    Default Roman Kurywczak / Dave Mills - Thank You - You Too Will Be Missed

    Hi, I have just learned that Roman is no longer a Landscape Moderator on BPN.

    Roman, there is no doubt that your advice greatly assisted me, and I am sure others, in shortening their learning curves to producing better landscape images. Artie and Co. will have to look far and wide to find Landscape Photographers of your caliber and Dave's caliber willing to give of their time as you two did to share and teach.

    Looking forward to your critiques in the future here on BPN, and on other forums like Nature Scapes.Net and Nature Photographers.Net.

    Good luck in the future; may your career flourish and the Port flow !
    Cheers, Jay

Capturing and Processing landscapes and seascapes allows me to express my vision and reality of Nature.

    Jay,
    Roman and Dave both had circumstances that made them unable to contribute as moderators.

    They both were (as Staff) and still are assets (now as members) to BPN.
    Their contributions as staff will be missed, but I'm glad they both are able to find time to contribute as members.

    Thanks Roman and Dave for your service to BPN and it's membership!!!!

    Dave gone and now Roman?
    In the short time I have been here (about 9 months) they have both been so generous with their comments, critiques,
    and just info in general and both such gentleman.
    Thank you Roman for all your advice and kind words.
    I look forward to future photos from you, I hope you will continue to post and give us all those great images to look at.

    Hey Roman,

    I always enjoyed you as a moderator who didn't take himself too seriously but knew his "shitzo" when it came to landscapes! Good luck my friend!

    Roman - I can only echo the above sentiments and thank you for making me a better landscape photographer (though still plenty of room to improve). Your gentle comments and suggestions are much appreciated. Looking forward to your continued participation and to your images.

    Thanks again,
    Rachel

    Hi Roman,
    Good luck in your future endeavour. BPN has been able to generate a good fellow feeling and one can immediately see from the comments how each one feels when someone leaves.

    Any plans of coming to India?

    All the best!

    Cheers,

    Roman's tremendous incite and expertise will be sorely missed. People of that caliber cannot be replaced. Although I have seldom contributed to the Landscape forum, Roman's comments and suggestions in the Macro and Flora forum have been invaluable to me. It's very sad to know that he will be unable to continue to provide such guidance.

    Hi Guys

    I am relatively new to the landscape site but I too would like to thank you both for your gentle help and encouragement. Be assured your words will continue to ring bells in my head next time I am trying to frame up my next landscape shot, and for that I will be eternally grateful...

    best regards

    Thanks Roman and Dave for all your contributions.

    Roman always enjoyed your company and your generous lessons on night photography. Good luck my friend.

    Wow, only just saw this thread. Dave and Roman … both fantastic moderators and so, so helpful with great knowledge. Moderators come, moderators go, but good teachers linger on endlessly in the work we produce. Thanks and good luck.
