

  While this issue can be very vexed for most people, my thought is that there has to be a middle or common ground that we all can find. I do value that you’ve added pertinent and sound commentary here though. Thank you!
