Have you ever seen any of Mal James' (Greg's photographer) work (his still work). I have to say I was impressed with his camera work and the way he related what he saw in Iraq. A photographer tells a story twice. He take the picture and then in the process of the process (darkroom) he/she lives it all over again. I could see Mal James taking pictures in his head as he related his story to us in "Eyewitness to War". Powerful stuff. I wonder if he has a site with his still photos. Hmmm... I may have to check that out. Anyway - you have talent.. get goin' girl and get out there and take those pictures :-D . -EAJ

Melissa- just dropping off a note about your photographs. I never notice that you had a site for them before. I just wanted to let you know that the one of you is the best. It is the most honest and tells a story. True, I tend to lean towards photojournalism rather than art shots - which is rather unusual since my own artwork leans towards the abstract. But to me there is nothing more powerful then a camera in the hands of a good storyteller with a heart. Could be that is one of the reason's you are a Rick Leventhal fan.
