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

[Jay Gould]

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 !

[Roman Kurywczak]

Thanks Jay! Appreciate the dind words!!! Will see you around and I really do look forward to the port with you one day! Hopefully sooner.....than later!

[James Shadle]

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!!!!

[Brendan Dozier]

Thanks Roman & Dave for all your time, support & encouragement. You can tell you both love photography and it shows. Look forward to seeing more of your excellent images in the future! I'm drinking a cold one in your honor!

Cheers!

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.

[Roman Kurywczak]

Thanks Brendan and Dan! The kind words are greatly appreciated! Cheers!!

[Danny J Brown]

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!

[Rachel Hollander]

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,
Sabyasachi

[Phil Ertel]

[Dave Mills]

Hi folks, just saw this and I thank Jay and everyone for the kind words on this post and others. Jay, if your ever on the east coast(near NYC) please let Roman and I know.
Would love to meet you.
Best regards to all...

[Don Lacy]

Roman And Dave, Thank you for help and suggestions on my images you both help me become a better landscape photographer and it is appreciated.

[Norm Dulak]

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.

[Harshad Barve]

Best luck for your future endeavors

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...
