Hi Bill, You seem to take much bride in the photo you mentioned here about the Buddhist Women's Association. I must admit it takes a lot of creative juice and devotion to the art to put that much effort in stitching that panoramic gem... I look forward to receiving a copy at your most convenient time. Thank you!

I would be most happy to have a copy of the Bhuddist Women Association. Stitching together 16 photos takes a bit of doing!

admire your work. looking forward to getting this copy. thanx very much. bev jackson, washington, dc

As a professional photographer, it has been my occasional pleasure to make pictures of groups, churches, schools, etc. Seeing Neal Slavin's fine work and his expansion of its category to "group portraits" is wonderful. My last effort in this was the Buddhist Women's Association in a standard pose but set at the base of the massive bodhi tree in Kea`au, Hawai`i, behind their temple. This tree was brought from India many years ago and is a scion of the tree that is at the site of the historic Buddha's enlightenment. It was done with sixteen separate photos put together seamlessly with Photoshop and displayed whole with the women at its base. With your e-mail address, I could send you a small copy of this 44" x 27" "portrait."
