It was an amazing trip with many beautiful shots. You picked a great backpacking area to be in. And your video work put me in a calm and peaceful mood. Great job Brian. You really don’t give yourself enough credit for what you are doing. Thank you so very much for taking me along again. 😊

Rest is so important. The actual video you shot and chose to share for this trip was breathtaking. To be in a place like that overwhelmed and surrounded by such beauty- how could you not be depleted and want to sleep?

Thanks for thinking of us by keeping us informed. Life isn't a straight line, it waves around a bit, sometimes uncontrollably, but every dip down is never permanent. Sometimes, we've just got to be patient. Best wishes to you, and we'll enjoy whatever you produce.

Brian, I can truly understand. I love going out and doing flower, bird and landscapes but the weather here in the Mojave Desert is too hot ( average 114 - 118 F ) is just a no bueno. This puts me into a unhappy state. When Mother Nature decides to allow us back out, then I know we’ll see some beautiful wildflowers coming from your end. Just relax and don’t worry about anyone else but yourself. Keep it simple my friend. 😊

Brian, love your vlogs…. No need for unnecessary pressure on yourself…. I’m sure we’ll all thoroughly enjoy whatever you’re able to come up with in a way that’s reasonable for you and what you’re able to do. Hang in there… I really enjoy your style of photography - you’re one of the very best…. And an excellent teacher of your craft…

As a photographer who enjoys your work - and saw a lot of it on the walls today in Alpine Physical Therapy - and as a mostly retired psychologist, I really admire your candor and ability to articulate about your struggles with depression. Correspondingly, you do a great job explaining how "behavioral activation" or engagement is so helpful. I love your note about feeling the chemical changes in your brain. My heart is with you Brian. Oh - and as an aging trail runner, i love seeing those trails up the side of Sentinel, University Peaks, etc.

When I retired in June of 2017, I did virtually nothing until I took your Winterscape Photography class. You renewed my passion for photography and for that, I will be eternally grateful. Thank you for being so open with your struggle, and I applaud your victory in this latest bout. Beautiful video of your hike. Is that your own music? It reminds me of whale song.

Thanks so much, Pat. I am so happy to hear about you reconnecting with photography. We are all here to help each other, I suppose. I've always appreciated our chats. Not my music in this one, just a licensed song. I hope to start recording in the next week or so!
