Fred - I echo the comments of everyone else that your photos are outstanding. For someone like me with no experience in micromounts and microphotos, they are like magical visions of another world. I find myself trying to visualize what your specimens must look like without magnification, compared to what you capture in these images. I look forward to visiting your website soon. Well done!

- Tracy

Salut Fred -

You asked me a question earlier and I'm sorry for not answering it. I do not know much about forums in the US, the only forum I participate in regularly is Jordi's. Pehaps someone else can tell you of others - are you looking for general mineral forums or forums on micromounts/microphotos?

Also, please email me at balagan29(at)yahoo(dot)com. I wish to speak with you about some specimens which might interest you to photograph and/or exchange. I think I have an opportunity to have them hand-delivered to Zurich next month and from there posted to Geneva (much better than overseas mail). Feel free to write to me in French, I assume it is OK to reply in English. Thanks.

- Tracy
