Leaving BPN
I wanted to let everyone know that I am resigning as moderator of the OOTB Forum. I have had a great run here on BPN and have made many life-long friends. I have been inspired by many of you including and especially the late Dave Phillips. It is a sad day for me but I leave with lots of happy memories . I wish everyone lots of happiness and success with their photography. The folks in OOTB have been like a second family to me; I hope that we can all stay connected online.
No, It can't be so! You will be missed dearly! Thank you for all of your contributions here! Hope you will still be a participant?
Denise, you know how sad I am but I respect your decision and wish you all the best. Hopefully you'll be able to participate from time to time. Your creativity is unparalleled and is such an inspiration to us all.

Ah, Denise . . . It was you who introduced me to this forum. I'm sure going to miss you and all your contributions, here. Thanks for everything you've done.
Consider this a cyber-hug.

Thank you, Denise, for you valuable support and help here with your OOTB family. Your encouragement has meant the world to me. I will miss you and know you will find many exciting and challenging ways to fill the days ahead. My bucket list still includes meeting you one day and until then I’m so glad your website and blog are there for a great cyber connection.
Many thanks Denise for all of your hard work, support and encouragement. Hope you find much success in all of your endeavors.
As all stated above, you will be so missed. Thank you for all your input and guidance to me and others.
Hi Denise, a sad, sad, day for sure. Your encouragement and support has always been greatly appreciated and your creativity so very, very inspirational. I will miss you here in the OOTB forum and hope that you will stop by from time to time. Chat soon. All the very best
A sad day indeed. I will never be able to express all that you have done for me.
Best wishes in all your endeavors. Your influence here will be felt for a long time. Thank you for everything you have done at BPN.
I'm in shock. I'm sad. I wish it weren't so.
This is a huge loss for the BPN community.
I hope your leaving means you have many, many other photographic endeavors. I understand that one must move on and take the next step in one's life. I wish you the very best, and I hope to be able to continue to enjoy and benefit from your marvelous images on your blog.
Thank you all for the well wishes and your kindness. I appreciate all of your inspiration, comments and thought throughout my time on BPN. Lots of love to you all, denise
Not sure why you decided to leave but you will be missed...take care. Stay in touch. Your Friend, Paul Lagasi
You will be missed!
Hi Denise, we will miss you!
Denise, I just got caught up and saw this. You will be missed. Thanks for all your help through the years, and best of luck in the future.
Denise,
As the music lyric goes: "You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone ..."
That's how a lot of us at BPN feel right now.
