It appears you and I have the same goals in mind. I don't, or maybe can't, paint pictures, but I do make visual data displays for a living. At this time, I fill my days with making complicated reviews of data simpler for the eye to see. I support my family with it and maybe one day I can do things that can make me happy for a time. It's good to see you doing well.

Just one formality though. You mentioned all pictures are yours except the one you featured inside. Can you please add a link to the image source for that one? I can't tell which one you're referring to. Have a good one. I bring this up because there's another person in this week's contest where he did not add any references to their images. For this person, I'm waiting on their response before doing anything further.
